# Flowstem

Flowstem is a local-first browser automation builder for Chrome. You assemble a workflow from visual commands, run it against browser tabs, and keep the workflow library in your Chrome profile.

## What you can automate

Flowstem can navigate pages, click and type, extract page data, loop through records, apply conditions, call web APIs, run JavaScript, use AI providers, and send data to Google Sheets. Desktop users can also schedule individual workflows or arrange multiple workflows in a queue that runs them in order.

## Local-first by default

Workflows and captured values are stored locally in the browser. Flowstem uses its account service to confirm your plan, authorize runs, and manage the one signed-in device. Cloud execution is not available at initial launch.

Start with [Install Flowstem](/install-flowstem.md), then follow [Build your first workflow](/first-workflow.md).

When you are ready to automate unattended runs, see [Schedule a workflow](/schedule-a-workflow.md) and [Build and schedule a queue](/queues.md).
