Download your statements, invoices and reports automatically, from the sites you sign into
Updated
To automate downloading files from websites you sign into, sign in to each in Chrome and ask BrowseWiz for the files, such as last month's statements and new invoices. It clicks the download buttons in your Chrome, saves each file to your Downloads folder and, with the downloads permission, logs its name and size in a Google Sheet.
Add to Chrome – it's freeAsk for this month's files once
Say you collect the same three PDFs for your bookkeeping every month: a bank statement, a card statement and the invoices from a software vendor. Sign in to the three sites in Chrome, then type this into BrowseWiz:
On the 2nd of every month at 9:00, download last month's statement from my bank at online.northfield-bank.example, my card statement from cards.harborline.example and the new invoices from last month at account.cloudmetric.example. Log each file in a new Google Sheet called "Monthly files", with the columns Site, Document, File name, Size, Status and Date. If a site asks me to sign in, write "Signed out" in Status and move on to the next site.
Swap in your own sites. The last sentence is worth keeping: a site that has signed you out gets a row that says so, instead of a missing file.
The log after the November run
Each row is one file the run downloaded, named the way the site named it. The second invoice broke off mid-download, so its row says so and you know to fetch that one again.

How it works
Sign in to each site as usual
Open your bank, your card and your vendor's site in Chrome and sign in, with a two-factor code if it asks. BrowseWiz never asks for your passwords.
Let BrowseWiz see downloads, once
Click Let BrowseWiz see downloads on the plan card, or in Settings → Tools, and allow it in Chrome's prompt. With it, BrowseWiz waits for each file to finish and reports its name, its size and whether it saved. A scheduled run never asks for it, so grant it before the first run.
Approve the plan
BrowseWiz shows its plan first: the sites, the files, the sheet and the schedule. Nothing runs until you approve it. Then grant tab access and sign in to Google once when asked, and it saves the plan as a scheduled task.
Files land in your Downloads folder
On each run, Chrome saves the files in your Downloads folder, and the run writes a row for each one in the sheet. BrowseWiz alerts you in Chrome when the run finishes or fails. See how the browser agent handles downloads.
Run it every month on a set day
A scheduled task can run on set days of the month, such as the 2nd at 9:00, and runs at most once a day. It first runs at the scheduled time, not when you approve it. To try it sooner, use Run task now in the scheduled tasks drawer: it runs once and doesn't move the next scheduled run.
Scheduled runs happen only while your computer is on and Chrome is open. See how scheduled tasks work.
Monthly bank and credit card statements
Banks and card issuers post a statement PDF each month behind your online banking sign-in. Ask BrowseWiz to open the statements page and download the latest one for each account. It works in the Chrome where you signed in, so your bank's two-factor check happens when you sign in, not during the run.
Banks end sessions quickly, though. If yours has signed you out by the 2nd, the run stops at its sign-in page and the row says Signed out, so you know to sign in and use Run task now.
Invoices from vendor and supplier sites
Software vendors, utilities and suppliers keep their invoices in an account section of their site. Name the site and which invoices you want, such as the ones dated last month, and BrowseWiz clicks each download link in turn. With the downloads permission, each click waits until its file has saved, so it doesn't click twice or skip ahead.
Report exports from portals
Some portals build a CSV or XLSX export a few seconds after you click. BrowseWiz still catches a file that starts late and reports it on its next step. If an export is still downloading after a minute, its row says so: check your Downloads folder for it once it's done.
Downloads from sites that require a login
BrowseWiz works in the Chrome where you're already signed in, so it reaches the files your account can see, with no password to hand over and no cookies to export. It doesn't sign in for you: you sign in, it clicks.
For data from those sites in a sheet rather than files, see how to scrape a website behind a login.
It saves files and never opens them
BrowseWiz only saves the files a site gives it. It doesn't open, read or run them, so nothing inside a statement or an invoice reaches BrowseWiz or its AI model. Of each file, only its name and size reach the AI model, with whether it finished saving.
