In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, businesses are constantly looking for ways to streamline processes, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. The overlap of various automation technologies like Robotic Process Automation (RPA), Business Process Automation (BPA), and low-code platforms (LCAP) has made it challenging for companies to select the right tools. However, a new solution is emerging that consolidates these technologies into a unified platform—Business Orchestration and Automation Technologies (BOAT).

What is BOAT?

According to Gartner, BOAT represents the next stage in the evolution of process automation. It combines capabilities from RPA, BPA, integration platforms (iPaaS), and low-code solutions into a single platform designed to orchestrate and automate end-to-end business processes. The BOAT platform doesn’t just automate routine tasks but leverages advanced technologies like intelligent document processing, process mining, and generative AI to handle more complex workflows.
