Introduction to Vern
Understand the core concepts of the Vern platform.
Welcome to Vern! Vern helps you create browser agents that can automate tasks on websites. To get started, it’s helpful to understand two key concepts:
Tasks
Define specific actions or workflows Vern can perform within a browser. Set up tasks via the Vern UI.
Runs
Execute a specific Task. Trigger runs via the API or SDK using a Task ID.
How it Fits Together
- You define Tasks that Vern can perform (e.g., “Search for Properties”, “Fill Out Forms”, “Extract Data”) in the Vern Dashboard.
- You trigger a Run via the API or SDK using the Task ID for the action you want to perform, along with any required inputs.
- Vern executes the task in a browser and returns the results to you.
