Forward Deployed: The State of Computer Use Agents

A fireside chat at Founders Cafe in SF on computer-use agents — AI that operates a screen and browser like a human instead of calling APIs — featuring builders from Browser Use, Anthropic, and Kernel.

Why it matters

Computer-use agents burn far more tokens than API-driven agents: every screenshot, click, and re-render becomes model input, so the cost/latency tradeoffs discussed here decide if this pattern scales.

The tokenmaxxing angle

Screen-based agent loops multiply spend: each step re-sends a screenshot plus reasoning tokens versus one structured API call. Browser Use, Anthropic's computer-use team, and Kernel are setting the price/latency bar here.
