“UiPath automation brings AI directly into business processes to help enterprises execute on whatever ideas and innovations they can imagine. Our partnership with Google Cloud is an essential part of our strategy to help joint customers achieve AI-powered automation across the business,” said UiPath chief customer officer Kelly Ducourty. “This expanded partnership reinforces our shared mission to bring the transformative force of AI to life in the enterprise through advanced technologies that automate all knowledge work, integrate intelligence into everyday operations, and deliver solutions that help people work smarter.”

Integration with Google AI
UiPath recently announced its connector for Google Cloud Vertex AI, Google Cloud’s unified AI platform, which allows automation professionals to inject Gen AI outputs into their automations by submitting prompts that return summaries, answers to questions, and classifications. With the connector, users can:
- Access curated activities to the PaLM 2 large language model (LLM), including text generation
- Easily build, deploy, and manage ML models and make fast, cost-effective predictions. UiPath customers can now incorporate machine learning models built with Vertex AI into business processes without the need for manual effort and complex code
- Enable Google Vertex activities in UiPath Studio to build automations that interact with Google Vertex data
In addition, UiPath customers can effortlessly integrate:
- Google Vision: use a prebuilt UiPath connector for incorporating business insights derived from images and videos. The Google Vision Connector encapsulates powerful machine learning models through an easy-to-use Rest API.
- Google Text Translate: translate a specified text from one selected language to another and extract the results as a String variable.
- Google Text Analysis: extract the language of specific text enabling insights into sentiment analysis. Sentiment is measured by strength, positivity, and negativity, and typically, can be automated to alert sales teams and message customers.
UiPath is now available on Google Cloud Marketplace
The UiPath Platform combines Specialised AI and Gen AI with enterprise automation, machine learning, and natural language processing. When Gen AI is combined with specially trained models built on real business data, automations can understand, reason, and create content to address complex business challenges.
