Browser Use Launches "100 Apps in 100 Days" Challenge, Declaring Browser as the Web's API

San Francisco, CA – Browser Use, a company specializing in AI-powered browser automation, has announced an ambitious "100 apps in 100 days" initiative to demonstrate its core philosophy: "Browser Use is the API for the entire web." The company, founded in 2024 by Gregor Zunic and Magnus Müller, aims to showcase the versatility and power of its platform in automating online tasks without requiring traditional coding. This challenge follows a significant $17 million seed funding round for the Y Combinator Winter 2025 batch participant.

The challenge highlights Browser Use's commitment to making web interactions accessible for AI agents, enabling users to automate repetitive online workflows. "We will showcase this by creating 100 apps in 100 days," the company stated in a recent tweet, inviting public suggestions for applications. This initiative underscores their vision for a future where users can simply instruct their computers to perform tasks, and the system executes them seamlessly.

Browser Use empowers its intelligent agent to streamline online workflows, offering features like data scraping from complex websites and accurate form filling. The platform addresses common browser automation challenges such as website changes breaking scripts, bot detection, and the complexities of LLM-based scraping. Their hosted solution, Browser Use Cloud, provides proxy rotation, persistent sessions, and parallel instance execution.

The company's open-source project, which has garnered significant attention with over 50,000 stars on GitHub, allows for flexibility with various large language models including Gemini, Sonnet, and Qwen. This dual approach of open-source accessibility and a robust cloud offering positions Browser Use as a key player in the evolving landscape of AI-driven web automation. The "100 apps in 100 days" program is expected to generate diverse examples of practical AI agent applications, further solidifying the browser's role as a universal interface.
