About Automat

GPAgent's own fund-neutral profile, written from public information. Updated Oct 5, 2026.

Summary

Automat builds AI-powered robotic process automation tools for operations teams in industries such as mortgage, banking, insurance, and healthcare. Its platform uses large language models and computer vision to let teams describe or record a workflow and turn it into a working automation, replacing the manual configuration work required by traditional RPA software. The current product includes both a managed automation service and an AI agent called Ace that operates its own computer, email, and phone to complete tasks inside the tools a customer already uses.

Business model

Pricing is offered through a plans page, with enterprise automations available via direct sales contact.

Go-to-market

Operations teams at mid-to-large enterprises in regulated industries are the primary buyers, reached through direct sales. Customers can either submit process descriptions or videos to have automations built for them, or explore the product through a self-serve demo.
