- Description: A second, much lighter browser handles simple page reads and searches, and agents can record a session so you can watch exactly what happened.

Agents now pick the right browser for the job. A lighter one handles straightforward reads and searches, and the full browser is kept for pages that genuinely need it.

The difference shows up most on search. Queries that used to take several seconds now come back in well under one.

When a browser task matters, the agent can record the session, so you can watch it back rather than take its word.

## What you can do now

- Get search results and simple page reads in a fraction of the time they used to take.
- Watch a recording of a browser session from start to finish.
- Read a page as a clean outline instead of a wall of text.
- Look at what a page actually loaded when something behaved unexpectedly.
- Keep the full browser for sites that need a real one, automatically.

## Why it matters

Most browsing an agent does is simple: open a page, read it, move on. Running a full browser for that is slow, and the wait shows up in every task that touches the web.

Recording matters for a different reason. When an agent says it filled in a form or checked a listing, a replay is proof, and it is far faster than reconstructing what went wrong from a description.

## Example workflows

- **Research:** A scan across twenty sources finishes in the time one used to take.
- **Operations:** A weekly price check runs against a supplier site and records itself for the file.
- **Reviews:** A lead replays a booking flow an agent completed to confirm it did what it claimed.
- **Debugging:** A page that came back empty is inspected to see what it actually returned.

## What’s next

We'll keep moving more browsing onto the lighter path, so web work stays fast as it grows.
