# Otto by Platoona Otto is an open-source browser agent that interacts with websites like a human. Tell Otto what you want to do, and it clicks, types, scrolls, and navigates for you. No coding required. --- ## Overview Otto watches your screen and controls your browser (or your entire Mac) to complete tasks you describe in plain English. It's like having a helpful assistant that can actually use your computer. **Built by [Platoona](https://platoona.com?utm_source=otto-github)** — a simple way to connect your apps and automate repetitive work without writing code. --- > **Heads up:** Otto is an AI agent that controls your browser and computer. It's a young project and things might break. Avoid using it with sensitive data or critical tasks. Use at your own risk. --- ## Chromium Extension Works with Chrome, Brave, Arc, Edge, and other Chromium browsers. > **Note:** Manual installation is temporary while we await Chrome Web Store approval.
