Most AI agents today are throttled by their own "eyes." When an agent uses standard Puppeteer or Playwright, it relies on a high-latency loop of screenshot -> base64 string -> VLM. This process doesn't just add 80ms+ of lag; it inflates every interaction by 30k–50k tokens just to transmit the image data.
Watch: Zero-Copy vs. Traditional CDP
Performance Comparison
| Metric | Traditional CDP | Glazyr Viz |
|---|---|---|
| Vision Latency | 86ms | 7.3ms |
| Token Overhead | High (Base64) | Minimal (Pointer) |
| Data Used (Session) | 73.86 MB | 0.31 MB |
Glazyr Viz moves the agent inside the Chromium rendering pipeline. By utilizing the Viz Subsystem and Zero-Copy DMA, we eliminate CPU-bound encoding. The result is a high-fidelity "Optic Nerve" that allows for sub-8ms perception—critical for dynamic, JS-heavy applications where traditional agents often "hallucinate" on stale data.
