Automation Anywhere updates document bot

Automation Anywhere has announced updates to IQ Bot, RPA-integrated Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) solution that runs in the cloud or on-premise.

It now offers a large number of pre-packaged use cases out-of-the-box, designed to automate business processes that involve documents such as invoices, purchase orders, loan applications, insurance claims and many others across multiple industries. The new release also expands the user interface to support 10 languages and enables extraction from identification documents such as passports and industry standard documents for insurance, health claims and others.

"Organizations looking to transition to a digital enterprise require a solution that can intelligently process a large volume of documents involved in many business processes," said Prince Kohli, Chief Technology Officer at Automation Anywhere.

"IQ Bot's latest release further simplifies the automation journey by empowering business users to easily harness AI and machine learning to rapidly automate document-centric processes by themselves."

Updates include:

Expanding use cases: The new release adds support for identification documents, handwritten text in English and data extraction from industry standard documents.

Cloud-native for improved scalability: The RPA integrated platform offers customers end-to-end packaged solutions both in the cloud, via Automation Anywhere Enterprise A2019, and on premises for use cases such as invoice processing and others.

Infused with artificial intelligence (AI): IQ Bot leverages AI at each step of document processing and continuously learns from human feedback, simplifying automation of document processing.

New developer capabilities: Ability to incorporate developer written code such as Python scripts to improve extraction results for complex fields and tables, and to make them available via Automation Anywhere Bot Store.
