## The use case: how The Prompting Company deploys Kernel

The Prompting Company runs AI-powered browser automations on Kernel's cloud browsers to collect real, user-facing answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini. This lets it show customers how their products are cited and ranked, and it uses Kernel profiles to persist logins across many paid LLM accounts.
