Opera Browser

Recent information indicates that Opera is introducing 'Browser Operator,' an extension of the browser itself—designed to empower users by automating repetitive tasks like purchasing products, completing online forms, and gathering web content. It's a different cry from server-based AI integrations which require sensitive data to be sent to third-party servers. Browser Operator processes tasks locally within the Opera browser.

Instead of manually scrolling through product pages or filling out payment forms, you could delegate the entire process to Browser Operator—shifting focus to activities that matter more to you, such as spending time with loved ones.

Smooth Operations

The AI assistant harnesses natural language processing driven by Opera’s AI Composer Engine. Browser Operator interprets written instructions from users and executes corresponding tasks within the browser. All operations occur locally on a user’s device, leveraging the browser’s own infrastructure to safely and swiftly complete commands.  

If there's a sensitive step in the process, such as entering payment details or approving an order, Browser Operator pauses and requests the user’s input. You also have the freedom to intervene and take control of the process at any time.  Every step taken by Browser Operator is transparent and fully reviewable, providing users a clear understanding of how tasks are being executed. 

Powerful Advantages

Unlike competitors that depend on screenshots or video recordings to understand webpage content, Opera uses the Document Object Model (DOM) Tree and browser layout data—a textual representation of the webpage. It is a localized, privacy-first architecture. 

Furthermore, Browser Operator boasts advantages like faster task completion, enhanced privacy, and easier interaction with page elements. These are significant steps to actively enhance the productivity of users.
