BrowserOS neo

The Missing Browser for Claude, Cowork & Codex

Visit BrowserOS neo

BrowserOS neo (formerly BrowserClaw) is a free, open-source browser that runs locally on macOS and Windows, built for AI agents to perform web tasks using your logged-in accounts. Agents work in their own tabs within a secondary browser, leaving your main browser and open tabs untouched, while session history, screenshots, and replays are stored as local files on your machine.

Agents connect via MCP, the open standard for AI integrations, with one-click setup for Claude Code, Cowork, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Zed, GitHub Copilot, OpenClaw, and Hermes. Agents receive compact page snapshots rather than raw HTML and batch actions to reduce round trips. A new-tab dashboard shows multiple agents working in parallel across isolated tabs, and every run is recorded as a scrubbable video for live viewing and replay. Logins can be imported from Chrome in one step.

BrowserOS neo is intended for developers and users who want AI agents to handle browser work alongside their own browsing. It is free and open source under the AGPL-3.0 license, with users bringing their own AI provider keys. It runs alongside BrowserOS as a separate product if you use that as your daily browser.
