Portal17 Studio

Portal17 Studio is a visual browser automation tool designed for Windows users seeking to automate repetitive web and desktop tasks without coding. It provides a drag-and-drop interface where users can build automation flows by assembling nodes on a canvas, or alternatively, record actions by simply clicking through a task. The software supports running automations once, on a schedule, or continuously in a headless mode, allowing for flexible task execution.

Among its features, Portal17 Studio offers a visual flow builder that resembles a flowchart, making automation logic easy to follow and modify. Users can employ branching and looping constructs, such as If/Else branches and repeat loops, to handle decision-making and iterate over lists. The tool includes a smart recorder that captures user actions and automatically generates the corresponding automation flow. For data handling, it provides the ability to pull information directly from databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, or Oracle using a built-in SQL node. Variables can be captured and reused within flows, and results can be exported to CSV format.

Portal17 Studio extends automation beyond the browser by enabling users to launch desktop programs, wait for specific windows, interact with screen positions, and send keystrokes. Organizational features such as grouping and sticky notes are available to help manage complex automation projects. The software operates entirely locally, ensuring that no data is sent to the cloud.

The platform is compatible with Windows 10 and 11 and supports nine languages. It features 28 different node types for building diverse automation flows. Portal17 Studio is available for download from the Microsoft Store. Its class as a no-code visual automation tool makes it suitable for individuals or professionals aiming to streamline browser and desktop workflows without programming expertise.
