Altilia vs Automation Anywhere (2026)

Pre-built connectors and an API-first architecture let AI assistants and robots be embedded across the customer's tech stack, from legacy systems to modern cloud applications, and agents take action on data. No individual connector, integration catalog or connector count is named for any application class. The platform is distributed through the Microsoft commercial marketplace. Documents and data are ingested from any source or format, including PDFs, emails, handwritten notes, scanned images and legacy databases.

Agents and bots do the work inside the customer's systems. The platform combines goal-based AI agents, RPA, APIs and human expertise, connects to ERPs and CRMs through pre-built connectors and open APIs, and runs agentic AI over existing RPA and BPM systems to handle exceptions and unstructured data.

AI Agent Studio agents orchestrate across bots, APIs, documents and other agents in real time, each with assigned tool access, and the Control Room reference includes a Device API and work item queue endpoints. Automation Anywhere does not say which ERPs and CRMs are covered and gives no connector list.

Agent workflows are designed with visual scripting, automating and sequencing actions and connecting data sources with fine-tuned models, chains and processing functions, alongside skills, which are process orchestration tasks built in the low-code interface.

The platform provides governable agentic orchestration and ontology-driven workflows that coordinate agents across departments, with agents shipping as assistants or autonomous robots within the same workflow model. Independent analysts describe the agents-and-skills combination as providing robotic process automation capabilities. No branching, looping, conditional or parallel control-flow construct is named, and no failure or retry behavior is described.

The platform orchestrates goal-based AI agents, RPA, APIs and human expertise in one unified platform. Its goal-driven AI agents plan, execute and self-heal without manual direction, and agentic AI sits over existing RPA and BPM to handle exceptions and unstructured data that traditional bots cannot.

In AI Agent Studio, agents handle reasoning and human in the loop steps and orchestrate across bots, APIs, documents and other agents in real time, and customers place agents within end-to-end workflows using drag-and-drop tools with AI-powered next action suggestions. The Mozart Orchestrator and Automation Workspace are the named orchestration products. Agent steps are composed with deterministic bots and APIs in one workflow, and self healing covers retries. How branching and versioning work is not described.

Event triggers can be added and linked to a Bot Runner, and a Trigger API can also create and delete them, with trigger types including email, file and window triggers. Control Room Bot Scheduler API endpoints (/v2/schedule/automations) and an Automations API create, update, delete and return details on scheduled automations. Through Automation Co-Pilot, people can also start multi step agentic workflows in natural language inside their existing apps.

The Knowledge Graph is the platform's core component, aggregating and organizing all company information and unifying structured, unstructured and physical document sources into a single coherent database. A hybrid neuro-symbolic architecture combines large and small language models with the graph and is described as GraphRAG with traversal reasoning.

Ingestion covers any source or format, including long complex documents, standardized forms, scanned images, handwritten notes, emails and legacy databases, transformed into semantic objects. Users interrogate the knowledge base in natural language and receive fact-based answers with source attribution, and RAG techniques retrieve and fine-tune LLMs and SLMs against enterprise knowledge. Accuracy above ninety-five percent on domain-specific tasks is vendor-reported.

In a review and validation stage, people review and validate data classifications, extractions and AI-generated answers, and the feedback of human experts is integrated to enhance accuracy and control at key stages, with reviewed corrections feeding continuous learning. Agents ship in two forms, assistants that support human decision-making and robots that automate processes autonomously, so the autonomy level is a design-time choice. No confidence threshold routing uncertain items to review, action allowlist, or scope or spend limit is described.

Automation Anywhere holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and GDPR certifications, and its Trust Center lists ISO 27001, SOC, HIPAA compliance, HITRUST certification, ISO 9001, ISO 42001, ISO 22301 and Cyber Essentials, with vendor penetration test, Veracode and Black Duck reports available on request.

Access is protected by RBAC (role based access control), end to end encryption and comprehensive audit trails, with security embedded at the infrastructure, data and agent levels. AI Agent Studio gives each agent a specific role, goal and tool access and limits models to an approved list, so access is controlled at user, tool and model level. The Trust Center lists SOC without a type, and the platform page supplies Type II.

SaaS, private cloud and on-premises deployment are offered, which Altilia calls deployment sovereignty, with domain-tuned small and large language models served locally so inference runs inside the deployment rather than being sent to a hosted provider.

Data is kept within the customer's secure infrastructure, and customers retain ownership of data, models and assets. The company positions itself as a sovereign European platform competing with US hyperscalers.

No region selection within the SaaS offering, installation requirement, or statement of which components run customer-side in the on-premises mode is described.
