Your employees are wasting a quarter of their week on manual busywork. That is not a metaphor. It is a hard number. Workers spend 25% of their time on repetitive manual tasks that they could automate. If you have 100 employees earning $60,000 a year, you are flushing $1.5 million down the toilet every year on tasks that a computer could do in seconds.
The RPA Nightmare Is Just Getting Worse
Robotic Process Automation promised the world in 2015. It promised to let you drag and drop workflows and forget about them. Reality is different. RPA vendors like UiPath and Automation Anywhere are selling you expensive licenses and then forcing you to maintain brittle bots that break every time a website changes. Companies are stuck with thousands of dollars per bot per year and zero visibility into whether those bots are actually saving time or just sitting there waiting for an exception.
Why RPA Is Dead
- RPA bots crash when a webpage changes layout
- You need a dedicated team just to patch broken workflows
- Costs are $5,000 to $15,000 per bot per year
- ROI is often negative because maintenance costs spiral out of control
- RPA cannot handle unstructured data or dynamic interfaces
One study found that 39% of workers re-enter the same information across different systems because no one has built the automation bridge. That is not a workflow problem. That is a design failure that costs businesses billions every year.
The Real Problem With Current AI Agents
OpenAI released a Computer-Using Agent that scored 38.1% on the OSWorld benchmark. Anthropic's Computer Use is better but still hovers around 72%. These numbers sound impressive until you realize that real workflows are messier than a benchmark test. OpenAI's agent has been blocked by websites. Anthropic's agent struggles with multi-step tasks that require context switching. Most companies cannot deploy these technologies because they are black boxes that require constant human supervision.
Enter Coasty: The Computer Use Agent That Actually Works
This is where Coasty changes everything. Coasty is the #1 computer use agent. We hit 85.6% on OSWorld with our in-house model using public results. We also scored 82.81% on the official OSWorld leaderboard at osworld-v1.xlang.ai. That is higher than every competitor. Coasty controls real desktops, browsers, and terminals. It does not just make API calls. It can run agent swarms in parallel to handle multiple tasks at once. You can deploy it on your own desktops or use our cloud VMs. We support BYOK so your data stays in your environment. There is even a free tier if you want to test it yourself.
What You Can Actually Do With Coasty
- Automate data entry across multiple systems without writing code
- Schedule reports to run automatically at 2 AM
- Handle exceptions and recover from errors without human intervention
- Scale from one task to hundreds in parallel using agent swarms
- Integrate with your existing tools without forcing you to rip out your stack
You are still paying people to copy-paste data in 2026. That is absurd. The technology exists to fix this. The question is whether your company is going to stay stuck in the past or actually use AI agent for business automation. If you want to see what is possible, try Coasty for free at coasty.ai. Stop wasting time. Start automating.