The pages it reads to find the download links do go to BrowseWiz's AI providers, as in any browser task. The safety check before each click asks you, or blocks the step, when a click would send, pay, delete or submit something you didn't ask for.
A script, an invoice service, a bulk downloader or BrowseWiz?
Write a script or an RPA flow if…
- You can write and maintain a Playwright or Selenium script, or a Power Automate flow, and want full control over each file.
- You're fine handling the files in code. In Playwright, downloads go to a temporary folder and are deleted when the browser context closes, unless the script saves them Source 1.
- Power Automate for desktop's Download from web action can keep a file's original name or save it under a name you choose, but its sign-in option covers only HTTP authentication, not a site's sign-in page Source 2.
Use an invoice-fetching service if…
- Invoices from many vendors are the whole job, and you want them passed on to your accountant or accounting software.
- GetMyInvoices starts at €19 a month before VAT for 20 documents and 5 portals, stores your portal passwords and can transfer documents to your tax advisor Source 3.
- Invoice Radar collects invoices from 350+ web portals Source 4, from $17 a month for 300 document credits a year Source 5.
Use a bulk-download extension if…
- The files are all linked on one page you have open, and you want them now, not on a schedule.
- All Links Downloader, for example, scans the current page and lists every link to download. Its free version stops at 7 downloads from one page Source 6.
Use BrowseWiz if…
- The files sit behind sign-ins you already use, two-factor included, on a few sites.
- You want them every month on a set day, with a sheet that lists each file and whether it saved.
- You'd rather describe the files in plain words than write a script or build a flow.
What to know before you start
- Names and folders stay as they are. Files keep the site's names in Chrome's Downloads folder. BrowseWiz can't rename, move, read or upload them.
- The downloads permission. Without it, BrowseWiz can't confirm that a file was saved. It then reports a file only when the link itself names it, so the sheet can miss files.
- Repeated downloads. Chrome may block a site's second and later downloads until you allow Automatic downloads for that site in Chrome's site settings Source 7. BrowseWiz says so when it suspects a block.
- Ask where to save each file. With that Chrome setting on, each download waits for the save dialog, and after a minute BrowseWiz reports it as still downloading. Turn it off before a scheduled run.
- Chrome has to be open. Scheduled runs happen only while your computer is on and Chrome is open.
- Getting in. It doesn't solve captchas or sign in for you. If a site has signed you out, the run ends on its sign-in page until you sign in again in Chrome.
- A few portals per run. It clicks each download in a real browser tab and can wait up to a minute for each file, so it suits a few portals per run, not hundreds of files.
- Site terms. Each site's terms apply, and some don't allow automated access, even to your own account. For bank statements, your bank's own statement emails or a transaction feed into your accounting software may be the better choice.
- Check the first run. An AI model carries out each run from the approved plan, so results can vary. Compare the sheet with your Downloads folder after the first run.

Questions
Sign in to your online banking in Chrome, then ask BrowseWiz to download last month's statement on a set day each month, such as the 2nd at 9:00. Allow it to see downloads once, so it can confirm each file. Banks sign you out often, so a run may stop at the sign-in page. If your bank emails statements or feeds your accounting software, that may be simpler.
To Chrome's download location, which is your Downloads folder unless you changed it Source 7. Each file keeps the name the site gave it, and BrowseWiz can't rename or move it. The sheet lists each file's name, so you can find it there.
We don't suggest it. Amazon's Conditions of Use leave "data mining, robots, or similar data gathering and extraction tools" out of the license to use its services Source 8. Use Amazon's own options instead: the Invoice link under each order in Your Orders Source 9, or, on Amazon Business, the Download order documents menu on the Reports page, for up to 2,000 orders at a time Source 10.
No. It only saves them. It doesn't open, read or run a file, so nothing inside a statement or invoice reaches BrowseWiz or its AI model. The model sees only each file's name, its size and whether it finished saving.
No. Files keep the site's names in your Downloads folder, and BrowseWiz can't rename, move or upload them. If you need invoices sent on to your accountant, an invoice-fetching service such as GetMyInvoices can transfer documents to your tax advisor Source 3.
