Kombai can launch, access, and operate a Chrome browser, enabling you to test development websites & web applications, and perform automated browser-based operations. The Kombai agent operates within its own dedicated browser profile to keep it separate from your regular web browsing. As a result, it appears as a distinct application in your dock and won’t have any of your accounts logged in. You can manually perform browser operations using element selection tools using the Kombai Browser Extension or let Kombai autonomously control the browser to perform tasks and test applications.

Browser Extension

Use the Kombai Browser Extension to visually edit CSS styles and send DOM elements back to Kombai as context.

Autonomous agent operations

Let Kombai autonomously navigate, click, and interact with web pages to execute tests and tasks.
