Computer Use
Your HR Team Is Spending 10 Hours Per Hire on Admin Work. Every Single Time.
Coasty's computer use agent automates HR onboarding, HRIS data entry, and benefits enrollment. 82% OSWorld. Handle 50+ onboardings monthly, hands-free.
Here's what a typical HR professional's week looks like. A new hire starts Monday. You spend the next two days manually entering their info into the HRIS, copying it into the payroll system, re-entering it into the benefits portal, provisioning system access one tool at a time, and chasing down a W-4 that got lost in someone's inbox. Research puts the average admin time at 8 to 11 hours per hire. If you're onboarding 50 people a month, that's up to 550 hours of pure copy-paste work. That's 13 full work weeks. Gone. Every month. And the errors? Manual data entry in HR carries a 1 to 8 percent error rate, which sounds small until a new hire gets their first paycheck wrong, or shows up on day one with no system access because someone fat-fingered their start date. One in three new employees quits within the first 90 days, and bad onboarding is one of the top reasons why. The painful part is that none of this work actually requires a human brain. It just requires a human sitting at a computer, clicking through the same screens, filling in the same fields, over and over again. That's exactly what a computer use agent is built to do.
How Coasty's Computer Use Agent Handles This
Coasty works the way a human HR coordinator would, except it doesn't get tired, doesn't make typos, and doesn't need to be trained every time you switch HRIS platforms. It sees your screen, reads the forms, and operates your actual software, whether that's Workday, ADP, BambooHR, Rippling, or any other system you're already using. No API integrations required. No custom connectors. No IT project. You tell Coasty what needs to happen for a new hire, and it navigates every system, fills every field, and confirms every submission. It handles I-9 and W-4 form processing, HRIS profile creation, payroll system enrollment, benefits portal setup, and access provisioning across your software stack. The same task that takes an HR coordinator 8 to 11 hours gets done in a fraction of the time, with zero manual data entry errors. Coasty scored 82 percent on OSWorld, the toughest real-world computer use benchmark that exists, meaning it handles the messy, multi-step, multi-application workflows that simpler automation tools completely fall apart on. New hires get their access provisioned before day one instead of waiting the typical 3 to 5 days. Payroll data is accurate from the first cycle. And your HR team gets their time back.
Why This Beats Everything Else
- ●No integration tax. Traditional RPA and workflow tools require custom-built connectors for every system. Coasty uses computer use to operate your software visually, the same way a person would, so it works with whatever you already have without a single line of code or an IT ticket.
- ●It handles the weird stuff. About 50 percent of RPA projects fail because real workflows are messy. Forms change, portals time out, pop-ups appear. Coasty's computer use agent adapts in real time instead of breaking and sending you an error email at 2am.
- ●Scales without headcount. Whether you're onboarding 5 people this month or 500, the workload on your HR team stays flat. You're not hiring coordinators to handle growth, you're letting a computer use agent absorb the volume.
- ●Poor onboarding costs up to 200 percent of a new hire's salary in turnover losses. Getting it right, fast, and consistently is not a nice-to-have. Coasty makes every onboarding experience identical in quality, regardless of how slammed your team is.
HR professionals spend an average of 10 hours on admin work per new hire. At 50 hires a month, that's 500 hours of work your team shouldn't be doing. Coasty's computer use agent handles all of it, and it doesn't call in sick on Mondays.
Real Results
When companies hand their onboarding admin work to a computer use agent, a few things happen fast. First, the backlog disappears. HR teams that were drowning during hiring surges suddenly have capacity again, because the agent is processing new hires in parallel, not sequentially. Second, day-one experience improves dramatically. New employees show up to a working laptop, active accounts, and a completed benefits enrollment instead of spending their first week chasing IT and HR for access. That 3 to 5 day access provisioning delay drops to near zero. Third, payroll errors stop being a monthly fire drill. When data flows directly from the onboarding workflow into payroll without a human re-typing it, the 1 to 8 percent manual error rate goes away. No more wrong first paychecks, no more correction cycles, no more angry Slack messages from finance. One franchise operator reported cutting manual onboarding and payroll processing from 10 hours per cycle down to a fraction of that after automating the data entry work. The math is the same for any company running volume hiring. The hours don't lie.
HR is supposed to be about people, not copy-pasting the same employee data into six different systems. If your team is still doing that manually, you're not just wasting time, you're risking errors, slowing down new hires, and burning out the people who should be focused on culture, retention, and strategy. Coasty's computer use agent takes the admin off their plate completely. It works in your existing tools, requires no IT setup, and handles 50 or more onboardings a month without breaking a sweat.
