A browser built around outcomes

Stop carrying web work between you and your AI.

You already have the right tabs, accounts, and context. Trace gives your agent a controlled place to work with them.

01

Say what done looks like

Give Trace an outcome in plain language. You do not have to turn the job into a chain of clicks.

02

Let it work in its own space

Trace opens a bounded agent workspace, uses the pages you allowed, and keeps progress visible.

03

Step in only when it matters

Take over for sign-in or CAPTCHA, approve consequential actions, and receive the result with evidence.

Start with real work

Use the words you would use with a teammate.

Trace turns the outcome into a plan, keeps browser access scoped, and shows you where the work stands.

Handle an online return

“Find the headphones in my recent orders and prepare a return. Stop before submitting.”

A completed return flow ready for your review.

Prepare work, then review it

“Draft the post in the editor. Ask me before it goes live.”

A prepared draft with the consequential step held for you.

Turn pages into useful data

“Collect the products, prices, and links into a spreadsheet.”

A structured export with source provenance.

Make repeat work reusable

“Teach this weekly check and verify the same result next time.”

A workflow you can replay or schedule.

Control is part of the product

Useful enough to act. Bounded enough to trust.

Trace separates the model that reasons from the browser that owns sessions, permissions, approvals, and evidence.

Your sign-ins stay in Trace Browser

Profiles, cookies, and browsing history remain inside the browser on your Mac.

Every agent gets a bounded workspace

You choose the pages, domains, profile, and level of access for the work.

Important actions pause for you

Publishing, sending, purchasing, and other consequential steps keep their approval boundary.

Completion needs evidence

Runs preserve progress, approvals, artifacts, and verification instead of quietly claiming success.

Questions

Before you download

Is Trace Browser available now?

Yes. The macOS release is available from this page, and installed builds update through the same verified release channel.

Is this a Chrome extension?

No. Trace Browser is a separate Chromium-based desktop app with its own profiles, agent spaces, approvals, and work history.

Does an agent see every tab and login?

No. Browser work is scoped to the session, pages, domains, and profile you choose. Credentials are not handed to the agent.

Can I use it without Codex or Claude?

Yes. Browse, Ask, Delegate, and Teach are built into Trace Browser. Connecting an external agent is optional.

What happens when a site needs me?

Trace keeps the current page and asks you to step in for sign-in, CAPTCHA, ambiguity, or an approval. The work can continue from the same place afterward.

Which computers are supported?

The current public release is for macOS 12 or later. Windows and Linux versions are not available yet.
