UiPath announced a next-generation platform for agentic automation that unifies AI agents, robots and people, with UiPath Maestro for end-to-end orchestration reaching general availability, the company said on 30 April 2025.
RPA vendors are repositioning around agents that can plan across systems while robots and humans stay in the loop. Automation leaders still need governance on tool use, identity and change control.
UiPath cited Agent Builder, third-party agent integrations, IXP and UI Agent for computer use alongside Maestro. The pitch is governed, scalable agentic workflows on the existing automation estate.
Automation owners should demand kill-switches and audit samples on production processes — before treating any agentic automation launch as a completed platform migration.
