Fastest Browser

Ego lite is a desktop browser designed specifically for use by AI agents to perform web automation tasks. It enables users to share their logged-in browser state with AI agents, such as Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Kiro, Hermes agent, and OpenClaw, allowing these agents to automate browser actions without interfering with the user's own browsing activities. The tool is built on Chromium and can import an entire Chrome setup in one click, supporting use as the default browser on Mac. Ego lite provides separate workspaces, called Spaces, so both the user and their AI agents can operate independently within the same browser environment.

A core feature of ego lite is its integration with ego-browser, a skill that allows external AI agents on the user's Mac to control the browser directly. Agents can execute a range of in-page actions—such as clicking, filling forms, navigating, capturing snapshots, and waiting—by sending JavaScript snippets through ego-browser. This approach allows for parallel multitasking, enabling agents to handle multiple browser automation tasks simultaneously in different Spaces. The platform's semantic snapshot feature, built into its custom Chromium engine, supports reliable interaction with complex web elements, including cross-origin iframes, shadow DOM, and third-party SDK widgets like Stripe, Salesforce, Intercom, and React portals. This capability addresses common issues where traditional web fetch or JavaScript shims fail, reducing wasted computation and token usage by AI agents.

Ego lite is positioned as an agent browser, distinct from browser automation frameworks that require additional setup and often struggle to transfer browser state or logins. It is available as a free download for Mac, with no subscription required, and users can join a waitlist for the Windows version. The tool is suitable for automating a variety of web-based tasks across domains such as social media, real estate, finance, shopping, SaaS back offices, and internal tools, especially in scenarios where logged-in access is necessary and public APIs are insufficient. All data is stored locally, and there is no login friction when transitioning from Chrome. Ego lite is intended for users who want to streamline and accelerate browser automation with the help of AI agents, while maintaining full access to their personal browser environment.
