History

2021: Automation Anywhere Bought FortressIQ

In mid-December 2021, Automation Anywhere bought competitor FortressIQ. The company did not disclose the financial terms of the transaction.

FortressIQ focuses on simplifying tasks through so-called "process discovery," which is an important step in many RPA projects. The company's technology can help Automation Anywhere accelerate the implementation of RPA for customers.

Automation Anywhere acquired FortressIQ

San Francisco-based FortressIQ has developed a platform that promises to reduce the time required for process discovery initiatives by up to 90%. As a result, according to the company, customers can implement ideas to optimize business operations in weeks, not months.

The FortressIQ platform, called Virtual Process Analyst, uses AI to monitor how employees interact with the company's internal applications. The platform then analyzes the collected data to get an idea of ​ ​ the business processes of the organization. According to the FortressIQ, this data can be used to identify tasks that could be performed more efficiently using RPA bots.^[1]
