Process mining stops at the insight.
Automation is brittle.
AI assistants need direction.
Caddi fixes all three.
Process mining finds the work and stops. Automation makes you build and babysit it. AI assistants are great at judgment work, one person at a time. Caddi is end-to-end: it discovers the work in the tools you already use, your team builds the automation with no IT project or hands judgment-heavy work to Claude or Copilot, and Govern monitors the work in Caddi and the work it hands off.

AI agents and assistants
Use them together. Assistants like Claude and Copilot are great for individual, judgment-heavy work. Caddi Discover finds the work worth automating and sends each finding to the best tool for the job: Caddi for high-volume work that has to run the same way every time, or Claude as a skill and Copilot as an agent. Caddi Govern monitors the work in Caddi and the work Caddi hands to Claude or Copilot.

See the listDeciding between two automation tools? These even-handed breakdowns help you pick, then show the catch they both share, and how Caddi handles it.
Zapier vs. UiPath
Cloud app-to-app glue vs. enterprise RPA. One connects SaaS tools through APIs; the other drives the screen like a person. Here's how to pick, and the catch they both share.
Read comparisonUiPath vs. Power Automate
The category-leading RPA platform vs. Microsoft's built-in automation. One is best-of-breed and platform-agnostic; the other is cheaper and everywhere you already work. Here's how to choose.
Read comparisonPower Automate vs. Zapier

Read comparisonCelonis vs. SAP Signavio
Two heavyweights of SAP-era process work. Celonis leads on process mining and intelligence; Signavio pairs mining with process modeling inside SAP's transformation suite. Here's how to pick, and the gap they share.
Read comparisonn8n vs. Zapier
Open, self-hostable workflow builder vs. a much larger no-code app catalog. n8n bills per workflow run and rewards teams that can write a little code; Zapier bills per action and rewards teams that want to ship in minutes. Here's how to pick, and when neither fits.
Read comparisonZapier vs. Make
Linear no-code Zaps vs. a visual scenario canvas. Zapier has the bigger catalog and the gentler learning curve; Make gives you branching, routers and data mapping on one screen for less per operation. Here's how to pick, and when neither fits.
Read comparisonn8n vs. Make
Two visual workflow canvases with different bets. n8n is self-hostable, bills per workflow run and lets you drop into code; Make is cloud-only, bills per module action and keeps everything visual. Here's how to pick, and when neither fits.

Workflow Automation Trends 2026: What Is Changing
Keep lightweight builders for simple glue. For the workflows that actually drive capacity, the category has moved to show-and-build, AI-native automation.
See the shiftHow AI Workflow Automation Is Changing in 2026
DIY AI canvases proved the model. The 2026 version makes it easier to build, easier to maintain, and actually fit for law and finance.
See the shiftHow AI Agents Are Changing in 2026
The best of both worlds: use LLM reasoning to craft the right workflow, then deterministic automation to execute it exactly, the same way every time.
See the shiftHow RPA Software Is Changing in 2026
RPA proved back-office automation works. The 2026 version replaces brittle, dumb, screen-scraping bots with smart, API-first, auditable automation.
See the shiftHow Business Process Automation Is Changing in 2026
BPA's goal, orchestrate the whole process, is right. The 2026 version swaps rigid rules and brittle connectors for AI decisions and API-first execution.
See the shiftHow Document Automation Software Is Changing in 2026
Document tools nailed the document step. The 2026 version automates the whole workflow around it, across data types and systems, without the labeling slog.
See the shiftHow Business Orchestration and Automation Technologies Are Changing in 2026
BOAT's end-to-end ambition is right. The 2026 version swaps the platform team and long rollout for AI decisions, API-first execution, and a done-for-you build model.
See the shiftHow Intelligent Document Processing Is Changing in 2026
IDP nailed extraction. The 2026 version reads documents without templates or training, makes decisions, and writes to your systems of record, the whole workflow, not just the document.
See the shiftHow Enterprise Low-Code Application Platforms Are Changing in 2026
Low-code is the right tool when you truly need to build an app. For automation that never needed an app, the 2026 move is record a workflow instead of building one.
See the shiftWhat Is Agentic Automation?
Rules-based automation still fits perfectly predictable steps. For work that needs judgment and can't be allowed to break, the category has moved to agentic automation, and the winning version pairs AI decisions with deterministic execution.
See the shiftWhat Is Agentic AI?
Autonomous agentic AI is the right tool for open-ended, exploratory work. For production back-office automation, what teams actually want is agentic automation: AI decisions plus deterministic execution you can trust.
See the shiftWhat Is Agentic Process Automation (APA)?
RPA still fits narrow, perfectly predictable tasks. For real, end-to-end processes that need judgment, the category has moved to agentic process automation, and the reliable version pairs AI decisions with deterministic execution.
See the shiftWhat Is Process Mining?
Process mining is the right tool for deep, ERP-scale analysis of a known process. If the goal is to find the work worth automating and actually automate it, with every run logged and reviewable, you need Discover, Automate and Govern in one place, which is what Caddi does.
See the shiftWhat Is Process Intelligence?
Process intelligence platforms go deeper on enterprise process modeling than anything else. But insight only pays when the work changes. Caddi is built around that last mile: Discover, Automate and Govern in one product, so a finding becomes a running, governed automation.
See the shiftWhat Is Task Mining?
Task mining sees the desktop detail that logs miss, at the cost of a recorder on every machine, and it still hands the build to someone else. Caddi finds the work from the systems of record, lets the ops person build it, and governs every run, with no screen recording.
See the shift
