Questions about robotic process automation (RPA)

What is robotic process automation (RPA)?

Software “bots” that mimic the clicks and keystrokes a person makes in business applications, automating repetitive, rules-based work like data entry and report downloads.

How is AI changing robotic process automation (RPA)?

RPA is merging with AI: document understanding handles messy inputs, and agentic automation lets bots cope with the screens and exceptions that used to break them.

Should we buy robotic process automation (RPA) or have it built?

For a small business, an API integration or AI workflow is usually cheaper and sturdier than RPA. We use bots only where nothing else can reach.
