A new tool called Energy takes over browser, inbox, and file work end to end. You just describe the outcome; it plans the steps and does the clicking.

There's a new entrant in the crowded field of AI work assistants, and it goes by the name Energy. The pitch is simple enough: instead of chatting back and forth in a thread, you hand Energy a single sentence describing what you want done, and it goes off and does it. Not just drafts a response or suggests a plan — it actually drives a real browser, logged into your accounts, and completes the steps itself.
Energy ships with a handful of named assistants built for specific jobs. Inbox Zero clears out your queue. Sales Master keeps deals moving. Research Scout digs up what actually matters instead of everything that's out there. Project Captain keeps projects on track, and Finance Keeper watches the numbers. Each one is meant to take a category of grind-work off your plate rather than just answering questions about it.
The mechanics are straightforward. You describe an outcome, connect the tools you already use — Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar, Slack, Outlook — and Energy gathers context from across them before acting. Once it's done, it hands back a finished result for you to review rather than a pile of half-steps you still have to assemble yourself. Because it operates a genuine browser session under your own logins, the company behind it claims Energy can do anything in a website that a person sitting at the keyboard could do.
Where it tries to separate itself from rivals like Cowork or ChatGPT Work is in flexibility and setup. Energy says it lets you run your work with any model, rather than locking you into one, and that spinning up an assistant takes a click instead of the manual fiddling with memory, skills, and automations that competing tools require. On the privacy side, the company says it doesn't train on your content and keeps an audit trail of every action Energy takes, so you can go back and check exactly what it did and why.
The stated audience is people whose work is scattered across too many tools already — founders, operators, small teams — the kind of people who'd rather spend their attention on actual decisions than on shuffling tabs between an inbox, a CRM, and a shared drive.
My take — AI-written commentary, not fact-checked reporting
Handing an AI agent the keys to a logged-in browser session is exactly the kind of convenience that sounds great until the audit trail is the only thing standing between you and a very awkward Monday morning. The pitch that setup takes one click instead of manual configuration is the real story here — most of these tools live or die on whether normal people will actually bother connecting five accounts and trusting the output without babysitting it.
