Overview
- Complete complex browser automation tasks up to 3.45x faster by letting AI agents execute multiple in-page JavaScript actions concurrently instead of one tool call at a time.
- Keep working in Chrome without interruption while your AI agent operates in a separate workspace using Spaces, which prevents task collisions between user and agent sessions.
- Automate LinkedIn, Reddit, Instagram, and Facebook tasks that require a logged-in session by sharing your browser state with agents like Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor.
- Get reliable snapshots from cross-origin iframes, shadow DOM, and third-party SDK widgets like Stripe and Salesforce through the custom Chromium engine built directly inside the browser.
- Reduce token costs by eliminating retry loops on content that web fetch and JavaScript shims cannot reach, such as React portals and embedded third-party widgets.
- Switch from Chrome instantly with one-click import of your existing setup, keeping your browsing habits, logins, and extensions intact.
- Run agent tasks in isolated workspaces while you continue browsing in your own space, enabling parallel multitasking without interference.
- Drive AI agents directly after installing the ego-browser skill, compatible with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, and other code-writing agents.

ego (lite) aids AI agents by sharing users' logged-in browser states, enabling these agents to perform browser automation tasks efficiently without any disturbance. It helps AI agents to run web automation tasks across multiple platforms like LinkedIn, Reddit, Instagram, and Facebook, thereby filling operational gaps through web automation. The browser can also handle multiple in-page actions simultaneously through simple lines of JavaScript, enhancing the completion speed of complex browser tasks.
Multitasking in ego (lite) is managed effortlessly by allowing agents to execute multiple in-page actions with simple JavaScript lines. It efficiently performs several operations concurrently, thereby drastically reducing the completion time of complex browser tasks. The 'Spaces' feature in ego (lite) circumvents task collisions by providing separate workspaces for users and their agents within the same browser environment.
The custom Chromium engine of ego (lite) enhances the browser's performance by ensuring faster and reliable snapshots. It can reach into cross-origin iframes, shadow DOM, and third-party SDK widgets. The engine is built inside the browser which makes snapshots come back faster, ref actions run more reliably and saves tokens.
'Spaces' is a unique feature offered by ego (lite) which provides separate workspaces for users and their agents in the same browser environment. This approach effectively circumvents task collisions, allowing the agent and the user to work concurrently without impacting each other's tasks. It also allows the agent to run tasks in its own space, facilitating parallel multitasking.
ego (lite) helps in maintaining users' browsing habits by importing users' existing Chrome setup in one click. This means the browser mirrors the functionalities of Chrome, providing a seamless transition for the user from their usual browser interface. It works just like Chrome, so users' browsing habits do not need to change.
As an agent browser, ego (lite) allows your agents to do anything you can do in a browser you're logged into, including running tasks on social media platforms like LinkedIn and Instagram. It fills operational gaps through web automation and helps the AI agents to handle tasks competently, reducing both time and token cost.
The task efficiency in ego (lite) is achieved through several features. Its multitasking capability allows AI agents to execute multiple in-page actions concurrently, thus reducing the completion time for complex browser tasks. The custom Chromium engine ensures quicker and reliable snapshots and reaches into cross-origin iframes, shadow DOM, and third-party SDK widgets. Additionally, 'Spaces' prevent task collisions, enabling users and agents to work simultaneously without disturbance.
Yes, ego (lite) has the added advantage of importing users' existing Chrome setup in one click, providing a seamless transition from their usual browser interface. It maintains their browsing habits and provides a platform similar to Chrome, allowing users to continue their browsing activities without any hassle.
ego (lite) permits AI agents to execute multiple in-page actions with simple JavaScript lines. The use of JavaScript facilitates quick and efficient completion of multiple tasks simultaneously as compared to one tool call at a time. It provides a platform where complex browser tasks can be finished up to 3.45 times faster than other agent browsers, thus saving time and transaction tokens.
ego (lite)'s semantic snapshot, built inside its custom Chromium engine, can reach third-party SDK widgets like Stripe, Salesforce, Intercom, and React portals. It implies that web fetch and JavaScript shims generally give up on third-party SDK widgets and the AI agent ends up retrying against content that was never really there, burning tokens for nothing.
