# Ui.Vision

> Open-source browser and desktop automation with computer vision

Ui.Vision is an open-source automation tool that runs as a browser extension for Chrome, Edge and Firefox, with a separate desktop app for automating native applications on Windows, macOS and Linux. Macros can be recorded, written with Selenium IDE-style commands or a JavaScript API, or drafted by a built-in AI assistant, and they can find things by screenshot, OCR and image recognition as well as by page selector. Macros run locally; the paid editions add support and update management.

## Key features

- **Record and replay browser macros:** Browser tasks are recorded and replayed with Selenium IDE-style commands: filling forms from CSV data, extracting tables and automating file downloads and uploads. Selenium IDE scripts import and export.
- **Computer vision and OCR:** Macros can locate buttons by image and read text on screen, including inside canvas elements, images and videos, which helps where a page selector cannot be built.
- **Desktop automation with XModules:** The free Desktop App, also called XModules, adds native mouse clicks, keyboard input and drag and drop for desktop applications, plus reading and writing macros and CSV files on disk.
- **AI macro assistant:** You describe a task and the assistant inspects the page, writes a macro, runs it and helps fix failures. It works without signup or an API key, or with your own AI provider or a local model.
- **MCP bridge:** An MCP bridge that runs on your computer lets an MCP-compatible AI assistant inspect the live page, create and edit macros, run them and read the logs.
- **Command line API:** Macros can be started and monitored from the command line, so they fit into tools such as Jenkins and scripts in Python, C# or PowerShell. The XRun command calls other programs.

## Good for

- Testers and developers familiar with Selenium IDE-style commands
- Automating sites or desktop apps where selectors fail but images and text can be seen
- Teams that need automation to run entirely on their own machines

## Worth knowing

- Desktop automation and local file access need the separate XModules desktop app; the extension alone automates only the browser.
- Browser Vision input requires Chrome or Edge, so it is not available in the Firefox extension.
- The PRO and Enterprise editions add support and update management, not extra automation features.
- The hosted AI assistant sends chat content, page data and screenshots to the provider for processing, and AI PRO has no uptime guarantee.

## Works with
