BrowserMonkey
Sniff once, shortcut forever. Browser automation without the screenshot tax.
Sniffer maps a website's real API calls once and writes them to a local file. Monkey reads that file and navigates blind — no screenshots, no coordinate guessing, no fog-of-war on every run. Built for the 90% of SaaS that won't give you an API.
- Sniffer intercepts fetch/XHR calls — documents every endpoint
- Monkey replays shortcuts without screenshots
- Works on walled-garden tools with no public API
- Shortcut files saved locally in your Coworker folder

The screenshot tax is real.
Native browser automation rediscovers the maze every session. Monkey reads the map.
Native automation vs BrowserMonkey
| What | Without Monkey | With Monkey |
|---|---|---|
| Screenshot loops | Every. Single. Step. | Zero |
| Token cost per run | High (vision calls) | Minimal (text-only) |
| Memory across sessions | None — starts over | Reads shortcut file |
| Setup required | None (just slow) | One Sniffer run per site |

Problem: Monthly accounting — 12 invoices from 6 tools with no public APIs. Finnish accounting software. 45 min/month, manually.
With Monkey: One Sniffer run across all invoice tools (~20 min, once). Every month after: Monkey fetches everything, uploads to accounting, done.
→ 45 min/month → 0 min/month. Payback on run one.
3 steps. 2 minutes.
