Stagehand is an open-source tool designed to bridge the gap between artificial intelligence (AI) agents and traditional automation frameworks like Selenium and Playwright, allowing AI models to execute specific web actions through natural language instructions. It simplifies the task of translating instructions into precise web actions by leveraging the Document Object Model (DOM) and Accessibility (a11y) Tree for more accurate and efficient performance. Through a system of evaluations focusing on actions like "click the button," "extract data," and previewing actions before execution, Stagehand provides a platform for testing various AI models' capabilities. Among the tested models, Gemini 2.0 Flash emerged as the most accurate and cost-effective, outperforming others such as GPT-4.5 and Claude 3.7 Sonnet in terms of precision and expense. By offering compatibility with Playwright, it allows developers the flexibility to code manually if desired while also taking advantage of AI's potential for web automation. Stagehand's performance evaluations highlighted the strengths of Gemini 2.0 Flash in speed, accuracy, and cost, making it a standout performer among available models. The tool encourages innovation and experimentation in AI-powered web automation, inviting developers to explore its capabilities further.
