How I Built an AI Password Automation Tool with browser-use

# How I Built an AI Password Automation Tool with browser-use

## The Problem

  • Breach notifications require changing 50+ passwords
  • Manual process takes 4-8 hours
  • Most people just... don't do it

## The Solution: AI Browser Automation

  • browser-use library (89.1% WebVoyager benchmark)
  • Vision + action: AI sees screen, clicks buttons, types text
  • Works on sites it's never seen before

## Architecture
[Code snippets showing browser-use integration]

  • Electron frontend
  • Python backend
  • Local execution for security

## Challenges Solved

  1. Anti-bot detection → Chrome profile integration
  2. 2FA handling → Pause for human, resume
  3. Password security → Zero-knowledge, memory-only

## Results

  • 89% automated success rate
  • 30 minutes vs 6 hours
  • Zero passwords transmitted to cloud

## Try It
Built this into The Password App for macOS.
Free tier: 5 passwords/month
