Welcome to BrowserOS! Let's get you set up.
<Steps>
<Step title="Import from Chrome">
Bring your bookmarks, history, and passwords from Chrome.
1. Go to `chrome://settings/importData`
2. Select **Google Chrome** and click **Import**
3. Choose **Always allow** when prompted
<Tip>
This imports everything in one click — bookmarks, passwords, history, and extensions.
</Tip>
</Step>
<Step title="Set up your AI">
BrowserOS includes a default AI model with limited daily usage. For the best experience, add your own.
**Quick option:** Get a free Gemini API key from [aistudio.google.com](https://aistudio.google.com) — 20 requests per minute at no cost.

Set up Gemini, Claude, OpenAI, or run models locally with Ollama
</Card>
</Step>
<Step title="Try it out">
Open any webpage and click the **Assistant** button in the toolbar.
- **Chat Mode:** Ask questions about the page
- **Agent Mode:** Describe a task and watch it execute
<Note>
For Agent Mode, use Claude Opus 4.5 or Sonnet 4.5. Local models work great for Chat but aren't powerful enough for agents yet.
