UiPath, a provider of enterprise automation software, has introduced new platform features designed to help customers accelerate automation by leveraging AI-powered capabilities. These new features are intended to improve information flow and enable organizations to automate processes more effectively, resulting in a quicker time-to-value and increased productivity.
The UiPath Platform's advancements in AI-powered automation provide a vast array of options for both basic and complex automations. For example, UiPath Document Understanding now includes 35 models that continuously learn while validating essential business documents, reducing the need for human intervention. In addition, the platform utilizes the most recent language models, such as Flan-T5, for UiPath Communications Mining's generative extraction features. In addition, clients have the option of bringing their own AI models or integrating external models from OpenAI, Microsoft, Google Cloud, or AWS.
Support for Generative AI via the OpenAI connector, which provides predictive text and conversation completion capabilities based on ChatGPT functionality and the Azure OpenAI Service, is a notable addition. This enables users to automate duties involving text generation and conversation interactions.
The platform also introduces new connectors for prominent AI services such as Google Vision, Microsoft Vision, Microsoft Sentiment, Microsoft Translator, and AWS SageMaker, making it simpler for businesses to integrate these services into automation workflows.
Clipboard AI is a thrilling feature designed specifically for non-technical knowledge employees. Clipboard AI learns and automates repetitive tasks, such as copying and pasting data from various sources into various formats, thereby eradicating the need for human intervention. This allows non-technical users to optimize their workflows and prioritize more important tasks.
Low-Code Development Platform
“Our open, flexible, and enterprise-ready platform enables customers to harness innovation through the AI ecosystem,” said Graham Sheldon, Chief Product Officer at UiPath.
UiPath introduces Studio Web, a browser-based low-code development platform with tools for professional developers and an intuitive interface for citizen developers, to enhance the developer experience. This enables users to access the platform from any device without the need to install software, thereby facilitating collaboration and accelerating automation development.
In addition, the update would enhance Attended Automation, allowing developers to trigger automations based on specific user actions. By enabling users to add custom rules without modifying the fundamental applications, enhanced callouts also make existing software wiser.
The enterprise-grade management, governance, and security features of UiPath are also enhanced in this release. Robot livestreaming, remote control, and video recording capabilities provide maximum visibility into unattended robot activities, ensuring reliable and verifiable results. Automation Cloud Robots offer more flexibility and choice in terms of robot capacity and deployment options, making UiPath a leader in the industry.
Solution Accelerators
Additionally, UiPath introduces solution accelerators that provide pre-packaged technical documentation, workflows, and models, reducing the time and effort required for discovery, design, and development. Customers can also access various support programs, including UiPath Activate Success and UiPath Enterprise Success, which provide expert advice, mission-critical support, and personalized guidance to ensure successful automation implementation.“The continuous innovation of AI-powered automation in the UiPath Platform equates to limitless potential for organizations to meet their goals faster. Our open, flexible, and enterprise-ready platform enables customers to harness innovation through the AI ecosystem, including the newest foundational models and generative experiences,” said Graham Sheldon, Chief Product Officer at UiPath. “Customers want a single platform that enables end-to-end business process transformation. Developers, IT professionals, and business users can use AI responsibly with UiPath’s built-in enterprise-grade security, governance, and compliance. The release of new technologies and capabilities in our platform further accelerates how the C-level leaders can transform their businesses with automation.”
