Overview
Skyvern is an open-source agent that uses a vision model to read web pages and act on them, so it can work on sites it has never seen. You describe a goal and a starting page; it navigates, fills in forms, extracts data and downloads files, and you can chain steps into workflows in a no-code builder. You can run it on your own computer with your own model key, or use the paid Skyvern Cloud. It suits operations teams and anyone who repeats the same steps on websites.
It works from what the page looks like rather than fixed page selectors, so a layout change is less likely to break the automation.

Good to know
You repeat the same steps on websites, such as downloading invoices or filling in a quote form. Skyvern takes a goal and a starting page, then navigates, fills in fields and returns extracted data or files you can check.
Limits
- Basic usage statistics are collected by default; turn this off with the SKYVERN_TELEMETRY setting. Browser actions can submit forms, so start on a public page before a signed-in site.
- Anti-bot features such as CAPTCHA handling and proxies are only in the paid cloud version, not in the open-source install.
