Claude in Chrome examples: 20 real use cases with prompts

Source-checked cases, each with what happened and the prompt.

  • Get real flight and hotel prices from a Claude Code travel skill, which only guessed price ranges until it was given a browser (partial)Recreated promptEvidence: Described by posterPartial

    Christopher Johnson built a Claude Code skill in about twenty minutes to act as a travel agent, sorting flights and places to stay for a business trip. Asked for real prices, it gave ranges, such as 'Flights typically run $280 to $420', and none of them was a price they could actually pay. Claude explained that the booking sites load prices with JavaScript after the page renders, which its tools couldn't see, so it had been estimating. With the Claude in Chrome extension installed and the same skill and request, it opened the sites and returned three specific places to stay with current prices and direct links. It was slower and used more of the plan's usage limits. They kept 'Act without asking' off, and Claude never bought anything.

  • Fill three web onboarding forms from Google Drive files with Claude in Chrome, at a heavy usage cost (partial)Recreated promptEvidence: Described by posterPartial

    Evan Solomon asked Claude in Chrome to fill out three web onboarding forms using information scattered across their Google Drive. It worked very well: it read the pages, found the information in Drive, filled the fields and handled multi-step forms with almost no hand-holding. But it took 574 model round-trips and about 223M tokens, roughly $350-400 in API-equivalent compute, and used up the Max plan's 5-hour window in one session. Solomon notes it was slow, got slower and pricier as the session grew, and that running it on the top model was a mistake for form-filling.

  • Build a five-question Google Form with an AI browser agent: Gemini handed it back, Claude finished it (partial)Recreated promptEvidence: Described by posterPartial

    Irena Palamani Xhurxhi asked Gemini to build a Google Form. It got partway, then stopped and asked Xhurxhi to take over because it couldn't change the question type in the interface. Xhurxhi gave the same task to Claude in the browser and went back to other work; when they returned, the form was done, with all five questions, correct types, descriptions and required fields. Asked about it, Claude said it had struggled with the same parts, trying clicks, JavaScript workarounds and keyboard navigation, but kept going rather than handing it back.

  • Book a monthly allergy-prescription appointment on a fiddly Japanese clinic site with Claude in ChromeRecreated promptEvidence: Described by posterBeginner-friendly

    Ved Kamat, who lives in Japan, gets the same pollen-allergy prescription every month and finds clinic booking sites awkward, with odd layouts and the same details asked for again and again. They had Claude in Chrome do the booking: it found the booking page, chose the return-patient appointment type, picked the earliest slot as asked and filled in the patient details. Kamat only had to type their password when Claude asked; payment details would also have stayed with them. They plan to hand over more non-critical bookings.
