   Introduction to UiPath

About UiPath:

• UiPath is a global software company that develops a platform for Robotic Process

Automation (RPA). It was founded, in 2005 in Bucharest, Romania. UiPath’s focus on

building the world’s best RPA software has made them the world’s leading RPA software

company. UiPath has its offices across 40+ countries.

• Following its acquisition of ‘ProcessGold’ and ‘StepShot’ in 2019, and ‘Cloud Elements’ in

2021, UiPath has become the first vendor of scale to bring together both process mining and

Robotic Process Automation to offer an end-to-end platform for Hyperautomation.

• UiPath has 7,500+ customers globally.

• It debuted in the stock market with one of the largest US software IPOs in history.

  UiPath Methodology and Products

Methodology and Components of UiPath Platform are:

• Discover: Discover automation opportunities powered by AI and your people.

Complementary solutions that work together to deliver complete process understanding.

• Automation Hub: It is an online application to share your automation ideas and

turn them into real automation. You can also look at the automation ideas posted

by others in your organization.

• Task Capture: It is a window application to help you capture your automation

requirements. Export the process as PDDs or XAML files so your business analysts

and developers can start building right away.

• Process Mining: UiPath Process Mining AppOne is the ready-to-use standard

online application for gaining insights on processes and carrying out root-cause

analysis and monitoring. With process mining, you can continuously optimize end

to end processes with data from your applications.

Task Mining: With Task Mining, you can analyze the work people do to find

everyday, repetitive tasks to automate. Task Mining automatically identifies and

aggregates process workflows, then applies AI to map tasks to automation

opportunities. That's how you build a high-value automation pipeline across the

enterprise.

• Build: Build super-smart, robust robots to automate the discovered automation

opportunities in the discovery stage.

StudioX: For business users to automate simple, everyday tasks for themselves with StudioX.

• Studio: For power developers to get a rich development environment with Studio or Studio Pro.

• Studio Pro: Studio Pro supports the creation of specialized test cases for automated application testing. In StudioPro, individual test automation projects can be created to verify data.

• Document Understanding: It helps your robots understand documents to extract, interpret, and process data for you, even from PDFs, images, handwriting, and scanned documents.

• Marketplace: It contains pre-built automation components and templates. Automation makes life easier. The marketplace makes automation easier.

Manage: It helps manage your automation robots productively which you have built.

• Orchestrator: Orchestrator is the heart of your automation management. It gives you the power to provision, deploy, trigger, monitor, measure, track, and ensure every robot's security in your organization. So now you can manage everything from your browser or your mobile device.

• AI Fabric: It helps you orchestrate all moving pieces of AI: deploy, consume, manage, and improve machine learning models. Insert AI into your business processes with drag-and-drop ease. No data science background is required.

• Test Suite: Automate and centralize testing to ensure every automation and application's quality before they go live. Now you'll be able to launch resilient robots and high-quality software without testing your patience.

• Data Service: Ditch the data silos, the security concerns, and one-off data schemas. And give developers simple, easy, productive access to the data, variables, and tools they need across the entire UiPath Platform.

Insights: UiPath Insights is an RPA analytics solution that tracks, measures, and forecasts the performance of your entire automation program so you can propel your automation journey to the next level.

• Run: Whatever process you want to automate, software robots are there to get things done. Whichever you pick, you can be sure they'll be very high performers and integrate into your environment.

• Attended and Unattended Robots: UiPath software robots are intelligent, reliable, flexible, and eager to take on a vast range of tedious tasks. They're also easy to build and manage, so you can launch an entire robot workforce to deliver efficiencies, higher performance, and increased ROI quickly.

• Test Robots: Test robots are to ensure the quality of every automation and application before they go live.

• Engage: UiPath offers many ways for people to engage with robots. Say, when robots bring them approvals, exceptions, or escalations.

• Apps: Unleash the full potential of your automation by giving them an intuitive, user-friendly interface. Connect with all your apps and systems, even if they don't have APIs. Build apps in a snap, deploy with a click, with no coding.

• Assistant: UiPath Assistant is a desktop launchpad for automation. It gives everyday individuals easy access to selected automation that helps them with their day-to-day tasks. It lets automation leaders manage, distribute, and govern automation centrally. And it lifts automation impact to new heights across the entire enterprise.

Action Center: When automation includes decisions that a human should make like approvals, escalations, and exceptions, UiPath Action Center makes it easy and efficient to hand off the process from robot to human. And back again.

• Chatbots: With our chatbot capability, your customers and employees can now trigger robots to do things (like checking order status or posting data in your CRM) through chatbots, social messaging apps, or even voice. In plain language. Who knew robots could be such brilliant conversationalists?

• Measure: Gain insights into the performance of a single robot, ROI of your entire program, and anything in between, with analytics from Insights. Not only do you know how you're doing, but you know where to focus on boosting performance even higher.
