Skyvern overview and key facts (October 2026)

Skyvern automates browser-based workflows with language models and computer vision, so teams can run form filling, data extraction and downloads on websites that change often. It is open source under AGPL-3.0 with a hosted cloud option.

Skyvern interprets web pages visually and executes tasks from natural-language prompts, which lets one workflow work across several websites without site-specific scripts. It supports 2FA by QR code, email and SMS and integrates password managers such as Bitwarden, 1Password and LastPass. Workflows can chain browser tasks, extraction, validation, loops, file parsing, email and HTTP requests. The project reports 64.4 percent accuracy on the WebBench benchmark, strongest on write tasks. Skyvern Cloud is operated by Ikonomos Inc., doing business as Skyvern, under Delaware law, and has a free plan plus paid plans from $29 a month. On GitHub the project had about 23,100 stars and commits on September 28, 2026.

• Fills in forms on changing websitesSkyvern recognizes form fields visually and fills them in, even after a layout change. Back-office teams can submit recurring data to supplier or authority portals without maintaining brittle scripts.
• Extracts structured data from web pagesTasks can return data in a defined JSON schema, for example prices, statuses or document numbers. Downstream systems receive clean records instead of screenshots.
• Downloads files behind loginsWith 2FA support and password manager integration, Skyvern can log in and download files such as invoices, then place them in block storage. Finance teams collect documents from many portals in one run.
• Chains steps into workflowsWorkflows combine browser tasks with validation, loops, file parsing, email and HTTP calls. Teams can automate a full process, such as fetching, checking and forwarding a document.

• Computer vision approach that does not depend on XPath selectors.
• Built-in 2FA handling and password manager integrations for Bitwarden, 1Password and LastPass.
• AGPL-3.0 core; the hosted cloud states SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA compliance.

Open-source project used internationally without a documented country focus.

The AGPL-3.0 license requires publishing changes if you offer a modified version as a network service, so involve legal before embedding it in products. The tool offers features for getting around CAPTCHAs and bot protection: every Skyvern Cloud plan comes with a CAPTCHA solver, anti-bot mechanisms and proxies. Using them can breach the terms of use of the automated websites and is legally risky in Germany, so have it reviewed legally before use. Store portal credentials in a password manager, not in prompts. Self-hosting means your team runs updates and pays model costs.
