Persistent–UiPath: Shaping the Future of Automation Together
Automation has come a long way. What once focused on boosting back-office efficiency has now become a strategic driver for business transformation. Today, the partnership between Persistent and UiPath is helping organizations rethink what’s possible, enabling teams to orchestrate complex processes, make smarter decisions, and continuously improve how work gets done.
From RPA to Agentic AI: The Journey
Automation began with Robotic Process Automation (RPA), which optimized high-volume, repetitive tasks. As business needs expanded, RPA was enhanced with AI to create Intelligent Automation. Now, Agentic Process Automation is taking center stage, powered by Agentic AI and Generative AI. This shift isn’t just about improving efficiency; it’s about coordinating agents, bots, and humans to deliver measurable ROI and deliver better experiences across the enterprise.
UiPath’s Transformation: Beyond Rules-Based Automation
UiPath’s evolution reflects the changing demands of enterprise automation. Moving from rules-based task automation to Hyper-automation, UiPath expanded its capabilities with Intelligent Xtraction and Processing, Process Intelligence, and Conversational AI. The most significant advancement comes with Agentic Process Automation, enabling entire workflows to be orchestrated with Agentic AI and Generative AI.
The launch of Maestro, Agentic IDP, and new advanced connectors at Fusion 2025 shows UiPath’s commitment to delivering not just automation but intelligent decision-making, adaptability, and seamless collaboration between bots, agents, and humans.
Persistent’s Intelligent Business Automation Framework
Persistent’s Intelligent Business Automation Framework (PiBAF) complements UiPath’s capabilities across four pillars: Discover, Digitize, Orchestrate, and Automate. This holistic approach delivers both traditional ROI: cost, time, and productivity gains, and Return on Experience (ROE), improving customer, employee, and partner experiences.
As a UiPath partner for over six years and recently recognized as a Fast Track Partner for Agentic AI, Persistent brings a 360° partnership model: joint go-to-market strategies, co-hosted events, product engineering, and strong internal adoption of UiPath solutions.
Key Insights from UiPath Fusion 2025
Fusion 2025 highlighted the rise of agentic automation and the acceleration of enterprise ROI. Keynotes from UiPath leadership emphasized the shift from task-based automation to orchestrated systems, where AI agents, robots, and humans work together.
Maestro enables collaborative workflow design, auditability, and adaptive governance. Agentic IDP introduces capabilities like automatic schema generation and validation agents, significantly reducing manual review and boosting efficiency.
Another major theme was flexibility. Whether teams prefer low-code or pro-code approaches, UiPath provides multiple paths for designing, deploying, and scaling agents based on an organization’s needs and technical maturity.
Industry-specific solutions, such as loan origination in financial services, claims processing in healthcare, and inventory management in retail, demonstrated substantial improvements in throughput and experience. Real-world case studies validated how these innovations deliver tangible impact. With pre-packaged offerings built using Maestro for Case Management and Process Apps, Robots, Agents, Integration Services, and more, organizations can accelerate adoption without relying on large internal development teams.
Conclusion: The Agentic Future
Fusion 2025 made one thing clear: the future of enterprise automation is Agentic. Organizations must adapt to this new paradigm to stay competitive. Persistent and UiPath are committed to helping enterprises navigate this shift, unlocking new value, driving measurable outcomes, and shaping the future of automation.
