Automation Anywhere announced a major expansion of its Agentic Process Automation (APA) system at Imagine 2025, introducing the industry’s first Process Reasoning Engine (PRE). This advancement, combined with new AI agents and agentic orchestration, drives mission-critical enterprise automation, moving closer to artificial general intelligence for work.
Automation Anywhere launches Process Reasoning Engine for APA system.
PRE enables AI agents to plan, act, and learn for enterprise outcomes.
Introduces Enterprise UI Agents for adaptive interface automation.
Reasoning AI Agents execute goal-driven tasks autonomously.
Agentic orchestration integrates AI, bots, and human workflows.
Enhances efficiency by 3x and resiliency by 60% in automation.
The Process Reasoning Engine (PRE) is a groundbreaking AI engine that understands enterprise context and dynamically drives work to achieve business goals. Unlike traditional automation or general-purpose large language models, PRE powers AI agents with generative automation, self-healing capabilities, and advanced document processing. It delivers 3x higher efficiency in building end-to-end automation and 60% greater resiliency, enabling enterprises to automate complex processes across industries like banking, healthcare, and manufacturing.
Automation Anywhere’s Enterprise UI Agents are adaptive “computer use” AI agents that interact with web-based enterprise applications with human-like understanding. These agents execute multi-step tasks across dynamic interfaces, enabling automation for high-value use cases like website tracking, price monitoring, and identity verification. For example, Alight streamlined its Open Enrollment testing process, reducing timeframes significantly. “By implementing Automation Anywhere's Adaptive Enterprise UI Agents, we now streamline the process through AI-powered testing,” said Rahul Patet, Agentic AI-based Automation Leader at Alight.
The APA system introduces Reasoning AI Agents that autonomously plan, execute, and learn to achieve specified goals. These agents handle dynamic business processes, such as accounts payable or supplier onboarding, with intelligent decision-making. By combining cognitive AI with deterministic automation, they enable enterprises to automate up to 80% of operations, accelerating measurable outcomes.
The APA system’s orchestration engine integrates AI agents, RPA bots, APIs, documents, and human interactions for long-running, mission-critical processes. Supporting interoperability standards like GCP’s Agent-to-Agent protocol and Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol, it connects with platforms like AWS Bedrock and Microsoft CoPilot. This ensures scalable, secure coordination across diverse ecosystems, future-proofing enterprise automation strategies.
Automation Anywhere prioritizes enterprise-grade security and governance in its APA system. Features like PII data masking, AI guardrails, and real-time observability ensure responsible scaling. Customer data is never used to train models, reinforcing privacy. “What Automation Anywhere is doing with PRE and APA is a big moment for enterprise automation efficiency,” said Maureen Fleming, Program VP at IDC, highlighting its deterministic approach to agentic capabilities.
The APA system, powered by PRE, marks a significant step toward autonomous enterprises. By combining intelligent AI agents with secure orchestration, Automation Anywhere enables organizations to automate mission-critical workflows with unprecedented speed and efficiency, laying the foundation for future AI-driven work.
Automation Anywhere is the leader in Agentic Process Automation (APA) and is guided by its vision to fuel the future of work by unleashing human potential through automation.
