Hi everyone! I’m beyond excited to finally get this into your hands. We’ve mostly stayed under the radar, but today we’re offering early access to the PH community with free Pro Plan access the first month.


🧩 Why we built it

As a technical team, we’re big fans of Cursor. But as we shared our excitement with our non technical friends, we realized that the AI revolution had not yet meaningfully touched their lives.


The browser is the non-techie equivalent to the code editor, so we decided to build the Cursor for the web. That’s how Strawberry was born.


🫠 The problem

When browsing the web, we flip through hundreds of tabs per day, spending hours on boring repetitive grunt work that could and should be automated.


The same goes for moving data from tab to tab, populating and enriching sheets and writing the same email over and over again with slight variations.


But each person has their own unique workflows that require context about them and what they're working on. This means that some tasks just can’t be replaced by some SaaS tool or Zapier automation.


✨ What we aim to accomplish

Strawberry is the browser that gets to know you over time, that can remove those boring tasks from your work day so that you can spend time on the things that matter.


We want to put the power of AI into the hands of the average person; those who worry about an AI revolution where they get left behind.


It’s a work in progress, and we need the help and feedback of the PH community to give us even more clarity on how to move forward.


🚀 How to get started

We are still in closed beta, but as a special offer to the PH community, we will let all of you skip the waitlist! Until midnight PST, you’ll be able to download Strawberry at strawberrybrowser.com/ph-early-access.


As a special bonus, those of you who create your account during this time will get free Pro Plan access until June 1st.


Thank you so much. And please share feedback, questions, and comments! Our team will be around all day, and is looking forward to hearing from you.

@sebastian_thunman definitely trying it right now!

BTW: I just had problems login with Google, but Github login was ok.

Sebastian Thunman

@joserobleda Awesome, thanks for trying it out! Let us know what you think! Could you share more details about the Google issues? Are you on Windows or Mac?

Jose Ig. Andrés

@sebastian_thunman I'm using Mac. The problem is with 2-step auth: passkey doesn't work, and mobile auth gives me a 403. Let me know if you need more details

Sebastian Thunman

@joserobleda thanks for the details! We have had some issues with passkeys lately, working on making it work asap. Were you able to try out the onboarding? Any thoughts? :D

@sebastian_thunman Really appreciate you jumping in here! Just wanted to say – Strawberry is genuinely impressive. The way it simplifies complex workflows and feels like a real assistant in the browser is next-level. Love how thoughtful the user experience is. Excited to see how it evolves from here — great work!
Sebastian Thunman

@divyansh_tiwari7 thank you! We put a lot of time and energy into it and tried to be thoughtful about everything. Still early of course and there's much more to do, but we're proud of what we already have. Excited about things to come! Let us know if you have any feedback :)

@sebastian_thunman Great, I'll try it today! By the way, what is the difference between Strawberry and Fellou?

Sebastian Thunman

@xfq haven't tried it! What do you like about it?

Fuqiao Xue (xfq)

@sebastian_thunman It upgrades the information display function of traditional browsers to autonomous action capabilities, is faster than Manus, and supports background parallel processing tasks.

Sebastian Thunman

@xfq in that case I'd say we're pretty similar! You should try out Strawberry yourself and let us know what we're good at and what we need to do better.

Moazam

@sebastian_thunman Am I too late to get the pro offer?

Sebastian Thunman

@moazam unfortunately yes, but you can still download it and try it out!

George

@sebastian_thunman could you give me a beta access, I have reposted your browser everywhere I could?

Desmond

The research automation across hundreds of sites sounds revolutionary! Does the AI automatically group or prioritize tabs based on usage patterns, or does it rely on user-defined rules?

Sebastian Thunman

@desmond_ren1 thanks! Research works out of the box without custom instructions, but you can also specify how you want it to research - what pages to prioritize, what strategy to follow etc.

Charles Maddock

@desmond_ren1 As with most features inside the browser, you can simply teach it how you prefer to do something through prompting.

You can even record your screen to show a research assistant how to extract the data! No need to write long prompts.
Here's a video where I showcase that :)

This looks wild. Feels like what Chrome should have become by now. I’ve been building with AI a lot lately (currently working on Buildform, an AI form builder), and the browser is still where most of my time gets wasted, so this hits home.


Curious, does Strawberry support extensions or have plans to open that up?


