Use a side-panel browser to research and fill forms
Claude Cowork can open a built-in browser, move through a site, and complete form fields while you watch.
- What they did
- A user turned on Claude’s Cowork mode for a web-based task. When the job involved a site, the agent opened its own browser panel, visited the page, clicked through, and entered form data on screen. It can do this without the Chrome extension, and it stays separate from the user’s normal tabs and logins unless they choose to bring those in.
- How it went
- In the example, the agent began a pricing comparison by collecting prices from a chosen site. The rollout was described for paid desktop users, but no speed figures or error cases were provided.
- Tips
- Keep the browser isolated unless you intentionally import saved Chrome sign-ins. For anything that could change data or spend money, have the agent pause and show every field before it submits.
