Replace legacy RPA

Retire the bot farm. Keep the audit trail.

Enterprises spend $200K to $2M a year maintaining brittle UiPath, Blue Prism, and Automation Anywhere scripts. Agents can do the work cheaper and more resiliently — but only if the runtime can pass your security review.

Why now

The cracks in your RPA program are real.

Script breakage

Every vendor UI change starts a ticket. Your automation COE spends most of its time repairing, not building.

License bloat

Per-bot seats at $8K–$20K a year, whether the bot runs one hour a day or twenty-three.

Brittle audit

Screenshots-on-failure is not an audit trail a modern regulator accepts.

Onshore-only execution

Bots tied to specific Windows VMs in specific data centers. Moving a workload takes quarters.

Slow new automations

Weeks of flowchart design for what a well-briefed agent does in minutes.

Talent bottleneck

A small pool of certified RPA developers. Expensive, in short supply, and nearing retirement.

Typical workloads

The automations worth migrating first.

Finance & ops

Invoice reconciliation, vendor onboarding, SOX-controlled journal entries — with a replay attached to every action.

Claims & billing

Portal logins, claim submissions, and denial workflows with HIPAA-safe credential handling.

Back-office IT

Ticket triage, SaaS admin, and account provisioning across any web console your employees use.

Compliance reporting

Regulator portals, tax filings, disclosure workflows. Audit-ready by default.

Supply chain

Carrier portals, broker sites, customs pages. The back-office web your ERP does not cover.

HR automation

Benefits enrollment, payroll reconciliation, offboarding checklists across SaaS tools.

Migration path

From script to agent in 90 days.

We meet your RPA center of excellence where it lives. Your existing flowchart becomes the agent's structured plan; your existing credentials move into the vault; your existing compliance controls map to our audit trail. No rip-and-replace.

  • Week 1–2: discovery workshop on three candidate workflows
  • Week 3–6: first workflow live in a pilot tenant
  • Week 7–10: IT security review with our SOC 2 packet
  • Week 11–12: production cutover with human-in-the-loop fallback

We ran the numbers against building this ourselves. It would have taken three engineers eighteen months and we still would not have had the replay viewer.

Controls mapping

Your RPA controls, preserved on the new stack.

Segregation of duties

Role-based access on the vault and on replay viewing. Maker / checker workflows via webhook handoff.

Change management

Every agent prompt and tool update version-controlled, with a replay on every canary run.

Evidence capture

Replay + audit log + HAR covers the screenshots-and-logs requirement in almost every regulated framework.

Vendor risk

SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and optional BAA. One subprocessor to review, not a fleet of desktop agents.

RPA migration FAQ

Can I reuse my existing process documentation?

Yes. Your flowcharts and SOPs become the structured context for the agent. We help translate them in the discovery phase.

What about desktop automation, not just web?

We focus on browser workloads. Desktop work still lives better on traditional RPA for now; most teams end up with a hybrid during transition.

Will my auditor accept replay as evidence?

Every auditor we have worked with has — and many prefer it to the screenshot-per-step model. We are happy to join a call and walk through it.

Retire a bot. Save six figures.

Pick three workflows. We will have one running in a pilot tenant in a month.
