## What the models said for it

- "UiPath recognized as a Leader for the sixth consecutive year—positioned highest for Ability to Execute and furthest for Completeness of Vision" (MiniMax M2.5, RPA)
- "the best robotic process automation software for a mid-sized B2B company would be UiPath, Automation Anywhere, or IBM Robotic Process Automation" (Llama 4 Maverick, RPA)
- "Start with the UiPath Community Edition. It is the only way to get high-end, professional-grade automation software for free." (Qwen 3.7 Flash, RPA)
- "UiPath is widely considered the gold standard for large-scale, complex enterprise automation. It has been ranked #1 by Gartner" (Qwen 3.7 Flash, RPA)

## And against it

- "SMBs should approach UiPath with caution... its licensing fees, Orchestrator costs, and the high salary demands of specialized UiPath developers make its TCO steep." (Gemini 3.5 Flash, RPA)
- "Be cautious if you need low-code citizen development on a tight budget, or want AI-first automation rather than RPA+AI add-ons." (Muse Glimmer 30B, RPA)
- "High/ unpredictable licensing costs... Steep learning curve for advanced features; complexity overwhelms non-developers." (Grok 4.20, RPA)
- "Large enterprise RPA suites such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism if you are a small or mid-sized team" (Perplexity Sonar, RPA)
