🔥 Somiibo 1.0.0 🔥

Somiibo was first built and released in 2017 and it was a game changer for a lot of reasons: no other platform offered the breadth and depth of automation like Somiibo did. Somiibo helped hundreds of thousands of users to automate nearly every social media site and even included an API for users to build their own modules. However, the Internet and social media has evolved so much since then and maintaining Somiibo became increasingly difficult as the underlying structure simply was not built to be as scalable as the environment would eventually demand it to be. Thus, we decided to start with a blank slate by building the entire thing from scratch, taking thousands of feedback surveys and data points into consideration to build the next generation automation platform.

Somiibo is now browser-first and has been built from the ground up to appeal to anyone who uses the internet, not just business, brands, or entrepreneurs. It still packs a punch in terms of productivity and it really shines as an app when you use it beyond how you would use a standard browser.

Somiibo has 3 main focuses

• Browser: Somiibo is designed to be a browser that acts as a viable alternative to Chrome, featuring tabs, bookmarks, history, advanced settings, adblocking, security, privacy, and more.
• Session control: Standard browsers use a single Session that is shared across all tabs and windows. Somiibo gives you control to create and utilize an unlimited number of Sessions as well as assign a custom IP and User Agent to each Session
• Automation: The Somiibo API is designed to make automation possible on any website, eliminating the need to perform repetitive tasks manually. You can use Somiibo’s prebuilt modules or harness the power of Node.js to write your own.
