Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Prateek, co-founder of Coasty.
Last year, an AI agent deleted our production database. DEV Community That's not a joke it happened while running directly on our laptop. We realized: if computer-use agents are going to do real work, they need their own computers.
So we built Coasty AI employees that each run in their own isolated cloud VM. Complete AI Training They browse, click, type, fill forms, and navigate apps exactly like a human sitting at a desk. Coasty But they work 24/7, never make excuses, and cost a fraction of a human hire.
What makes Coasty different:
#1 on OSWorld benchmark at 82% beating Claude (62.9%), GPT agents (69.9%), and UiPath (67.1%) coasty on 369 real-world computer tasks
True VM isolation not containers, not your laptop. Each agent gets a dedicated virtual machine. Product Hunt If it goes rogue, your data is safe
Solves CAPTCHAs up to Level 6 autonomously
Scheduled Routines set recurring tasks (like cron jobs) that run automatically
Full audit trail watch every click in real-time or replay any session Coasty
Starts at $0/month not $200/mo like Operator or Perplexity Computer
Who it's for: Solo founders who can't afford to hire. Agencies that need to scale without headcount. Healthcare, insurance, legal, and accounting teams drowning in repetitive computer work.
PH-exclusive offer: Use code PHLAUNCH for 25% off any paid plan for 3 months.
We have 700+ people on our waitlist and real sessions you can watch at coasty.ai. Every session is recorded no scripts, no edits.
I'd love your honest feedback: What's the first task you'd hand off to an AI employee? And what concerns would stop you from trusting one?
A lot of tools today describe themselves as "AI employees", but when you look at the architecture the real shift seems to be something deeper: agents finally getting their own computers to operate in.
Most current agent setups still run inside a developer’s machine, a browser sandbox, or some limited automation layer. Giving each agent its own isolated VM changes the model quite a bit — the agent stops being just a script and starts behaving more like an operator in an environment.
Curious how you think about this internally.
Do you see Coasty primarily evolving as a platform for deploying AI employees, or more as infrastructure for running computer-use agents at scale?
Really good product and the OS World benchmark results are just a cherry on top, really good work and getting a product out that actually works rather than just demos
