What is Robotic Process Automation?
‍Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a form of business process automation based on artificial intelligence. RPA is used to automate otherwise manual tasks. “Bots” communicate across systems while interpreting trigger responses to perform repetitive tasks. Unison harnesses the power of robotic process automation to tackle time consuming aspects of market research and simplify it.
