> Looking for the browser your agents drive? That is **[BrowserOS neo](README.md)**, and it ships from this same repo.
BrowserOS is a free, open-source Chromium fork with an AI agent built into every new tab. Ask it to summarise a page, click through a flow, extract data, or run a scheduled task, and it uses 20+ built-in tools plus 40+ app integrations to get the work done. Bring your own AI keys or run everything locally with Ollama.
Every AI browser today asks you to sign into their cloud and hand over your data. BrowserOS is the one that doesn't. Same daily browser you already use, with a helpful agent one keystroke away.

## Why BrowserOS over the alternatives?
- **Not Chrome with an AI extension.** Extensions can't touch the browser chrome, can't run scheduled background tasks, can't ship the 20+ built-in tools that the agent uses natively. BrowserOS builds the agent into Chromium itself.
- **Not Comet, Atlas, or Dia.** Those AI browsers route your prompts through their cloud with their model. BrowserOS runs on your machine with your AI keys. Your data stays yours.
