70% of Companies Are Wasting Millions on AI Automation That Doesn't Work
Your employees spend nearly a full work week every year on repetitive tasks. Manual data entry costs businesses £37.3 billion annually in lost revenue. That's not a typo. That's real money disappearing because humans have to copy-paste, click, and type things computers should handle.
The Automation Paradox: Everyone Thinks They're Winning
McKinsey says companies are boosting productivity through automation. But Gartner predicts over 40% of agentic AI projects get canceled by the end of 2027. That's a catastrophic failure rate. Why do so many companies pour money into automation that never delivers? Because they're using the wrong tools.
Browser-Based Agents Are a Joke
- ●OpenAI's Operator scored 38.1% on OSWorld, the only benchmark that actually tests AI agents on real computer use.
- ●Anthropic's Claude Computer Use landed at 72.5% in the same benchmark.
- ●Browser-first agents can't handle desktop apps, native interfaces, or edge cases that real workers face every day.
70% of workers say the biggest opportunity of automation lies in reducing time wasted on repetitive work. The problem is most computer use agents can't actually handle real-world complexity. They break on simple things like pop-up windows, changing layouts, or unexpected error messages.
Your RPA Investment Is Stuck in 2015
UiPath and other RPA tools promised to eliminate manual work. They helped for the easy stuff. But modern business processes are messy. They involve multiple systems, human approvals, and changing interfaces. RPA bots break when processes change. They crash when something unexpected happens. They require constant maintenance from IT teams that could be building product, not fixing broken automation.
Why Coasty Actually Works
Coasty isn't playing the game the way everyone else does. It controls real desktops, browsers, and terminals. Not just API calls. Not just browser automation. We hit 82% on OSWorld, the standard benchmark for computer use agents. That's not a fluke. That's what happens when you train on real screen states, edge cases, and failure modes instead of synthetic test cases. Coasty can handle desktop apps, native interfaces, and multi-step workflows without needing scripts written for every single scenario.
The Bottom Line
Don't let your company be one of the 40% that cancels its agentic AI projects. Pick a computer use agent that can actually do the work. Desktop automation matters. Real-world complexity matters. Coasty.ai gives you a free tier and supports BYOK so you can start automating without locking yourself into a vendor. Stop paying people to do copy-paste work in 2026. It's embarrassing.
