What is Robotic Process Automation (RPA)?

RPA handles the mindless, manual tasks that weigh teams down- freeing them up to do what they’re great at. Think about tasks like entering invoices, updating CRM systems, or copying data between spreadsheets. RPA works with existing systems to get these tasks done quickly and accurately.

RPA connects different apps and tools that wouldn’t normally “talk” to each other. With UiPath the development of these workflows has never been easier. Instead of writing complex code, teams use visual tools to design sequences. Bespoke automations once took developers painstaking hours to set up, with some being simply too complex to realise.

The benefits of RPA

Speed

Handling inefficiencies frees up staff for more meaningful work.

Accuracy

Avoiding mistakes that come with manual work.

ROI

Many companies see quick returns after implementing RPA.

What RPA isn’t

RPA is great, but it’s not magic.

It handles rule-based tasks that follow the same steps every time. When things get messy, like dealing with exceptions or making decisions, you’ll need something smarter. That’s where advanced automation and AI take over.
