Introduces SCUBA (CRMBench), a 300-task benchmark on live Salesforce sandboxes for computer-use agents, with milestone-based evaluation, latency/cost metrics, and demonstration-augmented settings.
Problem
Existing computer-use benchmarks do not capture enterprise CRM workflows on platforms like Salesforce, especially tasks that write or change data and configuration, and do not report latency and cost alongside success.
Approach
A realistic Salesforce sandbox benchmark built from user interviews with rule-based milestone evaluators, task-level config reset, asynchronous parallel evaluation, and human demonstrations distilled from annotated trajectories to improve success while cutting time and cost.
Key results
- Zero-shot, the best browser-use agent GPT-5 reaches 51.33% success, while open-source UI-TARS-1.5-7B reaches 2.67% and OpenCUA-7B 0.67%.
- With human demonstrations, Claude computer-use reaches 47.69% success and Gemini 2.5 Pro (browser-use) reaches 46.15% with lower time, and demonstrations raise success for most agents.
- Computer-use agents have lower latency than browser-use agents but lower success; grounding and planning are main failure causes.
Surprising findings
- Open-source computer-use agents that score well on OSWorld achieve under 5% success on the Salesforce benchmark in zero-shot.
- Demonstrations sometimes increased steps and costs for some agents (e.g., Gemini 2.5 Pro) because agents found shortcuts absent from demonstrations.
Limitations
- Open-source models are tested only at 7B scale and few open computer-use agents are included.
- Browser-use DOM parser needed substantial customization for Salesforce; out-of-box parsing fails on some elements.
- Results depend on a relatively small set of 300 tasks from 60 templates and a single Salesforce developer sandbox.
