Agentic Index
Uipath vs Workato (2026)
Both automate work across systems and they start from opposite plumbing, at 13.5 and 12 of 14.
UiPath comes from robotic process automation, where the agent operates the screen when there is no other way in, plus Maestro orchestration and the AI Trust Layer. Workato is an integration platform with agents for automations like human resources and directory onboarding, estimated around ten thousand a year. If your systems expose APIs, Workato is far cheaper and cleaner; if they do not, no amount of integration tooling helps and you need something that can drive a screen.
Choose Uipath if
- Documented coverage is the deepest in the index and your systems do not all have APIs.
- Robots and agents orchestrated together is the estate you are managing.
- Governance over agent and robot actions is a formal requirement.
Choose Workato if
- Your systems expose APIs, which makes screen automation unnecessary overhead.
- Roughly ten thousand a year is a fraction of an automation platform contract.
- Onboarding and similar cross system workflows are the specific need.
