UiPath
Also known as: UiPath Platform, Maestro, Autopilot, Agent Builder, PATH
Public agentic automation platform orchestrating AI agents, robots, and people end to end, with Maestro orchestration, Agent Builder, Autopilot, self healing, and the AI Trust Layer for governance.
UiPath is a public company (NYSE: PATH) that evolved from an RPA pioneer into a platform for agentic automation, orchestrating AI agents, robots, and people across end to end business processes. UiPath Maestro is the orchestration layer, modeling long running processes with BPMN 2.0 and coordinating UiPath agents, third party agents, robots, and humans across multisystem workflows such as claims, loans, invoices, and payroll. Agent Builder lets enterprises create, customize, and deploy AI agents in a low code environment or from prebuilt templates for complex processes like invoice dispute resolution.
Autopilot is assistive AI built across Studio, Maestro, Test Manager, and Orchestrator that turns natural language into workflows, agents, schemas, and tests, monitors job health, and diagnoses failures with selector healing. A Healing Agent automatically adapts automations when UI interfaces change, and agentic testing brings self healing test automation across Salesforce, SAP, Oracle, and 195 plus applications. The AI Trust Layer governs model usage with audit trails, data masking, content moderation for PII, controlled agency guardrails, and Unified Audit 2.0, and Autopilot supports GPT, Gemini, Claude, and any compatible model on the customer's cloud or own infrastructure.
Managed RAG, document understanding, and IXP agentic document processing round out the platform. UiPath serves large enterprises across banking, insurance, healthcare, public sector, and manufacturing, with customers including Uber, EY, Canon, Xerox, and Generali, and is deployable in cloud, self hosted, on premises, or hybrid.

Deployment options
Integrations
Thousands of enterprise application integrations via the UiPath ecosystem and Integration Service; prebuilt connectors and a Connector Builder; agentic testing across Salesforce, SAP, Oracle, and 195+ applications; UiPath for Coding Agents governs third party agents including Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor; CrowdStrike endpoint protection for joint customers.
In practice
A bank models a loan process in Maestro with BPMN, orchestrating an Agent Builder agent, UiPath robots, and human approvals across multiple systems end to end
When a target application's UI changes, the Healing Agent adapts the automation automatically so the process keeps running without a maintenance ticket
A developer uses Autopilot in Studio to turn a plain language description into a working automation, then validates it with self healing agentic tests across SAP and Salesforce

Pricing

consumption and role (robots, agents, platform units)
What is public
The licensing structure (Automation Cloud versus Automation Suite, consumption and role based, Autopilot included, free tier to start) is public; dollar figures are not centrally listed.
Billing mechanics
Platform subscription with consumption and role based licensing across Automation Cloud (SaaS) and Automation Suite (self hosted). Autopilot bundled into the platform license; agents, robots, and document processing metered.
Cost watchouts
Enterprise costs scale with unattended and attended robots, agent consumption, document processing volume (IXP), and AI unit usage; self hosted Automation Suite shifts infrastructure cost to the customer.
Variable cost rationale
Consumption based licensing across robots, agents, AI units, and document processing means cost scales directly with automation volume, and large enterprise programs span thousands of robots, so the workload dominates the bill.
Additional watchouts
Enterprise automation programs accrue cost across robots, agents, and AI units; model a full deployment rather than a single license.
Sales call required
Yes — required for paid access
Free / trial
Free Automation Cloud community tier and free training; Autopilot for everyone announced free to start
Lowest paid plan
Community/free tier to start; paid tiers quoted by sales
Key ambiguities
As a public company with complex enterprise licensing, list prices for robots, agents, and platform units are not centrally published; quotes are customized.
Missing data
List prices for robots, agents, AI units, and document processing; tier boundaries.
