Skyvern, a Y Combinator S23 company, is developing an "AI with hands" platform that automates browser-based workflows by visually interpreting web pages rather than relying on fragile DOM selectors. Its core engine employs Vision-LLMs to identify on-screen elements and a Validator loop that confirms each action’s success before proceeding, preventing the infinite loops common in other agents. To improve unit economics, the team is creating a Compile-to-Code system that converts learned workflows into deterministic scripts, only invoking large language models when layouts change. This approach aims to replace costly human SOPs and brittle Selenium scripts for tasks such as downloading invoices from vendor portals or entering data into legacy CRMs. Skyvern is open-sourcing its technology and building in public to accelerate adoption and trust. Although the company has not disclosed revenue or user figures, it reports continued growth in the browser-automation market. The recent funding will support product enhancements and enterprise reliability initiatives.
