Systems and methods for discovering automatable tasks

According to at least one aspect, a system for collecting computer usage information is provided. The system includes a hardware processor, a display coupled to the hardware processor to display a user interface, and a computer-readable storage medium storing processor-executable instructions that cause the hardware processor to receive an indication of an action being performed by a user on the system, cause the system to wait before updating the user interface in response to the action performed by the user, gather contextual information associated with the action while the system is waiting to process the action performed by the user to update the user interface, cause the system to update the user interface in response to the action performed by the user after gathering the contextual information, and store information indicative of the action and the contextual information.
