Repetitive tasks are the silent killers of productivity. Copying and pasting information from one tab to another, collecting leads from websites, updating spreadsheets, sending follow-up emails all of it adds up. If you’re like most professionals, these small tasks can drain hours from your week.
That’s exactly the type of work Bardeen was built to eliminate.
In 2025, smart professionals are turning to tools like Bardeen to take back control of their time. It’s not just another automation platform it’s a browser-based powerhouse designed to handle the everyday digital busywork that slows you down.
What is Bardeen?
Bardeen is an AI-powered automation tool that runs directly in your browser. Think of it as your personal digital assistant that lives in Chrome (or any Chromium-based browser) and automates the repetitive tasks you do across tabs, websites, and tools.
Instead of jumping between tools like Zapier or Make to build complex automation flows, Bardeen works where you already work: your browser.
Whether you’re collecting contact info from LinkedIn, saving leads to your CRM, or updating spreadsheets with web data, Bardeen automates it with a single click or command.
Key features that make Bardeen unique
1. Browser-based automation
Unlike traditional automation platforms that operate in the background or through APIs, Bardeen works directly in your browser. It interacts with web pages just like a human would clicking, scrolling, copying, and inputting data.
This means you can automate almost any task on any site, even if the site doesn’t offer an integration.
2. Pre-built and customizable playbooks
Bardeen uses “playbooks” pre-made automation sequences you can use out of the box or customize. You don’t need to know how to code. Just choose a playbook, tweak a few options, and you’re automating in minutes.
Popular examples include:
-
Save LinkedIn profile data to Google Sheets
-
Scrape product details from e-commerce sites
-
Auto-send follow-up emails after meetings
3. Smart data scraping and input
Need to extract info from dozens of web pages? Bardeen can scrape structured data, detect patterns, and organize it for you. No need for manual copy-paste.
On the flip side, it can also input information automatically great for filling out forms or sending the same message across platforms.
4. AI-powered suggestions
Bardeen’s built-in AI helps suggest relevant automations based on your activity. If you’re frequently working on LinkedIn, Bardeen might recommend automations for lead collection or networking follow-ups.
It learns from your workflows to make smarter suggestions over time.
