What's New in 100xBot - December 2025: The Month We Made Browser Automation Feel Human

TL;DR: December brought the biggest update to 100xBot yet—171 commits, 67,000+ lines of new code, and a complete rethinking of how you interact with your AI browser assistant. We introduced granular permissions, a full PostgreSQL database running in your browser, native PDF and archive processing, and a smarter agent that remembers and learns.

The Headline: Your Browser Just Became a Supercomputer

This month, we asked ourselves: What would it take for 100xBot to handle enterprise-level tasks without ever leaving your browser?

The answer was ambitious. We needed to give users complete control over what the agent can do. We needed professional-grade document processing. We needed SQL databases. We needed the agent to be smarter about when to act and when to ask.
