Technical Architecture

WebPilot is built using modern web technologies to enable efficient, real-time browser automation and user assistance.

How WebPilot Works

  1. 1. User Opens WebPilot – The user launches WebPilot as an iframe inside a webpage or as a standalone page.
  2. 2. Unique Browser Session is Created – The system creates a dedicated browser session on the server for the user.
  3. 3. WebRTC Shares the Server Browser View – A live video feed of the remote browser is streamed to the user.
  4. 4. WebSocket Synchronization – A bi-directional WebSocket connection keeps everything in sync, including:
    • Remote browser state (open tabs, active elements, page changes).
    • User interactions (mouse clicks, keyboard inputs) are mirrored in the remote browser.
  5. 5. AI Context Awareness & Assistance – The AI monitors the user’s activity and offers real-time help. Users can:
    • Chat with AI for navigation guidance.
    • Request automation for repetitive actions.
    • Ask AI to take them to a specific section of a website.
  6. 6. AI Takes Over on Request – When prompted, the AI navigates the website by clicking elements and guiding the user.
  7. 7. Session Ends When Not in Use – Once the user stops using WebPilot, the server terminates the browser session to free up resources.
