# Introducing web-agent

- Published: April 16, 2026

Firecrawl `web-agent` is an open framework for building AI agents that search, scrape, and interact with the web. Powered by the same architecture behind our `/agent` endpoint.

### Highlights

* **Bring any model**: Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, or your own. You control the logic, tools, and infra.
* **One command, full stack**: `$ firecrawl create agent` gives you `/scrape`, `/search`, and `/interact` in a plan-act loop, parallel sub-agents for concurrent research, and your choice of Streaming UI, API server, or library templates.
* **Teachable by design**: Add Skill playbooks and your agent learns reusable routines. Paginate e-commerce sites, run multi-source research, and extract structured data your way.
