# What Is Unbrowse Unbrowse is a faster, cheaper, more reliable way for an AI agent to use a website. When an AI assistant books a flight, pulls a report, or posts an update, it usually controls a real browser: it opens the site, waits for the page, finds buttons, clicks, and re-reads the screen after every step. Every one of those steps can fail, and every one costs time and money. Unbrowse learns the request the browser was going to make underneath all that clicking, and makes that request directly the next time the same task comes up. The reason this is faster is that the slow part of web automation is not the network, it is the interface dance: rendering pages, locating elements, recovering from layout changes, and asking a language model what to click next. Skipping that dance when it is not needed turns a multi-second, failure-prone sequence into a single call. When the site truly needs a browser, for example to sign in or carry a session cookie, Unbrowse still uses one; it just stops paying that cost on every routine run. That is the whole idea: do the expensive discovery once, reuse the result, and keep a browser only where a browser is actually required. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.unbrowse.ai/start-here/what-is-unbrowse.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
