UiPath expanded its UiPath Platform, which is aimed at agentic AI automation and orchestration, and lined up a bevy of partners including OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia and Snowflake as it solidified its integration strategy.
The moves by UiPath highlight how AI agents, process automation and automation are starting to converge.
- AI agents, automation, process mining starting to converge
- Agentic AI without process optimization, orchestration will flop
At UiPath's Fusion conference, the company outlined a series of additions to its platform. UiPath announced the following:
- UiPath Maestro Case Management with pre-built orchestration for claims, loans and disputes for modeling, management and optimization.
- New UiPath Maestro Process Apps designed for new processes for multiple industries.
- UiPath Solutions, which combines agents, workflow automation and orchestration. UiPath Solutions include end-to-end processes for financial services, healthcare, customer service and retail.
- UiPath Studio gets UiPath Agents, which integrates agents across development. UiPath's AI Agent Builder has a new visual UI for debugging, optimization and reusable templates. UiPath's conversational agents extend into multiple collaboration apps.
- The company also added new features to UiPath IXP document processing and additions to UiPath Test Cloud.
UiPath's big news revolved around its partnerships and integration with data platforms and models. UiPath said it will integrate its platform with OpenAI ChatGPT via a connector that integrates frontier models with workflows.
Key points about the UiPath-OpenAI partnership:
- OpenAI models and APIs will be integrated into UiPath's enterprise orchestration tools.
- The companies will create a benchmark for using models in agentic automation to evaluate multiple offerings.
- UiPath Maestro will orchestrate UiPath, OpenAI and third party AI agents in business processes via large action models.
- UiPath will be integrated with ChatGPT via model context protocol (MCP).
UiPath also said its Conversational Agent with voice interaction will be powered by Google Gemini models. The move puts Gemini into business processes without coding and manual efforts.
According to UiPath, customers will be able to leverage Google Cloud Vertex AI to trigger, build and manage automation through natural language.
The company also announced a partnership with Nvidia. Key details include:
- UiPath will include Nvidia Nemotron models and Nvidia NIM into its platform and integrate via connectors.
- The companies will look to broaden agent orchestration and usage for Nvidia Nemotron models.
The partnership with Snowflake will combine UiPath's automation platform with Snowflake Cortex AI. The combination puts together AI agent orchestration and UiPath Maestro with Snowflake's data platform.
Snowflake's Cortex Agents will be integrated into UiPath so enterprise can leverage data and build agents for workflows.
UiPath also announced a deal to integrate into Microsoft AI Foundry in a move that will bring its orchestration platform to Microsoft customers across multiple industries. Via MCP, UiPath agents will have bi-directional integrations with Microsoft Copilot and CoPilot studies and be able to interact with Microsoft agents and models.
