Automation Anywhere

Application

Automation Co-PilotApplication

A conversational generative-AI assistant embedded inside business applications such as SAP, Workday and Salesforce that turns natural-language requests into built and deployed automations, using the Process Reasoning Engine for business context.

Document AutomationApplication

Intelligent document processing that uses natural language processing, computer vision and generative AI to classify, extract and validate data from structured, semi-structured and unstructured documents including handwriting, barcodes and free-form text.

Process DiscoveryApplication

Records how work is actually done on employees' screens with computer vision, uses AI to uncover every process variation and map it, redacts personal data through a Privacy Enhanced Gateway, and ranks which processes to automate next. Part of the Agentic Process Automation Platform.

Agent platform

AI Agent StudioAgent platform

A low-code workspace for building, testing and governing goal-driven AI agents that connect to third-party foundation models from AWS, Google Cloud, Azure OpenAI and OpenAI, with built-in AI Guardrails for data masking and toxicity checks.

Developer tool

Automation Anywhere CodeDeveloper tool

A generative automation builder that takes intent from plain language, SOPs, BPMN diagrams, screenshots or voice, produces a structured plan for review, then generates agents, API tasks, processes, forms and bots as governed production automations.

Automator AIDeveloper tool

A set of generative-AI tools for the people who build automations on Automation Anywhere's platform: Autopilot turns process documents into ready-to-deploy automations, Co-Pilot for Automators builds steps from natural-language prompts, and Generative Recorder adds a GenAI fallback so workflows keep running when a screen changes. Part of the Agentic Process Automation Platform.

Process SimulationDeveloper tool

A test environment that runs an end-to-end workflow before it goes live: simulation mode generates test data and models each step's output without touching live systems, AI proposes extra scenarios and edge cases across APIs, bots, agents and human steps, and the results point at gaps and broken branches to fix. Part of the Agentic Process Automation Platform.

Platform

Agentic Process Automation PlatformPlatform

The vendor's umbrella platform combining goal-driven AI agents, RPA, APIs and human-in-the-loop review to orchestrate enterprise workflows; sold as licensable modules including AI Agent Studio, Automation Co-Pilot, Automator AI, Document Automation, Process Discovery, Process Reasoning Engine and the Mozart Orchestrator, each recorded separately.

Mozart OrchestratorPlatform

Coordinates autonomous AI agents across bots, systems, data and human touchpoints with goal-driven, self-healing workflow execution.

Pegasystems

Application

Pega Customer Decision HubApplication

Applies real-time predictive AI and event processing to running workflows to predict and prevent SLA breaches, address service delays proactively, and route work more effectively.

Agent platform

Pega Agentic Process FabricAgent platform

An orchestration layer that registers AI agents, workflows and data from Pega and third-party systems into a unified directory and routes user requests to the right agent or workflow, with support for MCP and agent-to-agent communication.

Developer tool

Pega BlueprintDeveloper tool

An AI-powered application design tool that analyzes existing systems and documentation to generate build-ready workflow applications that can be imported into Pega Platform.

Platform

Pega PlatformPlatform

Pega's platform for orchestrating agents, people and systems on the same work: Blueprint generates the workflow design, Pega GenAI runs inside it, and the decisioning engine the company has sold for four decades is what the agents act on.

No counterpart

Automation Anywhere sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Pegasystems yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.

Infrastructure service

EnterpriseClawInfrastructure service

A governance and runtime layer that deploys, manages and secures AI agents from any framework - including OpenClaw, Claude Code, LangChain, CrewAI and custom Python - locally behind the enterprise firewall using existing bot runner controls, credentials, audit trails and AI guardrails.

Process Reasoning EngineInfrastructure service
