Let Cole do it on the website for you

Cole has its own web browser, a separate one for each person, and uses it for sites with no app or API: filling in forms, booking slots, renewing a permit, getting through a checkout. Tell Cole the site and what you want done. It works through the pages, tells you what happened and sends a screenshot afterwards. Logins stay in its browser, so next time it starts signed in.

Several ways, and none of them need you to type a password into the chat. Save the login in your Vault, where it is encrypted and used only on the site it belongs to, with an optional approval every time; share a 1Password vault; or drop a password into a one-time page that expires after 15 minutes. For a step Cole cannot do, such as a captcha or a code, "Sign in for Cole" shows Cole's browser live on your phone so you can finish it yourself.

No. Google blocks sign-in inside Cole's browser, so Google, Facebook and Apple sign-in are not supported there. Use the site's own email and password login, or a code sent to your phone. Cole also cannot take over a session you are signed into in your own browser.

No. Before anything that spends money, sends a message, changes an account or accepts terms, Cole stops and sends you a short code. Reply "approve" with that code and it continues; each code works once and expires after ten minutes. As a backstop, Cole's browser also blocks buttons that look like buying, paying, sending or deleting until it has your approval.

A paid plan, and a private chat with Cole. The browser does not run in group chats or on the Free plan. Long tasks can run in the background, and Cole messages you when they finish.

Something you do on the same site every month: "log in to the electricity company's site and send me this month's bill", or "book the 7pm slot at the gym for Thursday." Cole tells you if it needs a login or a code, and asks before any payment.

Yes. The "Sign in for Cole" link shows Cole's browser live on your phone. It lasts 15 minutes and stays open longer while you are using it, up to 45 minutes. Otherwise, Cole sends a screenshot when it has done the step.

For each login in your Vault you can choose to approve every use. Then Cole asks before it signs in to that site, not only before it pays or changes something.

Each browser action, such as opening a page, a screenshot, a login or a payment, uses credits from your plan. The Free plan is chat only, with 150 one-time credits, and does not include Cole's browser or phone calls. Paid plans start at $19 a month with 2,000 credits.
