Overview

Skyvern runs browser workflows using vision and LLM reasoning rather than DOM selectors, so automations are meant to survive UI changes. It logs into portals, fills forms, downloads and parses documents, and extracts data as JSON or CSV, handling CAPTCHAs, 2FA and proxy routing. Workflows are built by chat, SOP upload, browser recording, a visual builder or the Python and TypeScript SDKs.

Best for: Teams automating logins, form fills and data pulls on web portals that expose no API
Pricing: Free tier with 5,000 credits/month, then Hobby at $29/month and Pro at $149/month, with custom Enterprise pricing
Runs on: WebSelf-hostedCLI
