Axiom
Axiom is a browser automation and web scraping tool that lets users build bots with no-code steps, Node.js APIs, or plain-English descriptions to Claude.
About
Axiom (axiom.ai) is a browser automation and web scraping tool that automates repetitive work performed in a web browser, such as extracting data from websites, filling out forms, monitoring pages for changes, and compiling reports. Instead of writing scripts from scratch or clicking through the same pages every day, users build bots once and let them run on a schedule. The company is backed by Y Combinator.
Axiom supports three ways to build an automation. The no-code route uses a Chrome extension with a visual builder, where users assemble steps by hand or describe the task in plain English and let AI assemble it. The code route offers three developer APIs: a Chrome API that exposes a cloud browser over the Chrome DevTools Protocol for Puppeteer or Playwright, a Step API of high-level Node actions, and an Orchestration REST API for triggering saved bots. The third route uses a Claude Code skill and an MCP server so Claude can read a site and build or run the automation. Bots run either on Axiom's cloud infrastructure or locally in a desktop app.
Key Features
Pricing & Fees
- Pricing: Paid plans start at $15 per month (Starter, 5 hours of monthly runtime) and $50 per month (Pro, 30 hours of monthly runtime); higher tiers are listed on the pricing page.
- Free trial: New accounts receive 2 free hours of runtime on desktop or cloud, with no credit card required.
- Run limits: Starter allows 1 cloud bot at a time with a 1-hour per-run limit; Pro also allows 1 cloud bot but extends single runs to 2 hours. Desktop runs have no concurrency or time limits.
- Login handling: Site logins can be stored in axiom.ai or 1Password so bots can sign in and pass 2FA/TOTP automatically.
Who It's For
Axiom suits both non-technical users and developers. Marketers and sales teams can scrape job listings, monitor stock changes, enrich leads, or pull daily analytics into a spreadsheet. Operations staff can loop through CSV rows and submit them into signup forms. Developers already using Puppeteer or Playwright can point their existing code at Axiom's cloud browsers, or trigger prebuilt bots over REST. Teams working with Claude, Cursor, or other MCP clients can have an agent build and run automations for them.
