I knew a guy who built this back in 2008, except he called it “Personas” and used it for scaling his network of spambots across social media sites. We’ve come a long way!
It does look like a cool product though, and I support the philosophy behind it (“client side first,” or “block me if you can”). Companies don’t get to dictate which user agent I use to access their sites. So it follows that they can’t dictate how I call my user agent, like if I choose to delegate its operation to an LLM.

Popular sites will adapt their anti-scraping techniques to this software. And, finally, you have the issue about the network (IPs) when finally you need to use the same techniques of spambots.