Trying it out now. Rooting for you guys.

Arian Hanifi

@stanlyya Thanks! Yea I've been waiting for something to come from Chrome but in the end we had to take things into our own hands and build it ourselves.

Not currently. But we are working towards supporting the same extensions as Chrome does. Possibly even looking into supporting the old versions before Google killed all the adblockers.

Cool will check your product out!

Sebastian Thunman

@stanlyya I'm so happy this resonates with you, I couldn't agree more! We're working on extension support and will likely have it in the coming months. Thanks for trying it out, please share any feedback you have!

This looks way too exciting. Browsers do need revamp + AI superpowers. ARC is doing well, I'd love to see this one take off..


Good luck with the launch @sebastian_thunman @charles_maddock @coffecup25 @benjamin_astrand

Charles Maddock

Thanks! We all love Arc and it's our main browser, but since they are stopping development on it we thought, maybe we should just build our own? 😂

Sebastian Thunman

@neelptl2602 thanks Neel! Would love to hear your feedback if you decide to try it out :)

@charles_maddock love it 🤌💪

This is called gold! keep it up guys!

Sebastian Thunman

@kshitij_mishra4 thanks! What are you most excited about?

I've been eagerly awaiting the public launch of Dia, but @Strawberry beat them to the punch!


After putting 🍓 through its paces, I'm sufficiently impressed. @sebastian_thunman & @charles_maddock have done a good job integrating conversational AI into a browser-like experience, making it possible to add tabs as context to your requests.


I also appreciate that they started by building Dendrite: "tools to build web AI agents that can authenticate, interact with and extract data from any website", suggesting that they've been on this journey for some time and decided to apply those learnings to a consumer product.


TBH, Strawberry reveals that there's still much plumbing to be done to make the web less hostile to [user] agents as it's becoming harder to tell the good bots from the bad ones.


Sebastian Thunman

@chrismessina thanks for the kind words, Chris. I really appreciate that you recognize our previous product and our love for agentic systems, we have believed in agents since the launch of GPT-3.5 and we are super proud to finally get this consumer product into the hands of people. It's a real honor that you agreed to be the Hunter of this launch 🍓🫡

Charles Maddock

@sebastian_thunman  @chrismessina Thanks so much for the kind words! We're already ahead of Dia, and we are just four cracked devs – imagine where we will be in 2-3 months!

Hugo Pochet

Looking great, will test it out now and let you know my thoughts! Thanks for this, and good luck with your launch!

Benjamin Åstrand

@hugo_pochet Thank YOU Hugo! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about Strawberry!

Sebastian Thunman

@hugo_pochet thanks Hugo, can't wait to hear your thoughts!

Islam Akramov

This is the kind of browser upgrade we’ve all been waiting for. Researching at scale, writing in your own voice, meeting notes, and task automation—all built-in? That’s serious AI integration. Super curious to see how this evolves in pre-beta. Big potential here!

Benjamin Åstrand

@islam_akramov Love the excitement! Yup, those are just some of the features that we already have and planning to build so much more - looking forward to hearing your thoughts once you get the chance to try it out!!

Islam Akramov

@benjamin_astrand @sebastian_thunman @coffecup25 , thanks a lot for quick response! Appreciate that! P.S. I am also starting my own AI product, would be glad if you could give me a feedback!

@benjamin_astrand  @sebastian_thunman  @coffecup25  @islam_akramov  maybe you would be intersted in collaboration on getnius.com (a tool that builds lists to map the market fast):? there is a build-in orchestration mode for choosing a model.

Sebastian Thunman

@islam_akramov thanks! Let us know what you think if you decide to try it out!

Arian Hanifi

@islam_akramov This is the way to become the 10x professional worker. An unfair advantage compared to people not using Strawberry in my slightly biased opinion.

Lakshya Singh

I love this! Congrats on the launch and thanks for providing free access to the PH community. Good luck!

Charles Maddock

@lakshya_singh ofc! product hunt users are the crème de la crème when it comes to beta testers! :) Thanks btw!

Sebastian Thunman

@lakshya_singh thank you! Let us know what you think if you decide to try it out!

Alex Hamben

Love this. Never doing grunt work again

Sebastian Thunman

@hambena thanks! What's your favorite feature?

Benjamin Åstrand

@hambena Thanks Alex! What is your least favorite daily task that you will hand over to Lora?
