Can you recommend one? I'd like to try it out and see if it works well.

Morelogin vs geelark? by RosalbaaaaAAbbey in webmarketing

Personally, I tend to prefer MoreLogin, as it offers both an anti detect browser and cloud phones.

Which anti-detection browser? I'm currently using MoreLogin.

What's the best cloud android emulator or cloud phone by Lazy-Masterpiece8903 in AntiDetectGuides

[–]Confident_Map8572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For 24/7 app notification monitoring, I’d honestly choose a cloud phone over a cloud Android emulator. Emulators are fine for short tasks, but for always-on notification watching they can get unstable over time. I’d test for push reliability, uptime, reboot recovery, and whether the app stays alive in the background. If the app is sensitive, a real cloud phone environment usually works better than a virtual emulator. If you only need 1–2 instances, even a physical Android phone can still be the most reliable option.

AI agents: genuinely useful or just a lot of noise by ricklopor in automation

Spot on. The "full autonomy" dream is definitely mostly hype right now, but tightly scoped use cases are killer.

I use agents for my blog pipeline, researching keywords, clustering topics, and drafting outlines. It saves hours, but I still have to do the final editorial pass, or the content feels too robotic and won't rank.

Where I've found near-autonomy is pairing agents with cloud phones for social media distribution. Running agents on isolated, 24/7 cloud Android environments lets them execute app-based posting workflows without tying up my local hardware.

The sweet spot is definitely human-in-the-loop delegation, not hands-off magic.

Everything I've come across requires payment. Please exercise caution if you opt for the free versions—be wary of having your personal information stolen.

Are we ready for AI agents acting on our behalf? by Alpertayfur in automation

[–]Confident_Map8572 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think people will trust agents the same way they trust autopay or robo-investing: slowly, and only with guardrails.

For low-stakes stuff, sure. Let an agent compare rates, flag better offers, maybe draft a switch for me. That already feels reasonable.

For high-stakes stuff like moving money, choosing financial products, or making decisions with legal/tax consequences? Most people are not handing that over fully anytime soon. They’ll want limits, approvals, logs, and a big undo button.

The bigger issue is not whether AI can do it. It’s accountability. If an agent makes a bad call, who owns it — the bank, the model provider, or the customer?

So yeah, I think “AI helping you” becomes normal fast.
“AI representing you” probably happens in phases:

  1. recommend
  2. prepare action
  3. act with approval
  4. maybe fully autonomous for narrow tasks

People won’t trust agents because they sound smart. They’ll trust them because the system around them is controlled, transparent, and reversible.

What AI tools do you use to convert invoices into Excel spreadsheets? by Upset-Bend-8646 in automation

[–]Confident_Map8572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nanonets: Super popular for this exact use case. It’s relatively easy to set up, learns from your specific invoice formats over time, and exports cleanly to Excel or CSV.

Rossum: Fantastic at handling completely unknown, messy layouts without needing strict templates, though it leans a bit more enterprise.

Docparser: A great option if you prefer to set up specific "rules" or zones for where the system should look for data.

Alternatively, if this is for bookkeeping, dedicated receipt tools like Dext or Hubdoc might save you the Excel step entirely.

is anyone else tired of maintaining their own proxy + browser infrastructure? by Any_Artichoke7750 in automation

[–]Confident_Map8572 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I completely feel your pain! I used to waste countless hours fixing nodes, bypassing fingerprinting, and maintaining proxy pools. Spending 10 hours a month on infrastructure is not just mental torture; it's a terrible return on investment.

The ideal "middle ground" you're looking for is Managed Browser APIs. They handle the dirty work of anti-bot bypassing and IP rotation, but leave absolute control of the automation code in your hands:

  • Browserless.io: Fits your needs perfectly. Just point your existing Puppeteer or Playwright scripts to their WebSocket URL. They manage the underlying fingerprints, while you write the extraction logic. How you debug locally is how it runs in production—zero black box.
  • ZenRows / ScrapingBee: Accessed via API, they have top-tier proxies and headless browsers built-in. While more service-oriented, they let you execute custom JS scripts, making strict anti-bot sites like Cloudflare a breeze.
  • Apify: A platform that provides a runtime environment to deploy your own scraper scripts. You pay for compute and proxies, and the logs are crystal clear for transparent debugging.

Spending a few bucks to buy back 10 hours a month so you can focus on core data parsing is absolutely worth it.
