Skyvern review

Skyvern is aimed less at developers who want a raw browser and more at teams that log in to dozens of portals to download invoices, copy data and fill forms. You can describe a task in Copilot Chat, upload an SOP, demonstrate the task once or use a visual builder, and Skyvern produces a workflow. It handles CAPTCHAs natively, logs in through 2FA and TOTP, targets proxies by country, state or zip code, and explains each action it takes. Developers get Python and TypeScript SDKs, MCP support, webhooks and Docker images for self-hosting the open-source project. Every self-serve plan starts with a 14-day trial of 30,000 credits. Hobby then costs $29 a month for about 1,200 actions and 10 concurrent runs, and Pro is $149 a month for about 6,200 actions, residential proxies and team workspaces. Per action it costs more than the infrastructure vendors, which is why value scores lower, but it saves building the agent yourself.
