‍Founded by Catherine Jue & Rafael Garcia

Raf and Catherine started Kernel from the shared belief that cloud infrastructure can be 100x better. They believe that well-designed, opinionated tooling unlocks superpowers, and they are passionate about building best-in-class infrastructure for the next generation of AI applications.

Before starting Kernel, Raf was the co-founder/CTO of Clever (YC S12), which exited for $500m in 2021. Catherine was the co-founder of Sway Finance (YC S16) and most recently led Cash App’s team of forward deployed engineers and Cash App’s docs platform.

🚀 What’s Kernel?

Kernel is the best place in the world to launch web agents and browser automations. They handle the hard parts of running browser infrastructure in the cloud so you don’t have to: spinning up browsers quickly, responsive read/write live view, logs, headless vs. headful mode, residential proxies, and more.

Their edge is an infrastructure platform that’s flexible, observable, and insanely fast from day one:

• Performance - web automations and Computer Use agents can launch and connect to Kernel browsers in 300 milliseconds
• Isolation x telemetry - Kernel browsers run in isolated virtual machines and ship with live views & replays so you can see exactly what your agent saw and take control when needed
• Agent runtime - launch your web agent on Kernel’s code execution platform to seamlessly connect it to a browser in the cloud
• Simple, clear pricing - pay only for the resources you use. Their straightforward pricing model makes it easy to predict usage costs

⚡️ How does it work?

Kernel’s API makes it simple to launch browsers in the cloud and automate anything on the internet. They work with any browser/web agent framework: Playwright, Puppeteer, Browser Use, Magnitude, and more. Users love their platform for:

• Instant browser spin-ups on-demand
• VM logs & read/write live view
• Video replays
• Browser session reuse
• Residential proxies and auto-CAPTCHA solvers
• Turn any agent into a https endpoint — they host your agent, you invoke it on-demand with a prompt
• & much more soon!
