ego-lite

A free browser built for AI agents that can reuse your existing logins (so an agent doesn't need to log into every site itself) and run several separate browsing tasks at once without them interfering with each other.

Description

When an AI agent needs to browse the web on your behalf, a common headache is getting it logged into all the sites it needs — email, banking, work tools — separately from your own browser sessions. ego-lite lets an agent inherit your existing Chrome login data and browsing history, so it can act as if it were you, while also running multiple isolated browsing tasks in parallel "Spaces" so one task doesn't accidentally interfere with another.

ego-lite is a free, open-source (MIT license, ~2,700 GitHub stars) JavaScript-based browser for AI agents, offering parallel multitasking in isolated Spaces within a single browser instance, high-quality page snapshots optimized for AI vision models to understand, Chrome login data and browsing history inheritance, integration with Claude Code, Codex and Cursor, local data storage with no repeated login friction, and reusable "skills" that improve performance on repeated task types over time.

💬 Our review

The short version: if you want an AI agent to browse the web using your actual existing logins instead of starting fresh every time, ego-lite's login-inheritance approach solves a specific annoyance that most browser-automation tools don't address directly.

The most direct comparison on this catalog is Notte, another AI-agent browser tool inserted the same day — the two take genuinely different approaches: Notte is a cloud-hosted, scalable infrastructure play (thousands of concurrent sessions, anti-detection, CAPTCHA solving) aimed at production automation at scale, while ego-lite is a free, local-first tool focused on a single user's own browser identity and parallel task isolation. As a much smaller, newer project (2,700 stars vs Notte's ~2,000 built on a more infrastructure-heavy pitch — both are actually similar in size, so judge by fit, not popularity) that runs locally rather than in the cloud, ego-lite is better suited to a single person automating their own personal workflows than to a company running thousands of scraping jobs. Pick based on whether you need your own login state (ego-lite) or massive concurrent cloud scale (Notte).

Pros

Gratuit et open source

Hérite des identifiants de connexion Chrome existants — pas besoin de reconnecter l'agent partout

Multitâche parallèle en Spaces isolés

Intégration directe avec Claude Code, Codex, Cursor

👎

Cons

Local uniquement, pas d'infrastructure cloud scalable comme Notte

Projet plus jeune et communauté plus restreinte

Partager les identifiants de connexion avec un agent soulève des questions de sécurité à bien évaluer

Moins adapté à l'automatisation de masse qu'à un usage personnel
