Recognized as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant by our site
In the rapidly evolving world of automation, Automation Anywhere's Agentic Process Automation (APA) system has once again been recognised as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Robotic Process Automation (RPA) for the seventh consecutive year.
The APA system, known for its innovative features and capabilities, is making waves in the industry with its latest innovations. These include the Process Reasoning Engine (PRE), an intelligent AI engine designed to understand enterprise context and drive dynamic outcomes, and Enterprise UI Agents, adaptive AI agents that can interact with enterprise software dynamically.
The PRE offers capabilities like generative automation, self-healing automation, and advanced document processing, delivering 3x faster end-to-end automation development and 60% greater resiliency across workflows compared to standalone Language Models (LLMs) and traditional automation.
Enterprise UI Agents, on the other hand, understand context, adapt in real-time, and execute complex, multi-step tasks, providing automation at a level of flexibility and speed not possible with traditional approaches.
Other key features of the APA system include low-code tools and APIs, real-time collaboration features, an Agentic Solutions Workspace, and a focus on scalability and resiliency. The Agentic Solutions Workspace allows business users to interact with AI agents through natural language, simplifying the initiation, management, and scaling of automation processes without requiring deep technical expertise.
The APA system's focus on intelligent orchestration, rather than just task-based automation, has been instrumental in solving complex workflows with speed and scale. This shift towards intelligent automation has been crucial in maintaining Automation Anywhere's leadership position in the RPA market.
Notable companies such as Petrobras, Merck, and SoftBank have reaped the benefits of Automation Anywhere's solutions, with Petrobras saving over $1 billion, Merck saving 150,000 hours annually, and SoftBank reducing process times by 85%.
The Gartner Magic Quadrant report for Robotic Process Automation, authored by Arthur Villa, Sachin Joshi, Saikat Ray, and Melanie Alexander, was published in June 2025. The report provides insights into the automation landscape and the reasons for Automation Anywhere's continued recognition as a Leader.
