ProblemOperators aim the Bot at systems that already have good APIs, where it is the slowest available option.

TechniqueChoose the janky internal tool, vendor portal, licensing site or admin screen your team clicks through weekly, and let the Bot drive it.

Why it worksComputer use is the only option there, so its cost and brittleness are being compared against a human clicking rather than against an API call.

When to useAnything with no API and no MCP.

When not toAnything with a connector, an API or a CLI; use those instead.
