Central Robot Orchestration
Combine UI and API automation, manage and control robots centrally
Combine UI and API automation—you can have multiple
UI and API tasks in the same RPA workflow
One robot can control the action of another robot
Design workflow logic controls for decision-making,
parallel loops, and error handling

Scalable Robots
Orchestrators and workers
Scale up or down as
workloads change
A worker-queue architecture
manages a pool of resources
and hands off requests to
available robots.
Robots have configured
skills that enable them to
run requests.
Robots activate only when
work is assigned to them.
