Use browser sessions
Learn use browser sessions in Ampere with product-grounded steps, current limits, and where to go next.
Last verified 15 days ago
Ampere can open browser sessions in its session workspace when a task needs to view a web page, click through a public flow, gather page context, take screenshots, fill a form you asked it to handle, debug a web surface, or prepare a demo walkthrough.
Use browser sessions for web-based marketing work that benefits from seeing the page, not just reading a prompt.
When to use a browser session
Ask Ampere to use a browser when the task depends on a live page or a visual flow. Good examples include:
- Reviewing a public landing page before writing launch copy.
- Gathering visible context from a website, pricing page, help page, or public product flow.
- Checking how a page looks before creating a screen-demo concept.
- Taking screenshots or describing a visible sequence.
- Navigating a public page to find copy, structure, visual cues, or product positioning.
For simple questions that do not need a live page, write the prompt normally. Ampere can decide whether browser access is useful, and you can also ask for it directly.
Ask Ampere to open the page
Give Ampere the URL and the goal in plain language. Include any boundaries it should follow.
Examples:
- "Open our pricing page and summarize the top three messages a buyer would notice."
- "Use a browser to review this landing page and suggest improvements to the hero section."
- "Open this public product page, take note of the visual style, and draft a short screen-demo outline."
- "Navigate only the public homepage. Do not sign in or submit any forms."
If the page is private, sensitive, or requires a connected account, be explicit about what Ampere may and may not do. Do not ask Ampere to enter passwords, payment details, private customer data, or other sensitive information unless you are intentionally working inside a trusted account flow and understand the risk.
Watch the live preview
When Ampere opens a browser, Ampere shows a Live browser control in the session. Open it to follow along in the session workspace.
The browser panel can show:
- The current page location.
- The visible page preview.
- A browser tab label when one or more tabs are available.
- A Focus option when you want more room to inspect the browser.
If Ampere shows an Open preview action, select it to bring the browser into view. Give the page a moment to load before judging the result.
Review what Ampere does
Treat the browser preview as a way to stay in control. Watch the page Ampere opened, read the visible page title or URL, and compare Ampere's summary against what you can see.
Before you use the result, check:
- The page URL is the one you intended.
- Ampere did not navigate into a private area by mistake.
- Any screenshot, extraction, or summary matches the visible page.
- The page had enough loaded content for the task.
- Any output Ampere creates from the page still matches your brand and factual standards.
You remain responsible for reviewing outputs and actions before relying on them or publishing them.
Know the limits
Browser sessions are useful, but site behavior can vary. Some pages may block automation, load slowly, change after capture, require sign-in, or show different content based on region, cookies, or availability.
If the browser preview is not available yet, wait a moment and reopen Live browser. If the session seems stuck, use the visible session state and diagnostics before retrying the task.
Close or move on
When the browser work is done, ask Ampere to continue with the next step, revise the output, save a file, or close the browser session. If the browser work produced files, open Workspace or Outputs to review and download them.
Where to go next
For the full Workspace layout, read Tour an Ampere session. To review files created from browser work, read Review and edit outputs. If a browser-backed session does not finish cleanly, read Failed or stuck Ampere session.
