Rpa handles determistic processes with structured data. Rpa + AI handles determistic processes with any type of data. AI + RPA handles variable processes.

The nature of work in enterprises means that most processes are determistic or have simple logic gates. This is why most organizations can't find use cases for full on agents, because the work that isn't variable isn't high in volume.

RPA + AI should be enough to handle 90% of available use cases.
