Asteroid is a Y Combinator-backed platform that lets operations teams build AI browser agents to automate repetitive web-based tasks. Using its Astro agent builder, anyone can create self-healing browser agents from screen recordings, SOPs, or written instructions without coding. The platform handles authentication, executes workflows in secure headless browsers, and includes human-in-the-loop checkpoints for mission-critical operations. HIPAA and SOC 2 Type II certified, Asteroid is used by 25+ companies across healthcare, insurance, and finance.

• Astro Agent Builder: Build AI browser agents from natural language, SOPs, or PDFs. Astro converts workflows into structured, executable agent graphs and lets you refine them through chat or a visual editor.
• Visual Workflow Editor: Design and adjust agent logic using a graph-based interface, making it easier to understand multi-step browser automation flows.
• Iterative Agent Debugging: Inspect executions, identify failures, and improve agents through conversational debugging with Astro.
• Live Execution Supervision: Monitor agents while they run, with real-time visibility into each step, allowing you to intervene when needed.
• Enterprise Browser Automation: Run agents across complex web portals to handle tasks like data entry, quoting, and form submissions in systems without APIs.
• No-Code Workflow Creation and Updates: Create and modify agents using natural language or simple edits without writing code.
• Agent Profiles and Credential Management: Manage persistent browser sessions, authentication, cookies, and proxy configurations for reliable automation across systems.
• API and SDK Access: Deploy and manage agents programmatically using APIs, TypeScript SDKs, and integrations for production workflows.
• Web + Computer Interaction Toolkit: Agents can click, type, extract data, evaluate pages, and use visual recognition when DOM access is limited.

• No Technical Experience Required: Build agents using natural language, SOPs, PDFs, or chat-based instructions without writing code.
• Strong Compliance Posture: HIPAA and SOC 2 Type II certified with third-party penetration testing, making it suitable for regulated industries like healthcare and insurance.
• Transparent Agent Design: Visual workflow graphs, editable prompts, and full execution visibility for debugging and control.
• Fast Iteration and Debugging: Quickly update and improve agents through conversational editing and workflow refinement.
• Reliable Enterprise Automation: Built for production-scale browser workflows across healthcare, insurance, and legacy systems.
• Transparent Agent Design: Every part of the agent, including graphs, prompts, and model settings, is fully visible and editable for precise adjustments.

• Browser Agent Technology Is Still Maturing: eliability can vary depending on website structure, UI complexity, and real-world browser conditions.
• Retraining Required for UI Changes: While retraining is fast, agents don't fully self-adapt when website interfaces change. Manual intervention is still needed.
• Operational and Security Complexity: Browser-based automation involves handling authenticated sessions and sensitive data, requiring strong governance and oversight.
• Best Suited for Structured Workflows: The platform is optimized for repeatable, high-volume tasks rather than highly unpredictable or one-off interactions.

• Healthcare Data Entry & Prior Authorization: Automate repetitive data entry into EHR systems and patient portals. Browser agents navigate payer portals to submit prior authorization requests, upload clinical documentation, and track approval status, freeing up staff to focus on patient care.
• Insurance Carrier Quoting: Run structured workflows across multiple carrier portals to generate quotes, renew policies, and streamline insurance operations without manual portal navigation.
• Vendor Onboarding & Compliance Checks: Automate repetitive verification tasks, including form submissions, document uploads, and status checks across external portals and internal systems.
• Legacy System Integration: Connect modern applications to legacy portals that lack APIs. Asteroid agents handle the browser-based "last mile" between systems, entering structured data into older platforms like CTMS or property management software.
• Financial Services Reporting: Agents extract data from supplier portals, banking platforms, and internal tools, then output results to Google Sheets or other reporting systems for downstream analysis.
• AI Agent Startups Building on Legacy Portals: Startups building AI products can use Asteroid as infrastructure to reliably automate browser interactions with third-party portals their customers depend on.
