Decision

What the current evidence supports

Agent-assisted assessment · independently reviewed · 2026-10-05

Pilot compatible one-shot extraction and rendering with a tested Chromium fallback.

Why
Independent August tests demonstrated useful capabilities alongside rendering and automation failures. Current maker benchmarks still show latency tradeoffs, and recent improvements need workload-specific confirmation.
Next
Retest current Kitesurf on your target sites and client libraries, checking output completeness, rendering, latency, protected-site behavior and fallback before production use.

Constraints

Blockers

  • Beta availability and per-account limits
  • Unsupported video and WebGL workloads
  • Bot challenges requiring real TLS fingerprints
  • No persistent, long-running authenticated sessions
  • Site rendering and automation compatibility require testing
  • Latency tradeoffs and imperfect pixel fidelity
  • Limited independent validation of recent revisions
