Reduck raises $3m pre-seed so AI agents can run browser scripts

Reduck gives AI agents a library of deterministic browser automation scripts, served over MCP, so they can work with websites that offer no API instead of clicking through them screen by screen.
Reduck is a French-American start-up that builds browser automation for AI agents. Its product, Reduck MCP, lets an agent discover, run and create scripts that automate a website, so a task on a site with no API or MCP server becomes a single tool call instead of a long sequence of screenshots and clicks. It announced a $3 million pre-seed round in October 2026.
Agents that operate a browser visually are slow, costly because every screenshot is added to the model's context, and inconsistent from run to run. Reduck replaces that with scripts: its official library holds more than 1,200 ready-to-run scripts across over 250 websites, and the company runs a swarm of agents that write and repair scripts at scale. It says agents using it are on average three times faster and cheaper across the tasks it benchmarked, from collecting invoices from several vendors to exporting profiles from LinkedIn Sales Navigator.
The company is preparing a developer offer for teams building agent harnesses around systems without APIs, such as insurance and healthcare portals and internal CRMs, and plans vertical applications built on its scripts, starting with generative engine optimisation.
Teams that use AI agents for repetitive browser work: finance staff collecting invoices, sales teams exporting prospect lists, and product teams preparing demo data. Customers quoted on its announcement include the product lead of BentoML and the chief product officer of Hyperlex.
