What is Robotic Process Automation

• RPA is a software technique that allows you to
  easily create, deploy and manage software robots
  that can mimic human movements and work with
  digital systems and software. Software robots can
  read what's displayed on a screen and type the
  correct keystrokes. They can also traverse
  systems and locate and retrieve data and perform
  a variety predefined tasks. Software robots can,
  however, do the job faster and more accurately
  than humans without needing to get up or stretch.

Business Benefits of Robotic Process Automation

• Robotic process automation makes organizations
  more profitable, flexible, and responsive.
  Robotic process automation also improves employee
  happiness and engagement by eliminating
  repetitive chores from their day.
• RPA is not intrusive and can be used quickly to
  accelerate digital transformation. It is also
  useful for automating old systems without APIs,
  virtual desktop infrastructures or database
  access.

Why is RPA Transformative?

• RPA technology is changing the way people work
  around the world.
• Software robots can perform mundane tasks that
  are less important than human beings. They can
  login to applications and systems, move files and
  directories, extract, copy and insert data, fill
  out forms and run regular reports and analyses.
  Robots with high cognitive abilities can also
  perform cognitive tasks like reading and
  understanding language and participating in
  conversations. They can also understand
  unstructured data and make difficult judgments by
  using advanced machine learning models.

Where can RPA be used?

• Robotic process automation has been proven to be
  a great tool for increasing efficiency and
  reducing repetitive monotony in a variety of
  industries and business processes. RPA is used in
  a variety of areas including finance, compliance,
  legal and customer service. It has also been
  implemented by companies from a range of
  industries, such as manufacturing, healthcare,
  retail, public sector, and financial services.
• RPA's broad application has made it a popular
  choice. Automation is a great candidate for
  almost every high-volume, repeatable,
  business-rules driven, high-volume process.

Is RPA the same as artificial intelligence (AI)?

• RPA and AI are not the same thing. Combining RPA
  and AI can open up new opportunities for
  businesses around the globe. RPA technology
  allows RPA robots to use advanced AI skills such
  as machine learning models and natural language
  processing (NLP), character recognition and
  picture recognition, among others. These AI
  capabilities will greatly improve the robot's
  ability to perform cognitive tasks.
• Recognizing semi-structured and unstructured
  data in documents
• Screen visualization (including virtual
  desktops).
• Understanding and continuing discussions and
  chit-chats
• RPA applications such as process mining make it
  possible to statistically identify a broad range
  of automation opportunities, and create a solid
  automation pipeline.
