browser-use/web-ui

This project builds upon the foundation of the browser-use, which is designed to make websites accessible for AI agents.

We would like to officially thank WarmShao for his contribution to this project.

WebUI: is built on Gradio and supports most of browser-use functionalities. This UI is designed to be user-friendly and enables easy interaction with the browser agent.

Expanded LLM Support: We've integrated support for various Large Language Models (LLMs), including: Google, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, Ollama etc. And we plan to add support for even more models in the future.

Custom Browser Support: You can use your own browser with our tool, eliminating the need to re-login to sites or deal with other authentication challenges. This feature also supports high-definition screen recording.

Persistent Browser Sessions: You can choose to keep the browser window open between AI tasks, allowing you to see the complete history and state of AI interactions.

Read the quickstart guide or follow the steps below to get started.

git clone https://github.com/browser-use/web-ui.git
cd web-ui

We recommend using uv for managing the Python environment.

Using uv (recommended):

uv venv --python 3.11

Activate the virtual environment:

• Windows (Command Prompt):

.venv\Scripts\activate

• Windows (PowerShell):

.\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

• macOS/Linux:

source .venv/bin/activate

Install Python packages:

uv pip install -r requirements.txt

Install Browsers in playwright.

playwright install --with-deps

Or you can install specific browsers by running:

playwright install chromium --with-deps

1. Create a copy of the example environment file:

• Windows (Command Prompt):

copy .env.example .env

• macOS/Linux/Windows (PowerShell):

cp .env.example .env

1. Open .env in your preferred text editor and add your API keys and other settings

1. Run the WebUI:

   python webui.py --ip 127.0.0.1 --port 7788

2. Access the WebUI: Open your web browser and navigate to http://127.0.0.1:7788.
3. Using Your Own Browser(Optional):
   • Set BROWSER_PATH to the executable path of your browser and BROWSER_USER_DATA to the user data directory of your browser. Leave BROWSER_USER_DATA empty if you want to use local user data.
     • Windows

        BROWSER_PATH="C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
        BROWSER_USER_DATA="C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data"

       Note: Replace YourUsername with your actual Windows username for Windows systems.

     • Mac

        BROWSER_PATH="/Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome"
        BROWSER_USER_DATA="/Users/YourUsername/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome"

   • Close all Chrome windows
   • Open the WebUI in a non-Chrome browser, such as Firefox or Edge. This is important because the persistent browser context will use the Chrome data when running the agent.
   • Check the "Use Own Browser" option within the Browser Settings.

• Docker and Docker Compose installed
  • Docker Desktop (For Windows/macOS)
  • Docker Engine and Docker Compose (For Linux)

git clone https://github.com/browser-use/web-ui.git
cd web-ui

1. Create a copy of the example environment file:

• Windows (Command Prompt):

copy .env.example .env

• macOS/Linux/Windows (PowerShell):

cp .env.example .env

1. Open .env in your preferred text editor and add your API keys and other settings

docker compose up --build

For ARM64 systems (e.g., Apple Silicon Macs), please run follow command:

TARGETPLATFORM=linux/arm64 docker compose up --build

• Web-UI: Open http://localhost:7788 in your browser
• VNC Viewer (for watching browser interactions): Open http://localhost:6080/vnc.html
  • Default VNC password: "youvncpassword"
  • Can be changed by setting VNC_PASSWORD in your .env file
