A lot of commenters are focusing on the RPA part, but what seems to be more novel (to me at least) is the passive discovery of what could be automated with RPA.

A lot of commenters are focusing on the RPA part, but what seems to be more novel (to me at least) is the passive discovery of what could be automated with RPA. That seems like a generically hard problem, good luck!
- Digitaltzar 6y agoThank you, a great point! We have witnessed so many automation/RPA initiatives put on hold/buried because of the complexity or cost of process discovery, that's why a lot of R&D efforts are focused on this specific stage of automation lifecycle

- gk1 6y agoIt’s called process mining and it’s one of those stealthy use cases that nobody knows about but is a multi-billion dollar market.
- Digitaltzar 6y agoWhat we do is a bit different from Process Mining, our approach is known as Desktop Activity Mining, but from a helicopter view it's pretty much the same
- mikhailfranco 6y agoThe domain is called "Process Mining. For example, Rapid Miner: https://www.rapidminer.com https://www.rapidminer.com There's also a Coursera: https://www.coursera.org/learn/process-mining https://www.coursera.org/learn/process-mining
- Digitaltzar 6y agoThere is a good research paper that compares Process Mining to what we do, Desktop Activity Mining: https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/05a4/f2258a48aaaa2b2686f72f94437ae24729ec.pdf https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/05a4/f2258a48aaaa2b2686f72f...
