    Hey, sorry about that! Some AUR packages share cursor in a way that isn't forward+backwards compatible across releases. We recommend using our official AppImage from https://cursor…

    They've improved performance dramatically in the last few weeks, might have fixed your issues.

    Cursor has the best Tab model, and I feel like their lead there has kept growing - they're doing some really cool things there. https://cursor.com/blog/tab-rl I wonder how much the…

    Coming soon! Thanks for commenting, helps inform prioritization :)

    Sorry about that! I don't see any matching errors from 2 hours ago in our logs - if you reach out to the contact@ email address with the email you used in Autotab, I'd be happy to …

    Yes, Autotab can reason over the state of applications and the data it is seeing. You can also teach it to do certain steps only in specific cases. If you wanted Autotab to reconci…

    If by pixel level you mean vision-first understanding and control of the UI then you’ve misunderstood my comment - Autotab primarily uses vision to reason about screens and take ac…

    Quoting my cofounder from another thread: For 2FA, different users take different approaches. Everything from teaching Autotab to pull auth codes from their email, to setting inter…

    Assuming the bank’s websites look totally different from one another, you’d need open ended exploration to data extraction. We’ve focused more on reliability for repetitive tasks o…

    Agree on the tradeoff between ability to handle novel situations and speed/cost. Autotab uses a “ladder of compute” system that escalates to the minimal level of compute required t…

    Indeed! A little secret: Internally we call the skills/workflows in Autotab macros :) Currently there is a bit of a learning curve for training Autotab to be really reliable in har…

    Thanks! We currently have to manually add Chrome extensions on our side, but plan on supporting users installing arbitrary extensions in the future. So far we’ve found that most ap…

    We are hiring. Feel free to reach out at contact@autotab.com

    Yes, proxies are something we can enable for select customers. If your use case requires them, feel free to reach out at contact@autotab.com

    We use a range of different providers, it really depends on the customer and use case. We only enable the proxy in rare cases that need it for a specific reason.

    Thanks! Our most common use cases are repetitive tasks people have at work, think updating Hubspot with analytics data from an internal tool or reconciling payments between an invo…

    Totally agree, making page loop faster is on the top of our list of things to do! There are cases where you need page loop to do quite a bit of reasoning so it will be this slow un…

    Comment #42200095

    When you run Autotab in the app it runs locally, so no IP blocking issues there. If you want to run it in the cloud eg via API, by default your IP will be from the data center but …

    Depends on how different the flows are for different restaurants. If they're just different names but use the same booking system you'd typically use an input and have Autotab find…

    Also for the modal popup - this is the kind of issue that goes away in run mode because Autotab will escalate to bigger models to self-heal. If the modal pops up frequently you can…

    Comment #42198946

    Thanks! We think of the browser as an authoring tool where you create, test and refine skills. After you've done that, the API is great for cases where you want to incorporate Auto…

    This has been much less of an issue than I would have expected - Autotab is optimized for reasoning heavy tasks in core systems that require high reliability over being really fast…

    Comment #42198758

    Data from external systems can be provided to Autotab in the form of CSV files or string inputs, which can be passed to the API to parametrize skills. However, in most cases, inges…

    Good point, will add pricing information to our website ASAP, had skipped that one in the push to launch (it is only available in the app at the moment)
