WebMCP: Ditching Dumb Screenshots for Smart Web Tools
Tired of AI agents fumbling through websites like blindfolded kids? WebMCP hands them structured tools instead. But after 20 years watching Valley hype, I'm asking: does this fix the web or just pad Google's wallet?
⚡ Key Takeaways
- WebMCP slashes AI agent costs and boosts reliability by turning websites into direct function calls.
- Simple HTML tweaks or JS registration make sites agent-ready, reusing existing frontend code.
- Google and Microsoft lead, but watch for browser lock-in as adoption grows.
