Krista makes it human.
What is intelligent automation?
Intelligent Automation (IA) combines artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and natural language processing (NLP) with process automation (RPA) to automate complex end-to-end business processes and workflows.
IA augments and enhances RPA by adding intelligent capabilities that automate decision-making, exception handling, and other complex processes that are difficult to automate with traditional RPA technology.
RPA provides value but limits your transformation
Every technology has its pros and cons. RPA is no exception. While it is true that RPA bots save time when performing repetitive tasks, they also have technical limitations.
Unattended bots require restarts and handholding
Unattended RPA bots promise to work on their own, hence the name. However in practice, few processes remain static which means if anything changes—no matter how small- bots require manual restarting/re-programming.
UI is brittle and breaks bots
One of the biggest technical challenges in RPA has to do with user interfaces (UIs). UIs are constantly changing as new features get added and changes are made. These changes generate errors and other problems for robotic processes.
High development and maintenance costs
Automation solutions focused exclusively on RPA are complex to develop and implement, leading many companies into lengthy Software Development Life Cycles (SDLCs). One of the most challenging aspects is maintaining scripts used in bots since every change requires an experienced programmer.
Bots focus on task automation
RPA solutions are designed to automate repetitive tasks, not processes. Tasks are individual actions that make up a process. As a result, RPA falls short when it comes to automating complex business processes that typically involve multiple tasks and require intelligent decision making.
Intelligent Automation is Smarter and More Nimble
Automation has significantly improved throughout the Information Age. Technologies like business process management (BPM), robotic process automation, Low-code app development platforms (LCAP), conversational AI, and other cognitive technologies have gained wide acceptance. However, these technologies still operate in informational silos and lack orchestration for more complex tasks.
The need to orchestrate complex tasks across multiple teams, people, legacy systems, SaaS, and AI, gave rise to intelligent automation. Advancements in machine learning, natural language processing, and artificial intelligence paved the way to personify systems and provide solutions that your people understand.
Intelligent Automation Benefits
Intelligent Automation opens the door to enhanced business process management and provides many benefits across several industries.
Reduces Costs
IA automates processes more efficiently because it handles unstructured data, reduces errors, and constantly learns to optimize your operations.
Increases Efficiency
IA processes millions of documents quickly, spots and resolves issues within each, and makes improvement recommendations.
Improves Customer Experience
Advanced natural language understanding provides personalized customer interactions, leading to best-in-class customer services and satisfaction.
Empowers Employees
IA requires no special technical skills, making it the ideal application for end-users.
Enables Better Decision-Making
Machine learning gathers, organizes, tracks, analyzes, and stores valuable data, enabling business leaders to make better decisions.
Ensures Compliance
IA automates each business process and documents it for compliance, regulatory statutes, industry standards, and best practice requirements.

Security Incident Management
Intelligent Automation enables an overextended security team to protect the organization more efficiently. Krista connects and orchestrates disparate security tools and feeds to centralize communication. Aggregating disparate user interfaces reduces the administration burden and creates time for your security analysts to perform more meaningful work.
Salesforce CRM Automation
Intelligent automation integrates your helpdesk and CRM apps to become provide intelligent virtual agents for your support and sales personnel. IA removes confusing interfaces and provides automation technologies allowing your agents to better serve customers.
Development & Operations (DevOps)
IA connects your existing DevOps automation tools and helps you orchestrate people, processes, and technology. IA enables project sponsors, management, development, security, compliance, and operations teams to remove project delays associated with manual steps.
Document Understanding
Intelligent automation scans documents, connects to data sources, and uncovers information to automate end-to-end processes involving people and applications to optimize business outcomes and augment human intelligence. The automation extracts attribute document attributes using proprietary machine learning models and NLP for data analysis.
Issue Resolution
IA can connect with your email servers, internal apps, data sources, ticketing systems, and AI to read attributes from incoming email messages using proprietary ML models and NLP. Automating this process across several business functions can provide intelligent responses to existing processes and automate the next best action based on identified attributes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Intelligent automation combines artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and process automation to create automated business processes and workflows. The automated workflows remove barriers by automatically replicating mundane tasks or providing information from disparate systems so your employees can make more informed business decisions.
Intelligent automation enables companies to process and manipulate large datasets to gain capabilities beyond normal human abilities. Enterprises use intelligent automation to perform document processing, automated customer and employee responses, software delivery, and executive reporting to support AI-led decision-making and business processes.
RPA typically focuses on automating repetitive tasks employees process as part of their usual jobs. Intelligent automation leverages artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), natural language processing (NLP), and data to help make decisions and automate tasks that employees don’t usually execute in an application user interface.
Intelligent automation combines artificial intelligence (AI) and process automation to support data-based decision-making across multiple teams, systems, or business units. Intelligent automation monitors and predicts business outcomes recommends process improvements and automates repetitive tasks. Intelligent automation augments human abilities by allowing employees to draw insights from data that would be otherwise unavailable or unrecognizable.
