Bardeen

Bardeen is a browser automation and workflow tool that operates directly within Chrome, enabling users to automate repetitive browser-based tasks, data extraction, form filling, cross-site data transfer, and multi-step web workflows, without writing code. Its primary interface is a Chrome extension that gives the AI access to whatever is visible on the current webpage, enabling 'scrape this table and export to Google Sheets,' 'find all emails on this page and add to a CRM,' and 'pull this LinkedIn profile into my prospect database' as one-click operations. Bardeen's Playbooks are pre-built automation templates for common workflows: LinkedIn prospecting, Crunchbase data export, ATS-to-spreadsheet sync, and competitor research aggregation. The Trigger system enables automatic execution: when a new row appears in a spreadsheet, run this browser workflow; when an email arrives matching criteria, open and process the linked page.

Bardeen connects to 100+ apps including CRMs, spreadsheets, email tools, and project management platforms. The free plan provides limited automation runs per month. Premium plans start at $20/month for unlimited runs. Bardeen's position is the browser-native automation layer, tools that require interacting with web pages as a human would, which traditional API-based automation tools cannot do.
