RobotActions

What it does

RobotActions gives you — and your AI agents over MCP — full control of real iOS and Android devices from the browser. Your mouse and keyboard map to real touches (tap, hold, swipe, type), so it feels like the phone is in your hand, not a laggy screen-share. Plus live web inspection, full network capture with request/response mocking, GPS simulation, and an AI agent that explores your app, finds bugs, and generates test scripts. Try it with Google or GitHub sign-in and a live demo.

Cloud device farm for real Android & iOS testing. Selenium, Appium, Playwright, and MCP AI agent support. Access real devices on demand.

Every tap, swipe and keystroke streams live to your browser — equally responsive on real iOS and Android. It feels like a local simulator, but it's real hardware in your own dedicated cloud tenant. Run Selenium and Playwright on real browsers and Appium on real iOS & Android — all through standard W3C WebDriver endpoints. No emulators, no headless VMs. Need a specific device or browser? We provision it for your workspace. Selenium Grid and Playwright on real Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge. Drop-in RemoteWebDriver — swap your grid URL and go. Appium 2 with native iOS and Android drivers. Real phones and tablets, streamed live, W3C WebDriver compliant. WebDriverIO, Java, Python, JavaScript,…from robotactions.com

In the maker’s words, at launch

We build RobotActions, a cloud device farm for Android/iOS testing. We just shipped a Chat AI Agent that lives inside the live device session. What it does: - During a session, you can ask "What's the XPath for this button?" and get a ready-to-use locator from the current screen - Ask "Write an Appium test for…

  Aident AI Beta 2Mar 2026 · aident.ai · ▲398

  Hi HN — I’m Kimi, founder of Aident AI. A couple years ago, I cold-started a startup and tried to automate my outreach pipeline with a patchwork: RPA + Zapier + "just some ChatGPT". It worked… until it didn’t. Every time I tweaked the strategy, the automation snapped. The system wasn’t built for change — it was built for wiring. And that’s when it hit me: AI is finally smart enough to do real work, but we still don’t have a clean way to communicate the work to it: Drag-and-drop flows are too rigid; Scripts are too fragile; Prompts are too ephemeral. I kept thinking: why can’t automation be…

  I built an AI agent that can do mobile app QA after working at Google for years and waiting weeks for QA results. It runs on real devices and uses an ensemble of agents (including computer use) to test like a human. Happy to answer questions and hope it helps app devs ship faster without bugs!

  Clipto MCP▲655

  Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

  Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
