First: what is Notte?

Simply put, Notte provides a platform to build and deploy web agents that don’t break. By turning complex and repetitive web tasks into reliable self-healing workflows, businesses can scale automation with confidence.

Notte exists because the web is still designed for humans, not agents. Pure web agents can navigate it, but while they excel on benchmarks, they’re unreliable and costly in production. Traditional scripts are faster and cheaper, but a single website tweak can break them entirely.

Notte’s answer is Hybrid Agent Workflows: freeze the routine into deterministic steps; reserve LLMs for when adaptive reasoning is required. If a page changes out of hours, your flow doesn’t wait on you to redeploy - the agent adapts at runtime and carries the task to completion, armed with the necessary Agent Tooling for secure logins, identity management, payment integration, and audit-ready replays.

In short: faster & cheaper than any other fully agentic/LLM based solution, more resilient than pure Playwright/Puppeteer, and reliable enough for everything from regulated portals to high-stakes checkouts at scale.

What makes this work

Notte exposes four primitives and the runtime around them:

  • Observe converts a URL into compact, semantic context: what’s on the page and which elements are interactible.
  • Step executes those actions as a chain. When an action is unambiguous, it runs deterministically. When a page deviates, an agent falls back to reasoning over the observed map and recovers until success.
  • Scrape extracts structured outputs that survive cosmetic DOM churn.
  • Agent orchestrates Observe, Step, and Scrape into a coherent workflow. It maintains session state and carries context across pages, ensuring tasks reach completion across multi-step workflows.

Around that core you get production tooling: hosted sessions with built-in stealth and autoscaling; vaults for credentials, MFA, SSO, and cookies; personas (emails and phone numbers) for account creation and verification flows; payments to execute card flows end-to-end; file upload/download, and session replays for audit.

What people build with Notte

1) Production-Ready AI Agents

Market and pricing monitors. Teams track competitive sites that change daily: promos, plan pages, fine print. A Notte agent spins up sessions across targets, applies filters, captures price tables, diffs changes, and posts a structured report. Unexpected banner of modal? An A/B variant landing mid-run? Deterministic steps keep moving; the agent only “thinks” when a control disappears or a layout shifts. No monitoring or script patching.

Onboarding helpers. Many customer portals have no API and tricky UX. With Vaults and Personas, a Notte flow completes login, passes MFA, verifies email/SMS, uploads documents, and returns a clean JSON outcome (plus a replay for compliance).

2) Hybrid automation for back-office ops

Tax and finance portals. Deterministic logins and form fills are fast. However credentials must be secured, and reliability demands adaptability. Coupled with a vault for security, a Notte agent only steps in when a field relocates or a PDF viewer changes. Monthly filings run without constant fixes or manual intervention.

Compliance sweeps. Scaled browser sessions fan out across regulator or licensure portals to scrape statuses and write expiring items into a queue. The variance lives in two or three steps; everything else is frozen.

3) Structured web data at scale

Catalogs and pricing. Observe exposes reliable action spaces for “Add to cart” or “Page next.” Scrape delivers structured records regardless of DOM changes.

Product catalogs. Agents traverse category pages, capture product details, normalise variants and pricing, and return clean records ready for analysis. With residential IP rotation and built-in stealth, the data flows at scale without scraping blocks.

Why Notte instead of “just Playwright” or “just an LLM”

  • Latency and cost. Deterministic first. Agentic only when necessary.
  • Reliability. Inference-time recovery when the web moves. No “fix and redeploy” loop for trivial changes.
  • Observability. Structured outputs plus replays. Easy to debug.
  • Scale. Hosted sessions with built-in stealth and autoscaling eliminate the burden of managing browser infrastructure.

Notte Execution Flow

  1. You state the goal (“log in and download last month’s invoices”).
  2. Observe returns a semantic map of the login page: what can be clicked, typed, or submitted.
  3. Step executes: enter email/password from Vaults, submit, navigate to billing, open the right row, download.
  4. If anything drifts (button renamed, table re-ordered) the agent reasons over observed context, selects the correct control, and moves on.
  5. Scrape outputs structured data; Replay gives the exact session for verification.

No need to deal with infra overhead - define the flow, lock down the predictable steps, and let the fallback handle unexpected changes.

Production features that matter

  • Vaults. Credentials, MFA tokens, SSO, and cookies stored with enterprise-grade security.
  • Personas. Disposable emails and phone numbers for signup and verification at volume.
  • Payments. Controlled card entry for checkout flows and agentic transactions.
  • Sessions. Hosted browsers with stealth modes and autoscaling, ready for demand-fluxes.
  • Replays. Visual summaries and session playback to diagnose or prove what happened.
  • CDP compatibility. If you already have hooks or devtools workflows, you can keep them.

Looking ahead

Hybrid wins. Frozen steps plus selective reasoning is the pattern that holds up under real-world complexity - government portals, enterprise logins, consumer checkout, the lot. The answer to reliable automation: the end-user sees faster outcomes, and your team sees fewer tickets and fewer redeploys.
