Bnod — Browser Workflow Automation Chrome extension security report

AI agent + recorder + scheduler for your browser, all in one Chrome extension. Record what you do once. Let your browser run it forever — on schedule, on demand, or as a tool an AI agent calls when you ask. Bnod turns repetitive browser work into reusable workflows, all without leaving Chrome. 🎬 Record any task in one click Click "Record this tab" and Bnod captures every click, keystroke, and dropdown — even inside iframes — as a clean editable workflow. Stop recording — the steps are already in the editor, ready to replay. 🤖 Build with AI — just describe what you want Type "every morning at 9, check prices on my saved products and notify me of any drops" and Bnod drafts the workflow. The AI proposes a plan, asks clarifying questions, and assembles the steps. You approve the plan before tokens get spent. ⏰ Run on schedule, on demand, or as an AI tool Cron schedules, manual triggers, or expose any workflow as a tool an AI agent calls mid-conversation. Logs and per-step output are stored locally so you can see what ran. 🌐 Works on any website The recorder produces stable selectors that survive minor page changes. The replay engine handles forms, multi-step flows, and login-protected sites using your existing browser session. 📊 Web scraping and data extraction Pull data from any page: scrape repeating lists into structured arrays, extract HTML tables into CSV, capture screenshots, fire HTTP requests with auth/cookies/proxy. Export to CSV, JSON, or push to any endpoint via webhook. 🧠 Bring your own AI key (BYOK) Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, OpenRouter (one key, 300+ models), or sign in with your existing ChatGPT Plus subscription via OpenAI's official OAuth — no extra billing. AI calls go directly from your browser to the provider; we never see your prompts. 🛠️ 14 ready-to-use templates Hacker News headlines export, Google search results to CSV, hourly RSS check with notifications, daily HTTP uptime ping, "summarize this page with AI", multi-tab link snapshots, screenshot every URL in a list, and more. Install with one click, customize in the editor. 🔄 Sub-workflows and AI tools Call one workflow from another with typed inputs and a return value. Expose any sub-workflow with an AI description — the AI agent decides when to call it. 📦 Export and import Workflows export as portable JSON files. Tools and required environment keys travel with the workflow — the import flow prompts for missing values. 🔐 Privacy by design Your workflows, recordings, environment variables, uploaded files, and AI prompts stay in your browser. They never leave your computer unless you explicitly export them. Optional Google Sign-In and anonymous product analytics (no PII, no workflow content) are the only data the server sees. 🚀 How to start 1️⃣ Click "Add to Chrome" and pin the Bnod icon to your toolbar. 2️⃣ Open the side panel. Try a template, click "Record this tab" on any page, or hit "Build with AI" and describe what you want. 3️⃣ Run on demand, set a schedule, or expose your workflow as an AI agent tool. ⭐ Use cases - Web scraper for daily data extraction with CSV export and change notifications - No-code form filler that auto-completes across many similar pages - Take a screenshot of every item on a list - Trigger a webhook on a schedule with data scraped from a page - AI agents that read pages and call your custom HTTP tools - Login-required scraping with cookies and session handling - Reproduce a manual test across browser sessions 🆚 How Bnod is different - Unlike chat-only extensions — Bnod has a real visual editor. Build multi-step workflows with branching, loops, schedules, not just chat with a page. - Unlike scheduled scrapers — Bnod can do anything when a change is detected: POST to Slack, screenshot, AI-summarize, chain into another workflow. - Unlike server workflow tools — Bnod runs in your browser. No server to set up. No monthly subscription. Browser sessions and logins just work because it's your real Chrome. ❓ FAQ Does Bnod send my data anywhere? Workflow contents, recorded selectors, page data, uploaded files, and AI prompts stay in your browser. Account email (if you sign in with Google) and anonymous product events are the only data the server sees. Do I need an AI provider to use it? No. The recorder, editor, scheduler, and runner all work without an AI key. The AI Builder and AI Agent features require a configured provider. Can I bring my own ChatGPT Plus subscription? Yes. Settings → AI Providers → Add provider → "ChatGPT Plus". Sign in via OpenAI's official OAuth. Uses the Codex Responses API — no extra billing. How does the schedule keep working when Chrome is closed? It doesn't. Chrome must be running. The minimum interval is one minute. Will recorded selectors break when the site changes? Sometimes. Bnod caches several selectors per element and replays the most stable one. When a page redesigns, edit the selector in the step inspector. Can workflows interact with sites that require login? Yes — uses your regular browser session. Cookies and authentication work because it's the same Chrome you already use. Does it work in incognito? Yes, after you allow the extension in incognito at chrome://extensions. What languages are supported? English 9 more at launch. Settings → Workspace → Language lets you override the browser locale per install. Privacy Policy: https://bnod.app/privacy Terms of Use: https://bnod.app/terms Support: bnodapp@gmail.com
