can i use claude and strawberry together

Yes, and that is the common setup. Claude for the writing, a companion for the twelve tabs the answer has to be pushed into.

does strawberry replace claude in chrome

For work that spans many logged-in tabs, most people stop reaching for the extension. One-page questions work here too: attach the tab to a chat and ask, with Fast mode for the quick pass and Smart mode when the answer has to be right.

how do i know it did the work correctly

You read the queue. Changes are staged with the evidence attached, and the runs at /real-runs show what a finished one looks like, including what a companion flagged instead of guessing.

It is free to install and includes AI credits to start; paid plans begin at $20/month. Heavy days consume credits faster, which is worth knowing before you queue up 300 records.

Claude Strawberry

Switch today, and the tab work stops being yours

A Strawberry companion works in the tabs you are already signed into. The answer and the part where it gets typed into the ATS both happen here, with a card in front of anything that lands.

Give it yesterday’s three call notes. It stages the CRM updates with a reason on each field it touched, then drafts the follow-ups in your voice. Nothing sends and nothing saves until you click. That is the twenty minutes after the answer, handed off.

Strawberry is an agentic browser for macOS and Windows. Download it, open the tabs you already use, and a companion works them: 93 native integrations carrying 1,257 hand-written operations, 1,975 further apps as connected accounts, and the signed-in session for anything with neither. The head-to-head sits at Strawberry vs. Claude.

What you keep and what changes

Keep the assistant you like. The split is two lines long.

Keep: the long-form reasoning, the code review, the document that has to be right, Claude Cowork's scheduled tasks, the mobile app on the train.
Change: the part where you become the transport layer between an answer and eleven web apps.
Add: 93 native integrations with 1,257 operations behind them, plus 1,975 further apps connectable as accounts.
Add: an approval card in front of sending, deleting, paying and posting, tightenable to every action with Ask Always mode in Settings → AI permissions.

Does Claude not already do this in Chrome?

Not the crossing part.

As of this writing Claude in Chrome reads the page you are signed into and then clicks, types and fills forms, on all paid plans, with a per-site grant and a wide berth around banking, health records and credentials.

A companion starts from the other end. It opens forty tabs itself, works the ones with no API at all, and stages each write for a click.

What does the first week look like?

Predictable enough to write down.

Day 1: one repetitive task you dislike, usually inbox triage or a list build. Watch it work and correct it out loud.
Day 2: the same task again, with the corrections retained. This is where people stop watching the screen.
Day 3: connect the two or three accounts you live in, so the common work goes through an integration instead of the page.
Day 5: save the weekly thing as a routine, then read how to prompt an agentic browser, because the phrasing matters more than the model does.
Week 2: the assistant subscription is still open, and the recurring jobs run as routines.

Your logins stay on your machine

Consequential actions stop on a card that names what is about to happen, and you approve or reject it. Ask Always mode extends that pause to every step. The session a companion uses is the one already open on your machine, so nothing runs in a datacenter with your passwords in it. The reasoning is at /security, and the wider question is at is it safe to let AI use my browser.
