Which one is for you
Pick Airtop if
- Fits if you need to automate a website or vendor portal that has no API
- Works for developers adding a cloud browser to agents they already run in n8n, Zapier or Make
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you're staying free: 1 deployed agent and 1,000 credits a month, with Mark on a 7-day trial
- Pricey if Mark is what you came for, as it's only included from the $189 Professional plan
- Watch out: Starter at $29 allows 3 sessions at once and 10 agents; a custom proxy and dedicated support start at $189
- Not for you if you might want your money back, as refunds need a request within 5 business days and no credits used
- Skip it if you want a phone or desktop app, since Airtop runs on the web only
Pick Amazon Nova Act if
- Fits if you already build on AWS and write Python
- Works for developers who want browser tasks that can hand off to a human
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want no-code, as it needs code and an AWS account
- Watch out: the documentation lists a single supported Region, US East (N. Virginia)
- Pricey if you run many agents: each parallel agent is billed on its own at $4.75 an hour
- Skip it if you want a free try, as none is listed
How we grade them
| 2.6GPAAirtopGood | 1.6GPAAmazon Nova ActWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CStarter is $29 a month for 30,000 credits, 10 deployed agents and a proxy, which is the dearer end of normal for agent tools here. Then it's a long step to Professional at $189, where Mark and a custom proxy live. Paying yearly takes 10% off. | C$4.75 per agent hour, pay as you go. It is a usage price with no plan to line up against the category's $24 middle, so cost follows how long workflows run. |
| Free plan and trial | CFree gets 1,000 credits a month, 3 sessions at once and 1 deployed agent, plus a one-time 10,000-credit bonus. That's enough to build one thing and watch it run, and then you're out. Nobody is living on one agent. | FNo free plan or trial is listed. Billing is by agent hour from the start. |
| Features | AThe cloud browsers are the bit rivals mostly don't have: agents sign in to sites and portals with saved logins and proxies, up to 100 at once. Around that, Agent Builder compiles your description into repeatable code, agents run on schedules and triggers, and they can call any REST or GraphQL endpoint. | CNatural language plus Python, browser automation, human-in-the-loop, tools and APIs, AWS deployment and monitoring. It covers browser work only. |
| Ease of use | CYou describe the workflow in plain English and Agent Builder builds and tests it, so there's no code. But there are logins to save, accounts to connect and credits to keep an eye on, and no rating on record. | DNo store rating on record. You need an AWS account and write code; no no-code builder was found on the pages read. |
| Platforms and integrations | BA web app with integrations for HubSpot, Google Ads, Google Workspace, Slack and Airtable, a REST API with Node and Python SDKs, and it can run as a step inside n8n, Zapier or Make. No phone or desktop app. | BAWS service with Bedrock AgentCore, CloudWatch and IAM listed, but one Region only. No desktop or phone app. |
| Best for | automating websites that have no API | browser agents on AWS, by the hour |

Key features
Airtop
- Agent Builder
- Describe a workflow in plain English and Agent Builder builds and tests it, then compiles it into reusable code so the same input gives the same output on each run.
- Schedules and triggers
- Deployed agents run on a schedule or are started by a webhook or an event in a connected tool, and they are designed to repair a broken run on their own.
- Cloud browsers
- Agents sign in to websites and portals in browsers hosted in the cloud, with saved login profiles, built-in proxies, CAPTCHA solving and up to 100 parallel sessions.
- Integrations and APIs
- Prebuilt integrations cover HubSpot, Google Ads, Google Workspace, Slack and Airtable, and agents can call any REST or GraphQL endpoint using keys held in a vault.
- Mark
- An agent for marketing and sales work that researches your company, plans a go-to-market approach and builds the agents, with contact data and email verification built in.
- Use from other platforms
- A web agent can run as a step in n8n, Zapier or Make, or be driven from Claude Code and Codex. Developers also get a REST API and Node and Python SDKs.
Amazon Nova Act
- Natural language plus Python
- Each act() call passes a plain-language task to the model inside a session, and the surrounding script is ordinary Python.
- Browser workflow automation
- Listed uses include data entry into web forms, extracting fields from sites and dashboards, and running QA test cases in the browser.
- Human-in-the-loop
- An agent can escalate to a human supervisor when appropriate, and the waiting time is not billed.
- Tools and APIs
- Agents can call APIs and remote MCP tools, or use other agent frameworks, alongside the browser.
- AWS deployment and monitoring
- Native integration with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore for deployment, CloudWatch for monitoring and IAM for permissions.

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
