Strawberry 1.0 - AI Browser that saves your team >100h/week
by•
Strawberry is an AI browser that can do hours of work in minutes.
Strawberry's agents, which we call "Companions", can research hundreds of leads in parallel, transcribe your meetings, automate follow-ups, and handle all the repetitive admin your team keeps procrastinating.
Create or hire a pre-made companion, teach it your preferences and share it with your whole team. Hundreds of teams, including Lovable, Tandem Health and ElevenLabs, already use Strawberry.

Hi everyone! Charles here, and I'm really excited to share Strawberry 1.0 with you 🍓
A year ago we launched our beta here on Product Hunt. Back then, Strawberry was a simple browser with a built-in AI agent.
Today it's a fully fledged agent platform that hundreds of teams, including Lovable, Tandem Health and ElevenLabs, use to run agents around the clock, transcribe meetings and build a shared company context.
We call these agents "companions".
🫠 The problem
Developers already have great AI agents that can work for hours on end, like Claude Code and Codex. But those tools are built for people who work in files, not tabs. These apps are powerful, but usually too complex for the average non-technical team.
Newer assistants like Dots, Grok Bot and Instinct are much more delightful and intuitive, and they're great for consumers. But they're hard to rely on for real team work. You mostly work through one long chat and can't easily see what the agent is doing.
🌐 Why we built a browser
The browser strikes the perfect balance between intuitive and powerful.
Everyone knows how to use a browser, and it's where most of your team's work already happens. Your tools, your context and your logins are all there. The browser as the interface makes it much easier for e.g. sales, marketing and talent teams to get started with agents, while still being possible to build advanced systems that run on their own.
We're also big believers in the agentic web. Soon there will be trillions of AI agents communicating and trading with each other. With Strawberry, you are ready for that future, while your companions can still leverage today's internet.
🧩 What you get
• You can start with an official companion, like Sales Sally for sales or Talent Theo for recruiting, or create your own in a few minutes. Your companion interviews you and learns how you work.
• You can see and edit everything your companion knows and does: its skills, routines and memory.
• Big jobs run in parallel. Ask it to research 200 accounts and you get one finished sheet back.
• When a companion works well, share it, and your whole team can use it.
• Use any AI model you like. We're SOC 2 Type II compliant with EU data residency, and your companion always asks before it sends anything.

What's the first job you'd give your companion? Our whole team is in the comments all day, and we'll share the wackiest answers in our team chat 👀
@charles_maddock Can companions keep their knowledge up to date automatically when our team's tools and workflows change???
gave strawberry, dia and claude the same task: find stuff online for a hardware project im working on. strawberry did a way better job than both, and used less RAM too! INSANE how good this is 🐐
@leahlundqvist that's the benefit of being a browser!! it's so much more natural than having to jump to a second app to do all of the agentic work
companions running agents all day for sales and recruiting folks is a nice step past dev tools. when one finishes something overnight, where does it tell you?
@neerajnathany thanks! It shows up as a regular chat in your sidebar.
@sebastian_thunman ok that's simple, a normal chat in the sidebar. thanks Sebastian.
@neerajnathany it can answer you anywhere you want. Connect it with Slack, Gmail, Hubspot, or whatever tool you're using and it can notify you in there!
@coffecup25 good to know it can ping me in Slack or Gmail too. thanks Arian.
@neerajnathany Anywhere else you would want it to ping you? Always open to suggestion on how we can make the product better!
@neerajnathany @coffecup25 imsg would be cool guys - congrats btw this is awesome!
@lakshya_singh Thanks for trying us way back in the day!
Try it again, it's completely different today :)
Might still be able to get you some extra credits if you ask ;)
@lakshya_singh It means a lot that you've been with us for so long, it's been a crazy ride so far! Much more to come!
@lakshya_singh haha we've come a long way from then! Glad to have you on the journey from the start, still a long way to go!
Really want to give it a try
Getting people to switch browsers is a big bet though, curious how you get teams to make the jump.
@aurelia_zambon really good point, in most of our messaging we don't even mention the browser part: It's more like a agent builder platform.
Try it out and lmk what you think! :)
@aurelia_zambon That's the thing, it's hard to convince people to switch browsers if the promise isn't anything more than a more pleasant browser experience. You need to offer something 10x to have them switch which is what we're doing (my unbiased opinion)
@aurelia_zambon Let us know what you think! We don't expect people to blindly switch browsers, we ask people to try it as a standalone product and if they want, they can eventually switch.
I hope you think we're worthy after trying it out!
Good timing in the context of Arc's sunsetting!
Curious how you compare with other proactive agents like Dots, Grok Bot, Duet, et al?
@chrismessina Yes! We loved Arc and it is a large part of the reason we fell in love with the browser!
Dots, Grok Bot, etc are super nice but IMO it's hard to build more complex workflows in them, it's hard to see what their agent is doing underneath the hood!
With Strawberry, we see teams within sales and recruiting building up serious workflows that e.g source hundreds of leads and book meetings on autopilot!
That's since Strawberry is a browser, it can open hundreds of tabs to source, do research, and scrape data, all on your device!
Did you try it lately? :)
@charles_maddock just downloaded!
I work across sales, marketing and operations, so my day can get eaten up by research, inbox work and following up on things. My companion, Founding Fritz, helps me get basically all my work done lol.
The biggest difference for me is not having to explain the context of my work or start from scratch every time I want to hand off a task to an agent. Fritz remembers how I work, has the context from previous projects and can use the tools I already use. And the time I spend teaching him carries over to the next task - and even to my colleague when I share the companion!
it's amazing!
@laurits_wehding I'm always insanely impressed how many agents you manage to handle at one go.
This launch was pretty much completely orchestrated by you and a hundred agents working inside Strawberry.
How do you do it???
I'm Gen X and not a coder, but I've been found Stawberry has become essential since I began using it at the start of the year. It assists with work more intuitively and elegantly than any other comparable tools I trialed like the better-hyped agentic browsers. I used it to move photos from one platform into Apple Photos, retaining all folders, captions, tags, etc., successfully and painlessly. I used it to navigate complex government databases and efficiently uncover specific records. I used it to audit 3,900 booking links and content on a major website. The Strawberry team, even the cofounders, have been super responsive to customer feedback, making the interface user-friendly and giving me confidence they have the company culture and talents to keep iterating and make it worthwhile to bet on this horse.
@sean_o_neill6 Hi Sean, I really appreciate your words and your support. We care a lot about providing the best possible experience and innovating on the user interface to make agents more accessible. Much more to come around usability and delightfulness!
@sebastian_thunman Grateful for your team in helping users be even more ambitious in their work than they imagined they could be. Takes the friction out of agent-building for high-ROI uses.
The memory that strawberry has makes the product feel unreal, the concept of having a virtual colleague is such a booster when you wrap your head around it
@hampfh Yes, the memory feature is insanely good and critical to the Strawberry Companions feeling like real colleagues.
What surprised you the most about the memory system?
Been looking forward to this one!
Can't wait to start using strawberry 1.0 myself 🤝
@elliot_simons Nice, let me know how it goes!
@elliot_simons Let us know what you think!
