your browser agents can now complete online purchases without ever touching card data.
agents on KERNEL now pay on checkout pages using aliases, not card data. we swap in the real credential at egress, so card numbers never touch your agent's runtime or context.
the bottleneck for what AI agents can accomplish on the web is shifting from model capabilities to access
KERNEL + 1Password lets your agent securely log in to the websites you use, without ever exposing your credentials to the model
KERNEL now supports @1password for agents. your agent can sign in without ever seeing your password.
it asks for the login it needs. you approve the request in 1password. the password goes straight into the KERNEL browser and never to the agent.
another practical use case for computer-use agents: tourist visa paperwork.
congrats to @alymoursy for launching @VeezaAI on yc today.
powered by @usekernel browsers.
introducing KERNEL for start-ups. you build agents, we cover the browsers.
early-stage teams shipping web agents get up to $5k in credits. available for start-ups backed by yc, a16z speedrun, or accel.
personal shoppers that index every product in real time. job searches built around you. our ceo @juecd__ on why agents need reliable access to act on the live web, on @redpandadata's hello, agent!
join us for durable ai, october edition. wed 10/21, 5:30pm, sf.
lightning talks from @temporalio, KERNEL and @oodleai, followed by networking, food, and drinks. request your spot today.
sites without an api don't have to stay that way. on KERNEL, an agent writes a helper once in the browser repl, reuses it, and saves it as a webmcp tool.
“we tested every browser use product on the market and KERNEL was the clear winner. implementation was a breeze.”
@FDavidsonT, founder of @OdessiaTravel, on why their ai travel agent runs on KERNEL browsers.
We’re months away from AGI and the leisure economy’s about to explode
Today, we’re launching Odessia, an always-on concierge for travel and experiences
Prices are spiking, places are getting crowded. Odessia is your cheat code to going places

introducing config registry. give your agents recommended browser and proxy settings to target sites.
config registry made 96% of previously inaccessible sites reachable in pre-launch testing.
now available. details in the thread.
@alekseykorshuk, head of ml at @coframe on config registry:
"about three in four agent sessions on those sites used to hit a bot wall until we found the right browser settings. […] nobody, human or agent, spends time on browser configuration anymore."
KERNEL is now in @Replit's integration library. connect once and replit agent can access the internet for general tasks, or build apps with browser automation built in.
Six weeks. $60,000+ in prizes.

Full house at the @neondatabase personal agents hack! @Techweek_
We’re going to see an explosion of personal agents now that the infra is ready… Give your agent search with @ExaAILabs, a browser and the internet with @usekernel, persistent memory with @neondatabase, and its own computer with @flydotio.
I think my own end state may look like one conductor agent managing an orchestra of specialized agents. I saw 100+ of these ideas today while judging - travel, food, health, education, finance, companionship, self development, etc
