Unleash your productivity with Autopilot™

Autopilot™ offers a set of AI-powered capabilities designed to help you create and test automations faster and easier. To see what Autopilot offers across the UiPath® Business Automation Platform, check out the Autopilot guide.

Using Autopilot capabilities, you can utilize natural language to generate complex expressions. AI-generated expressions enable you to describe the desired outcome for a particular activity input, while an AI-based model will create a valid expression based on the request. For more information, see Configuring activities.

You can also use natural language prompts to describe to Autopilot the structure and outcome of a workflow. You can start building a workflow from scratch or from one of the predefined prompt examples. Based on your instructions, Autopilot identifies relevant activities and adds them in a logical sequence, providing a visual preview of the proposed workflow. You can also generate the next steps in your automation by typing in your instructions as annotations inside sequences. For more information, see Creating a project and Adding activities to a project.

With its summarization capabilities, Autopilot can also describe the inner workings of activities and sequences by creating meaningful names that take into account the elements that define the activity or sequence. To learn more, see Managing the activities in a project.

Improved Install button

The Install button used to download Studio and Assistant is now named Install locally and gives you more information about the two UiPath products.
