The Opera Neon alternative built for daily work
Run your actual week on it. Companions work multi-step jobs in your real logged-in accounts, routines run the recurring ones on schedule, and our test method is published so you can rerun it.
Strawberry is free to download on Mac and Windows and ready for the work you already have queued. Thirty vendor pages into one table. The pipeline report every Monday. The inbox triaged with replies drafted by eight.
Companions do that inside the accounts you are signed into, with native integrations for Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Notion, Zoom and Apollo, and every consequential step held at an approval card. Then the pass saves as a routine and runs itself.
Opera Neon is a ground-up agentic product from a thirty-year browser maker: Neon Do performs tasks across tabs, work is organized into task-scoped contexts, and separate modes handle chatting, doing and making, as of this writing. It shipped to first users in late 2025 as a subscription product.

Your accounts, with approvals
Companions work inside your real logged-in session, which is where the inbox, the CRM and the portals already are. Native integrations cover Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Notion, Zoom and Apollo, and anything without one is still reachable in the tab you are signed into.
Because the actions are real, sending, posting, paying and changing records each stop at a card that names the recipient, the amount or the field. Drafted outreach waits for you. The model is on our security page.
Can you run your week on it today?
That is what the published test is for. Real tasks spanning lead sourcing, multi-platform workflows and messy dynamic content, each with a written pass condition and a fixed key, rerun monthly from September. The spec is detailed enough to run against any browser, Neon included.
What it measures is unattended completion, because a run that needs a nudge every third step gives you back nothing.
What compounds over time?
Scheduled routines run the recurring jobs unprompted: the morning lead refresh, inbox triage, the weekly report. Skills save proven passes for one-line reuse. Companions carry your corrections between sessions, so the tenth run beats the first, and meeting prep and transcription cover the calls in between.
What teams schedule first is written up in sales prospecting and research.
A fair read on Neon
What you get here is the week itself: companions in your logged-in accounts, routines on a schedule, skills for one-line reuse, an approval card before anything consequential, and a test method detailed enough for you to rerun.
Neon, as of this writing, runs agentic execution across tabs, treats tasks as first-class workspaces, adds creation features that produce shareable artifacts and inherits the core Opera experience. Opera’s site is the source of truth for its current features and pricing.
