Product Overview
What is Polar?
Polar is an AI-first browser built for knowledge workers who want to automate internet-based tasks. Created by a team from MIT, YC, Perplexity, Modal, Jane Street, and Apple, Polar operates inside your existing browser sessions and accounts to execute multi-step workflows autonomously. Users describe tasks in natural language, and Polar handles everything from quick questions to hours-long research projects across multiple websites. The browser supports scheduled workflows, persistent context across runs, and transparent execution where users can monitor progress and take control at any time.
Key Features
Natural Language Automation
Describe tasks in plain English and Polar executes them across websites and tools you already use, from quick lookups to multi-hour workflows.
Autonomous Long-Running Tasks
Polar can work independently for hours across multiple sites, handling complex research, data gathering, and multi-step operations without constant supervision.
Scheduled Workflows
Save prompts as reusable workflows and run them on hourly, daily, weekly, or custom schedules with persistent context carried into every execution.
Works in Existing Accounts
Built on Chromium, Polar operates inside your logged-in sessions and existing tools, eliminating the need to re-authenticate or switch platforms.
Transparent Control
Watch Polar's actions in real-time, take over anytime, and benefit from guardrails that prevent high-risk autonomous actions while maintaining user control.
In-Tab Task Handoff
Hand off quick or long tasks from any browser tab while staying in your workflow, using the current page as context for immediate questions or task delegation.
