Appian APPN recently launched its latest version of the AI-powered process platform featuring Appian AI Copilot, an AI assistant that boosts developer productivity. AI Copilot uses generative AI to create digital interfaces from PDF forms. It also uses Appian's private AI strategy for fast and secure process automation solutions.
The new Appian Platform offers more data fabric scalability and security, better AI skill designer experience and more unified Appian RPA. It leverages on Appian’s generative AI capabilities to simplify software development on an already low-code platform.
The AI Copilot aims to accelerate the end-to-end application development capabilities, reduce implementation times, reduce the total cost of ownership, and enable developers to become true value-added consultants to the business.
AI Copilot makes Appian an ideal platform for AI to express application designs. Companies like Wipro Limited, Yexle Limited, and Axiom Space have planned to adopt Appian’s new platform to support their processes and automation.
