Your agents suck when using the web because 85% of it doesn't have an API. Browserbase gives them everything they need to do work online. Leading AI companies like Ramp, Lovable, and Clay trust us to power agents that do real work on behalf of real people. With a single API key, your agent gets everything it needs to navigate the wild web: browsers, search, fetch, identity, a sandbox runtime, and model gateway. Stop waiting on integrations, build agents that can browse and interact with the web just like humans.

Yesterday, Airtable got acquired for $1.285B by Bending Spoons. What people don't know is that Hyperagent spun out into it's own company. Howie Liu (Howie Liu) is going all in on agents. On this episode of Navigators, filmed a few weeks ago, I sat down with Howie to talk through Hyperagent, why the product form factor has to structurally change with every leap in model capability, and the lean, agent-first companies being born out of all of it. 00:00 Why every model leap forces the product to change shape 02:51 Spinning Hyperagent out of Airtable 05:56 Why Hyperagent bets on horizontal, against the conventional wisdom 10:45 OpenClaw and the overnight-agent stories 13:34 Hyperagent is to OpenClaw what the Macintosh was to Linux 14:57 Why Howie built the Hyperagent MVP himself over the holidays 18:18 "Harness Squared": why the real value lives above the model 28:57 Hyperagent and the rise of lean, agent-first companies Checkout Navigators, our new pod on Youtube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts!

I've been using Claude Code completely wrong. I gave it a custom skill and Browser CLI tools and letting it do work for me. It can open pages, click buttons, fill in forms all from your authenticated browser. Just published it to the marketplace, install it in 2 commands.

You don't need to pay $200 for AI. We're launching Open Operator - an open source reference project that shows how easy it is to add web browsing capabilities to your existing AI tool. It's early, slow, and might not work everywhere. But it's free and open source! 🔗👇

The meeting room setup at Reinvent is so dystopian. Feels like I’m in the B2B SaaS version of Severance.

"Even after I set up my OpenClaw ... I didn't really know what to do with it." Gusto Co-Founder Edward Kim says most AI products suffer from the "Blank Canvas Problem", where they have many capabilities but it's up to the user to figure out what to do. Great products solve this problem and automate things that the user is already doing.
