Automa

Active

Overview

Automa is a no-code RPA (Robotic Process Automation) tool and browser extension that automates repetitive browser and desktop tasks such as form filling, data scraping, screenshots, and app launching. It targets users in marketing, finance, customer service, HR, and personal productivity who seek to record actions, use AI-assisted workflow building, or drag-and-drop editors without coding. Key distinctions include action recording for PC/Android, AI chat for workflow generation, and broad app control via browser extensions.¹²⁴⁶

Reputation

Automa is viewed as an accessible no-code RPA tool for solopreneurs and non-technical users, praised for simplifying browser and desktop automation via recording and AI.¹⁴ The open-source GitHub repo and Chrome Store presence (1.30.01 version) indicate active maintenance.²⁶ Some confusion exists with automa.app (remote agent platform), but automa.site focuses on RPA; no major criticisms noted in results.⁹
