Last year I got hit by a data breach. Not a big one, but enough to make me paranoid. The security advice was simple: "Change your passwords immediately."

Simple advice. Nightmare execution.

I have 150+ accounts. Changing each password meant:

- Logging in

- Finding the settings page

- Navigating to security/password

- Entering old password, new password, confirming

- Repeating... 150 times

After manually changing about 20 passwords (and losing 3 hours of my life), I thought: "There has to be a better way."

**The idea**

What if AI could just... do this for me? Modern LLMs can navigate websites, fill forms, and handle dynamic content. Why not use that to automate password changes?

**What I built**

The Password App is a macOS app that:

1. Imports your passwords from any password manager (CSV export)

2. Uses AI browser automation to navigate to each site

3. Changes your password automatically

4. Exports the new passwords back to your password manager

The key insight: passwords never leave your machine. Everything runs locally - the AI sees the screen but credentials are injected securely without being exposed to the model.

**Current status**

- Working MVP with ~60% success rate across diverse sites

- Battling anti-bot detection (Cloudflare, CAPTCHA, etc.)

- Free tier available ($2/month in AI credits)

- Paid plans at $2.99/month or $27.99/year

**What's next**

The main challenge is anti-bot detection. My next experiment is using your actual Chrome profile (with real browsing history and cookies) instead of a fresh browser instance. This should dramatically improve success rates.

**Would love feedback**

- Would you use something like this?

- What's your current password hygiene like? (Be honest 😅)

- Any sites that absolutely MUST work for this to be useful?
