Automa

Automa automates your browser by connecting blocks, which means the work happens in the tab you are already looking at rather than in a separate headless runner somewhere else.

You assemble a workflow out of blocks and run it, or decide in advance when it should execute. The same workflow can fill in a form, repeat a task you would otherwise do by hand, capture a screenshot or pull data out of a page.

The block catalog covers jobs people repeat constantly.

• Form filling: complete the same fields without typing them again.
• Scraping: pull website data out into a structured result.
• Screenshots: capture pages as a step inside a workflow.
• Scheduling: set when an automation runs instead of triggering it yourself.
• Marketplace: browse, download and share workflows with other users.
• Extension Builder: generate a standalone Chrome extension from an Automa workflow.

Builds are produced separately for Chrome and Firefox from the same source. In Chrome you enable developer mode and load the build directory as an unpacked extension; in Firefox you load the manifest as a temporary add-on from the debugging page. Development runs on pnpm, and a small getPassKey.js file has to exist under the source utilities directory before the dev or build scripts will work.
