Pipedock Deckhand
Browser with an AI agent that performs repetitive web tasks and file actions on request
About Pipedock Deckhand
Pipedock Deckhand is a Chromium-based browser that integrates an AI agent capable of handling routine online tasks such as signing in, filling forms, completing checkouts, and processing documents. The agent operates within open tabs, reading and interacting with web pages directly rather than through pasted content. It can manage files through a built-in Finder-style explorer, supporting operations like opening, moving, renaming, and creating files or folders with user-defined permissions. The browser supports document types including PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, HWP, and HWPX, allowing in-tab viewing and editing with real-time updates. Users can schedule tasks or trigger them via events, with the agent continuing to run even when the application is minimized. The agent can be instructed via keyboard or voice, and it pauses before executing actions that require confirmation. Extensions such as 1Password and Bitwarden are supported, and the agent can utilize them without exposing sensitive data. The browser also includes a Markdown editor with features like tables, images, and Mermaid diagrams, enabling users to generate, execute, and save scripts or documents with version control.
