UiPath 2026 AI和代理自动化趋势报告

UiPath 2026 AI and AgenticAutomation Trends Report Unlocking the Map To formulate these trends, we have gatheredperspectives from the UiPath automationecosystem, which includes 10,000+customers, 5,000+ partners, and 3 millionUiPath Community members. We have alsoturned to our own experts: UiPath AIscientists, product and software teams, Welcome to this year’s UiPathTrends Report, ourannual examination of themost powerful forcesshaping the next wave of The theme of this year’s trends is “Unlockingthe Map.” In gaming, this phrase describeshow players gain access and visibility intohidden territories as they complete missions, And that’s exactly what’s happening in AI andagentic automation. Organizations now seethe contours of what’s possible and thepossibilities contained within this new world.Boundaries and barriers—between data andaction, between pilots and production,between initial investment and ultimate This year, exploration gives way to executionas enterprises move from isolated trialstoward connected, governed systems.Single-agent processes cede territory tomulti-agent systems where agents, robots,and people work together across data,applications, and workflows. Organizationsfind a faster, smoother path to agentic 2026 is the year when companies unlock themap that leads them into their agentic future.Let’s start the journey. Overview UiPath 2026AI and AgenticAutomation Trends Necessity as the mother of reinvention AI’s disruptions compel organizations to make boldchanges in how they operate, compete, and allocate work. AI ROI at last 2Enterprises find their path from pilots to payout. 3Vertical ascentFocused agentic solutions take off and fly high. 4The power of the swarm Multi-agent systems land all over, transforming workflows Enter the command center 5Control moves to a new plane by centralizing orchestration, Gloves off, guardrails up Enterprises act decisively to ensure security, transparency,and control for every AI agent and agentic workflow. Data goes meta 7 Companies double down on adding the context, structure, real-timeaccess, and control that turn enterprise data into agent rocket fuel. Necessity as themother of reinvention AI’s disruptions compel organizations to make boldchanges in how they operate, compete, and allocate work. It’s now clear that agent-centric operating models can dramaticallyoutperform traditional ways of working—making it imperative forenterprises to reinvent themselves as agentic organizations. This Trend #1 Necessity as the mother of reinvention Among executives, three-quarters predictagentic AI will reshape the workplace moreprofoundly than the Internet did, and 82% The new operating system will need toaddress several critical challenges, each with say it will transform their own industrieswithin 18 months.The vast majority have1 already brought some agents into their 1) Massive redistribution of work between The agentic era marks a radical redivision oflabor between people and virtual workers.It’s already happening: today, across roughlyone-third of all occupations, AI systemsperform more than a quarter of the tasks.⁵ While changes will ripple through leadership,talent, and strategy, the most striking area oftransformation involves reconceiving thetechnology and operating systems that Technology implications:As people andvirtual workers share more of the work, anorchestration layer that governs, monitors, Enterprises widely recognize this gap: in onestudy, 78% of C-suite executives agreed thatgaining maximum benefit from agentic AIrequires a new operating model built around 2) Agents moving into core, high-value AI agents are extending automation intohigh-value, judgment-based processes suchas decision making and risk management— This new agentic operating model requiresnew technologies that can orchestrate,govern, and continually optimize the work ofagents, robots, and people across anincreasingly complex digital ecosystem. In Technology implications:Technology mustsupport safe autonomy—automation that isauditable, explainable, and resilient, with Trend #1 Necessity as the mother of reinvention such as simulation, testing, and rollback, aswell as continuous monitoring for complianceand accuracy. Reliability and assurance The map ahead In this new world, the OS becomes not just acontrol center but a bridge—connectingecosystems while ensuring safety andtransparency.As agentic capabilities scale,the question for enterprises will no longer be 3) Continuous adaptation and real-time, Because agents can learn, adapt, andself-optimize, change becomes continual asagentic systems fine-tune operations tomaximize outcomes. This constant evolution Success will depend on implementing anoperating system that integrates automation,governance, and orchestration into oneadaptive capability. In 2026, necessity will Technology implications:Operating systemswill need to be modular, composable, andself-adaptive, integrating new tools,
