Your Team Is Spending 10+ Hours a Week Typing Invoice Numbers Into Spreadsheets. That Stops Now.

How Coasty's Computer Use Agent Handles This

Coasty isn't a template-matching tool or a brittle RPA script that breaks the moment a vendor changes their invoice layout. It's a computer use agent, meaning it actually sees your screen, opens your AP software, reads the invoice the same way a human would, and fills in every field correctly. It handles PDFs, scanned images, emailed attachments, and portal-based invoices without you building a single workflow. Here's what the computer use process looks like: Coasty opens the invoice source, whether that's your email inbox, a shared drive, or a vendor portal. It reads the document visually, extracting vendor name, invoice number, date, line items, tax, and totals. It logs into your ERP or accounting software and enters the data directly, exactly as a trained AP clerk would. It then flags exceptions, like mismatched PO numbers or duplicate invoice IDs, for human review instead of just silently passing them through. At 500+ invoices per hour, a task that used to consume a full workday is finished before your team's morning standup. Coasty scored 82% on the OSWorld benchmark, the gold standard for computer use AI, which means it handles real-world software interfaces with a reliability that older automation tools simply can't match.

Why This Beats Everything Else

• ●No template setup required. Legacy OCR tools and RPA bots need you to map every field for every vendor layout. Coasty's computer use agent reads invoices visually, the same way a person does, so a new vendor format isn't a crisis, it's just another invoice.
• ●It works inside your existing software. No API integrations, no middleware, no IT project. Coasty uses your actual ERP, QuickBooks, SAP, NetSuite, or whatever you're running, as a computer use agent operating the interface directly.
• ●Error rates drop to near zero. Manual data entry carries a 1.6% error rate per invoice. At scale, that means hundreds of wrong entries a month, duplicate payments, and reconciliation nightmares. Coasty's computer use approach verifies as it goes.
• ●Cost per invoice goes from $18-26 to under $2. The math is brutal in your favor. If you process 500 invoices a month manually, you're spending up to $13,000 a month on that task alone. Automation with a computer use agent cuts that by over 90%.

Real Results

When finance teams deploy Coasty's computer use agent for invoice processing, a few things happen fast. First, the backlog disappears. Invoices that were sitting in a queue for days get processed within the hour they arrive. Second, early payment discounts, the ones vendors offer for paying within 10 days, actually become capturable because the cycle time is no longer 2 weeks. Third, AP staff stop doing data entry and start doing actual finance work, catching anomalies, managing vendor relationships, and supporting month-end close. One benchmark from the IDP space found that automating invoice processing can deliver a 400% increase in employee productivity on AP tasks. When you're no longer paying a human $18 to $26 per invoice to type numbers, and you're no longer eating late payment penalties, and you're no longer reconciling duplicate payments at a 2% rate, the savings compound fast. A team processing 1,000 invoices a month could realistically recover $20,000 or more in direct costs every single month, before you even count the productivity gains.
