# Actionist Browser Extension

> Control web automation directly from your browser. Execute workflows, monitor agents, and manage automation without leaving your browsing experience.

  **Coming Soon**: The Actionist Browser Extension is currently in development and will be available in Q1 2025. This powerful tool will bring the full automation capabilities of Actionist directly into your browser.
</Note>

## The Future of Browser Automation

The Actionist Browser Extension transforms your browser into a **command center for web automation**. Unlike the Action Model training extension that collects data, this extension **executes automations** directly within your browser environment.

## ❓ Frequently Asked Questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How is this different from the Action Model training extension?">

    No. The extension is lightweight and only active when you engage with it. All heavy processing happens in your desktop app or cloud.
  </Accordion>

  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Will it work with my company's internal tools?">
    Yes, as long as the desktop app can access them. The extension simply provides browser-based control.
