About Automation Anywhere

Automation Anywhere is an agentic process automation platform, and its customer service solution points that machinery at support work: AI agents that triage, categorize, and route tickets, verify identity, check and modify orders, process returns and RMAs, handle password resets and account changes, and keep messages in sync across channels. The pitch is "talk and act": conversational AI on the front end, with agents that execute in the systems behind it, CRM, ITSM, and ERP alike. Native integrations cover Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Zendesk, Automation Co-Pilot assists human agents inside the tools they already use, and the platform generates knowledge articles and tracks CSAT and NPS along the way.

The company was founded in 2003 in San Jose by Mihir Shukla and Ankur Kothari and grew into one of the biggest names in RPA; Gartner has named it a Magic Quadrant Leader for eight consecutive years, and it reports over 400 million automations a year across 1,500+ live agentic deployments. The reason it appears in this directory is the November 2025 acquisition of Aisera, whose conversational self-service agents for IT, HR, and customer service (including AiseraGPT, formerly listed here on its own) folded into the platform, with more than 100 Aisera AI engineers joining to build the combined agentic stack. Aisera's customer service pages now redirect to this one. Customers on the support side include SoftBank, the City of Seattle, and Ricoh, which credits the platform with 500 days of work saved per month.

Nothing is published on price for the customer service solution: expect a sales cycle and a custom quote, and the vendor itself cites implementations running from $50k to over $250k for enterprise builds.

Choose Automation Anywhere when support automation is one front of a broader enterprise automation program and you want ticket resolution wired into the same platform that runs finance and IT workflows. If you want a helpdesk-native AI agent your support team can switch on in a week, the purpose-built tools in this directory will get there with far less machinery.

About Moveworks

Moveworks is an AI assistant platform for an entire workforce, built to search and act across the business applications employees already use. An agentic reasoning engine decides what a request actually needs, a marketplace ships more than 1,000 prebuilt agents, and enterprise search reaches across 50 or more systems including OneDrive, SharePoint, Confluence and Outlook. Agent Studio is the low-code builder for teams that want their own agents, and the assistant answers in more than 100 languages across chat, web, mobile and portals.

The Slack behaviour is the part worth understanding, because it is more aggressive than most. Any employee can DM the assistant directly, but Moveworks also puts a bot in the public IT channel, a feature it calls Channel Resolver. It reads every message posted there, and when it predicts it can remediate the issue it steps in: it DMs the employee to resolve the problem, then updates the channel so the answer is visible to everyone. Moveworks describes the resolvable set as software provisioning, account unlocks, installation instructions and the guest WiFi password, which is to say the bulk of what an ask-IT channel actually receives. The same assistant runs in Microsoft Teams, and since a January 2025 expansion of the Microsoft alliance it is also reachable as an agent inside Microsoft 365 Copilot.

Bhavin Shah, Vaibhav Nivargi, Varun Singh and Jiang Chen founded the company in 2016, and it raised more than $300 million from investors including Tiger Global and Kleiner Perkins. On March 10, 2025 ServiceNow agreed to buy it for $2.85 billion in cash and stock, the largest acquisition in ServiceNow's history, and the deal has since closed. Moveworks says more than 350 large enterprises and over 5 million employees use it, including 10 percent of the Fortune 500. Named customers include CVS Health, Toyota North America, BambooHR, Instacart, Coca-Cola Consolidated, AkzoNobel, Procore and Micron.

Pricing is not published anywhere on the site: this is an enterprise sale with a quote at the end of it. Choose Moveworks if you are a large enterprise with a busy ask-IT channel and you want an assistant that resolves in the channel rather than deflecting to a portal, and doubly so if you are already a ServiceNow shop. Skip it if you are under a few thousand employees, where the deployment effort and the contract size will both outrun the problem you are solving.
