About
Aside is an AI-powered browser agent that autonomously navigates and interacts with the web on your behalf. It achieved state-of-the-art scores on multiple agentic browsing benchmarks, outperforming competitors like Fable. Built by a YC-backed team, it's designed to handle complex browsing tasks that typically require human intervention.
What it does
A founder's post on X describes Aside as an AI browser built on a Chromium fork, where an agent works inside the user's own logged-in accounts. The post says the agent drives pages by writing Playwright-style JavaScript in a REPL, keeps credentials away from the model, and pauses for approval on sensitive actions.
