Tap compiles browser flows to cut LLM costs, complementing Claude for Chrome

Tap is a new tool designed to complement Claude for Chrome by compiling browser automation flows into reusable plans. While Claude for Chrome excels at interactive tasks and one-off jobs that require real-time reasoning, Tap addresses the inefficiency of repeating these tasks. By compiling a successful browser session into a .tap.json plan, Tap allows these workflows to be replayed deterministically at no additional LLM token cost and can run locally on a schedule without requiring the user's machine to be awake.
