Polar is yet another AI browser, but it goes beyond just automating the mundane web chores

Polar, founded by former Perplexity engineer Kevin Zhang, raised $5.7 million in seed funding led by Madrona.

The startup is building an AI browser for knowledge workers that uses browser agents to automate repetitive tasks across open tabs.

Polar supports saved prompts and recurring automations, and will use a freemium model with plans starting at $20 per month.

The move highlights a shift in AI browsers from consumer search assistants toward workplace productivity tools.
