The TL;DR
UIPath helps people automate rote, repetitive manual tasks like updating spreadsheets, creating documents, and sending emails.
- Work that we do tends to be repetitive and manual – pretty much anything with a process like forms, compliance, etc.
- Traditional approaches to automation use exposed APIs from software to hack together scripts – but many apps don’t have those APIs available
- UIPath literally records the work you do (click here, scroll there) and then lets you replay it, automatically, whenever you want
- You can also build basic forms, workflows based on conditions, make HTTP requests – pretty much anything
UIPath is definitely enterprise-first (just check out their website), and it's working – they went public in April 2021. To give you an idea of how enterprise-focused they are: as of January 2025, just 317 customers paying $1 million+ annually generated 51% of their total revenue [1] From UIPath's most recent 10-K filing: As of January 31, 2025, we had 2,292 customers with ARR of $100 thousand or more and 317 customers with ARR of $1 million or more, which accounted for approximately 87% and 51% of our revenue, respectively, for the period then ended..
