have you tried any other AI browser automation tools? we would be curious to hear about your use cases because the use cases we have been working on with our customers involve scenarios where traditional playwright automations are not viable, e.g. they operate on net new websites and net new tasks for each execution

I'm unwilling to send my data to a 3rd party that is so new on the scene
Consider me a late adopter because I care about the security of my data. (and no, whatever you say about security will not change my mind, track record and broader industry penetration may)
Make it self-hostable, the conversation can change
You describe problems I don't have. I'm happy with Playwright and other scraping tools. Certainly not frustrated enough to pay to send my data to a 3rd party
