I suspect accuracy is going to vary between domains that LLMs are being applied to Interesting call about validating this against YAML / TOML / CSV / HCL. HTML was natural for us because we're dealing with web data, so t

I've been using briefer for the past few weeks and have a few questions: 1. Do you intend Briefer to be a jupyter replacement or a metabase replacement? 2. Do you have any plans to open source briefer?

I think there are some they're good enough at today. Auto generating meeting notes + AI context, auto responding / following up to emails, filling out forms (we do that pretty well at Skyvern with high accuracy)

I don't think ai agents are good enough to replace every job today, but they're starting to nip at the more junior / menial knowledge jobs I've seen a lot of success come from AI sales agents, just doing basic SDR style

We're definitely planning this. Skyvern currently intercepts all network calls that gets made -- we save them all as a HAR file for debugging purposes... but never looks at them A lot lot lot of scraping use-cases become simpler if you

We've discussed generating automation code internally a bunch, and what we decided on is to do action generation and memorization, instead of code generation and memorization. They're not that far apart conceptually, but there is

Imagine that exact use-case -- pulling up relevant tax information and filling it Now imagine it from the accountant POV, where they have the same use-case for hundreds of clients This is where we've seen something like Skyvern really

This is a great point. This is something already on our roadmap. We call it "prompt caching", but I realize writing this that it's a terrible name. Will update! ( https://github.com/Skyvern-AI/Skyvern?tab=

Interesting. We've decoupled navigation and extraction for specifically this reason, but I suppose decoupling selector with input could let us use cheaper smaller LLMs to "select" and answer We've been approaching it a l

We're gonna build a self-serve UI soon! We just wanted to get it into people's hands ASAP :) Feel free to email me at suchintan@skyvern.com -- I can let you know when the self-serve UI is live

Actually this kind of stuff is super exciting -- we don't need to depend on companies exposing APIs for their website -- we can just use something like Skyvern instead!

Nice! Thanks for sharing this. We tried approaches like VimGPT before but found the rate of hallucinations to be a bit too high to be used in production. The sweet spot definitely seems to be to combine the magic of Dom parsing AND vision W

We're quite different than LaVague. LaVague passes in the entire HTML DOM to the LLM to help it generate XPaths and valid Selenium code. ( https://github.com/lavague-ai/LaVague/blob/main/src/lava

Thanks! We definitely experimented with V only (that's the dream), but there's too much context missing: 1. What's behind a select option? You don't know until you click it, which means you need another iteration. This s

I love all of these ideas!! 1. You can set a "max steps" limit when you run it locally https://github.com/Skyvern-AI/skyvern/blob/d0935755963b017ed... We also spit out the cost for each step within

Ah cool -- we weren't familiar with OpenAdapt. Will check it out. One big decision we made was to focus on browser automations (instead of computer automation like Adept or OpenAdapt). The reason for this was that we wanted to leverage
