Browser Nodes
Browse pages inside Creatos and extract readable content
Browser nodes let you open and navigate web pages directly on the canvas.
Desktop App
Browser nodes are designed for the Creatos desktop app experience.
What You Can Do
- Open URLs without leaving your flow
- Type a search query and Creatos opens a Google results page
- Navigate back/forward and refresh pages
- Capture page text content for downstream AI use
- Connect browser output to AI nodes
Basic Workflow
- Add a Browser node
- Enter a URL or search query in the address bar
- Load the target page
- Use Extract Content to pull readable page text into the node
- Connect the browser node to an AI node
What extraction gives you
Extract Content pulls readable text from the page. It is for capturing context, not preserving the full visual layout of the site.
When to Use Browser Nodes Instead of Content Nodes
Use a browser node when you want to:
- inspect a live page before deciding what to keep
- search multiple pages without leaving the canvas
- extract page text after checking the source manually
Use a content node when you already know what material you want to keep.
Tips
- Rename the node to meaningful labels like

- Combine browser and content nodes when you need both live pages and curated notes
