Browser Use Raises $17M to Power AI Agents with Readable Web Interfaces

Browser Use, a startup simplifying how AI agents interact with websites, has raised $17 million in seed funding, led by Felicis’ Astasia Myers, with participation from Paul Graham, A Capital, and Nexus Venture Partners. Founded by Magnus Müller and Gregor Žunič, the company transforms websites into structured, text-like formats that AI agents can process more reliably than vision-based systems.

Müller said their tool allows agents to repeatedly execute tasks at lower cost, overcoming frequent site changes that break automated workflows. Part of Y Combinator’s Winter 2025 batch, Browser Use has quickly gained traction, with over 20 startups already integrating it. Myers called AI agents “the next frontier” in digital task automation.
