# Minion.ai

**Minion.ai** was a San Francisco-based startup focused on browser automation and agentic AI — software agents capable of autonomously operating web browsers to complete tasks on behalf of users. The company was active in the 2023–2024 period when browser-based AI agents were a major area of venture investment.

## Jan's Employment

[[Jan_Wilmake]] joined Minion.ai as a remote contractor in approximately **March 2024**, working from Groningen. The role was his first direct exposure to an early-stage AI company in the San Francisco ecosystem. The engagement lasted approximately one month, ending around **April 2024**.

The Minion.ai period was sandwiched between Jan's freelance contract work and his subsequent role at [[Slimmer_AI]] (Groningen). It represents Jan's first attempt at working within a California-based AI startup as a remote employee rather than an independent contractor or founder.

## Context

The role preceded Jan's major pivot into building Cloudflare-based infrastructure tools. Browser automation and agentic AI subsequently became central themes in Jan's own work, particularly through [[ActionSchema]] (his AI-powered spreadsheet and data pipeline tool) and his later Cloudflare-based agent infrastructure, culminating in [[Browser_MCP]] in 2026.
