Stagehand is the AI browser automation framework: an open-source SDK for developers and LLMs to reliably control web browsers using natural language and code.

Stagehand delivers reliable web automation for production-grade AI agents and developer workflows. Built as a powerful, open-source alternative to Playwright, it fuses the predictability of code with the adaptability of AI. The framework provides four core primitives: **Act** (execute actions via natural language), **Extract** (pull structured data using schemas), **Observe** (discover available on-page actions), and **Agent** (automate entire workflows autonomously). It is compatible with all Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge) and is designed for maintainable, flexible automation, solving common reliability issues in web scraping and testing.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [Verification with LLM powered Behavior Driven Development (BDD)](https://seattle.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_abgJncjsLmk)

At SageOx, we've built test tooling that has raised the conceptual level of E2E tests from traditional code to human natural language. We've married the old idea of BDD (Behavior Driven Development) with LLMs to reduce the cognitive debt of designing and reviewing acceptance criteria for agent generated code. In my demo, I will show you a test scenario can be defined using natural language in the Gherkin format, have a coding agent turn that into a test run plan that exercises our Web UI, CLI and integration in Claude Code. And, then show a trace of the test running against these multiple interfaces in a single pleasing test report.

### [Browse the web with natural language using stagehand](https://sf.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_i_8RkLA3YjQ)

Stagehand is a natural language interface to Playwright, which allows you to browse the web using both Playwright and natural language!
