At the FORWARD VI event, UiPath introduced the latest AI capability - Autopilot - a feature that combines generative AI, specialized AI, and automation to enable users to quickly automate tasks using natural language, making work automation more accessible to everyone. Following its previous advancements in AI-powered automation and “Project Wingman,” the Autopilot is the next step in its automation revolution.
UiPath Autopilot can convert paper documents into automation-driven applications with just one click, helping enterprises achieve digital transformation. The AI enhancements in the UiPath Business Automation Platform unveil previously undiscovered automation and process improvement opportunities. Moreover, they ensure the streamlined creation of automated processes, all supported by robust enterprise-level capabilities.
“By taking a user’s words, screenshots, or PDFs from paper documents as an input, Autopilot for Apps can create a robust automation workflow or interfaces for automations. This enables ‘one-click digital transformation’ for organizations by taking automated action. UiPath can operationalize the transformative force of AI through automation, seamlessly integrating intelligence into everyday operations, automating all knowledge work, upleveling employees, and revolutionizing entire industries with AI at work. And importantly, the UiPath AI Trust Layer will allow customers to use these new AI capabilities with confidence knowing their data is secure,” said Graham Sheldon, Chief Product Officer at UiPath.
