Show HN: Browser AI agent platform designed for reliability

https://github.com/nottelabs/notte
28•ogandreakiro•3h ago
We’re very excited to share something we’ve been building. Notte https://www.notte.cc/ is a full-stack browser agent platform built to reliably automate a wide range of workflows.

Browser agents aren’t new, but what is still hard is covering real-world flows reliably. The inspiration for Notte was to make a full-featured platform that bridges the agent reliability gap. We’ve packaged everything via a singe API for ease of use:

- Site Interactions - Observe website states, scrape data and execute actions

- Structured Output - Get data in your exact format with Pydantic models

- Stealth browser sessions - built-in CAPTCHA solving, proxies, and anti-detection

- Hybrid workflows - Combine scripting and AI agents to reduce costs and improve reliability

- Secrets vaults - Credential management to store emails, passwords, MFA tokens, SSO, etc.

- Digital personas - Digital identities with unique emails, phones for account creation workflows

With these tools, Notte allows you to automate difficult tasks like account creation, form filling, work on authenticated dashboards. Close compatibility with Playwright allows you to cut LLM costs and improve execution speed by mixing web automation primitives and include agents only for specific parts that require reasoning and adaptability.

Here’s a short YouTube demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1CzmfpdzaQ

If any of this sounds interesting, you can run your first agent following our quickstart on GitHub https://github.com/nottelabs/notte. Or play around with our free plan through our Notte Console: https://console.notte.cc/

We’d love to hear if there’s anything else required before you’d try or trust it on your own workflows :)

for the hybrid workflows, curious how do you decide which parts need AI reasoning vs can be hardcoded? is it adaptive or manual config?
ogandreakiro•1h ago
right now it's hardcode - you write a web automation script where at some parts you have a very specialized agent to take the very few steps in your workflow that require reasoning/adaptability. Future: we're trying to make this process automatic.

Looks good, excited to try this together with the CDP feature. If it works well we can add it to our (TestingBot) integration/documentation.

Hey! Sure happy to create a shared integration with TestinBot - shoot me an email so we can discuss andrea@notte.cc :)

just tried to use it to extract data from hyatt.com

completely failed

another hype but actually doesn't work browser agent.

ogandreakiro•1h ago
hey - thanks for trying out. not sure what you're trying to extract from hyatt.com but just naively tested the most basic agent (https://github.com/nottelabs/notte?tab=readme-ov-file#run-in...) with simple prompt task="scrape data from hyatt.com landing page" and it worked perfectly:

answer=Successfully navigated to hyatt.com and closed the cookie consent. The page content includes navigation links (Explore, Offers, Meetings & Events, Loyalty Program, Language, Sign In or Join), a search form with inputs for City/Address/Landmark/Airport/Hotel, Check-in and Check-out dates, and options for rooms/guests and special rates. Below the search form, there are sections for 'Earn bonus points at new hotels', 'Limited-Time Offer: Earn 2 Free Nights + 25,000 Bonus Points', 'More Places to Discover' with specific hotel examples (Park Hyatt Auckland, Hyatt Regency London - The Churchill, 7Pines Resort Ibiza, Hyatt Centric Murano Venice), 'Join World of Hyatt' with benefits, and various promotional sections like 'Incredible offers, incredible places', 'Plan a summer of more', 'Outdoor adventure awaits', and 'Wellbeing your way'. The page also lists different Hyatt brands categorized into Luxury, Lifestyle, Inclusive, Classics, and Essentials. At the bottom, there are links for Reservations, Customer Service, Corporate Sites, Explore More, and Connect with Hyatt (social media links), along with legal information (Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions, Cookie Center, Security & Safety, Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking, Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information)

The pricing page mentions how many credits you get but not what a credit does or gets you. Could you elaborate on that?
