"Our customers are betting their business models on AI-enabled transformation, with Business AI Cloud at the core. With the addition of Orby and Autonom8, Uniphore will welcome world-class research and engineering talent and breakthrough AI capabilities that elevate our ability to orchestrate complex workflows," said Umesh Sachdev, CEO and co-founder of Uniphore.
Uniphore's Business AI Cloud is designed to enable enterprises to adopt an agentic approach through a full-stack AI system covering agents, models, knowledge, and data. The integration of Orby and Autonom8 is expected to accelerate automation of complex workflows that require reasoning and precision.
