Show HN: Rover – Embeddable web agent

https://www.rtrvr.ai/blog/10-billion-proof-point-every-website-needs-ai-agent
8•arjunchint•1d ago
Rover is the world's first Embeddable Web Agent, a chat widget that lives on your website and takes real actions for your users. Clicks buttons. Fills forms. Runs checkout. Guides onboarding. All inside your UI.

One script tag. No APIs to expose. No code to maintain.

We built Rover because we think websites need their own conversational agentic interfaces as users don't want to figure out how your site works. If they don't have one then they are going to be disintermediated by Chrome's or Comet's agent.

We are the only Web Agent with a DOM-only architecture, thus we can setup an embeddable script as a harness to take actions on your site. Our DOM-native approach hits 81.39% on WebBench.

Beta with embed script is live at rtrvr.ai/rover.

Built by two ex-Google engineers. Happy to answer architecture questions.

We have seen people hire consultants to build RAG pipelines, maintain them only to be QA Agent when the world is shifting losing traffic to the likes of ChatGPT and Google comes up with a protocol that makes you do more work with WebMCP essentially maintain a lot of APIs for your UI and DBs. Rover is the answer to these painpoints. No RAG pipelines, just one script tag your users engage, retain, get work done on your website without ever leaving it and fully conversational.

Code written by LLMs, website copy written by LLMs trashing competitors, Hacker News post written by LLMs, as if it were for LinkedIn. AI images everywhere. I dunno man, this is really sloppy.
