Skyvern is an AI-powered browser automation platform that uses computer vision and large language models to automate workflows on any website without brittle CSS selectors or pre-built integrations. Backed by Y Combinator and serving more than 30,000 users by 2026, Skyvern takes a screenshot of the target page, asks a vision LLM what it is looking at, and clicks, types, or extracts exactly like a human would. This visual-reasoning approach lets the agent operate on sites it has never seen before, survive UI redesigns, and handle dynamic flows that traditional RPA tools and Playwright scripts cannot. Skyvern ships with native CAPTCHA solving, 2FA and TOTP authentication, geo-targeted proxy networks, and document processing that returns clean JSON or CSV. Workflows can be built four ways: natural-language chat, browser recording, a visual node builder, or by uploading standard operating procedures as PDFs, Word docs, or screenshots that the platform converts into executable automations. A standout 2026 feature is Route Memorization, which compiles successful AI-found paths into fast Playwright scripts and auto-heals them when the underlying site changes, cutting per-run cost while keeping the resilience of an LLM agent. The platform is open source on GitHub with more than 20,000 stars under AGPL-3.0, self-hostable via Docker, MCP-ready for Claude and other agents, and exposes Python and TypeScript SDKs plus a REST API. Enterprise customers in healthcare, insurance, fintech, banking, and HR tech use Skyvern for portal logins, invoice downloads, claims processing, and large-scale form filling under SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA compliance with a 99.9% uptime SLA.
