SAN JOSE, Calif., Dec. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --  Automation Anywhere, the leader in AI-powered automation, announced its fifth consecutive non-GAAP profitable quarter and increased margins. Following the unprecedented surge in customer demand driving 2x growth in AI Agent deals in Q3, the company has affirmed its place as #1 in Agentic Process Automation. Automation Anywhere was first to market, first to deploy at scale, and first to create business specific AI Agent solutions for customers to deploy across any vertical.

"Generative AI began with simple chat interactions and personal productivity tools, but enterprises are now realizing its true potential lies in enterprise agents that span multiple vendors, driving dramatic outcomes and reshaping IT investments toward AI-led innovation," said Mihir Shukla, CEO and Co-Founder, Automation Anywhere. "It showcases the transformative power of Agentic Process Automation to empower businesses, drive competitive advantage, and redefine what's possible in our rapidly evolving world.

Automation Anywhere's AI Agent launch in June 2024 created the new category of Agentic Process Automation, which the company continues to lead, driving measurable impact for enterprises globally. Additionally, this quarter, more than 70 percent of new and upsell bookings were driven by AI Platform Customers. As adoption scales across industries such as financial services, healthcare, and manufacturing, Automation Anywhere's Agentic Process Automation solutions will continue to transform business workflows, helping organizations achieve immediate efficiency gains and position themselves for sustained growth in the AI-driven future.

Automation Anywhere saw higher than anticipated newer customer interest for conversational automation powered by Amazon Q during the third quarter. With this partnership, customers are eliminating operational bottlenecks and transforming workflows into secure, agile processes that deliver measurable business outcomes.

"We're excited to see AWS and Automation Anywhere bring AI-powered services to enterprise process automation, blending knowledge with LLM models to automate complex workflows," said Rahul Patet, Automation Leader at Alight, a leading cloud-based provider of integrated digital human capital and business solutions.
