When we set out to build AI tools for healthcare, we were forced to integrate with tons of legacy software lacking available APIs. We tried Computer Use Agents (CUAs). Here is what we found:

- Overhyped - Too slow - Too expensive - Contemplate their existence when confronting date pickers

This is why we build Vectorly! A new way to access data hiding behind UI interactions and closed APIs. Our solution is simple:

Record your interaction with any website. Tell our AI agent what data/API you need. Reuse the automation as an API endpoint or MCP tool

Our approach has no secrets, we open source our reverse engineering method: https://github.com/VectorlyApp/web-hacker

Check out our demo: https://youtu.be/xX4ycRAU5dA

We made it very easy to reverse engineer web apps! Give it a go: https://console.vectorly.app

We are excited for you to try out Vectorly and look forward to your feedback :)
