Hey Sumo-lings! 👋
At present, we’re excited to share updates on our journey at Robomotion and what’s forward. Our story started 5 years in the past in a pre-AI world and has since developed into a strong automation device mixed with cutting-edge AI capabilities.
An enormous thanks to all our wonderful Sumo-lings in our Discord group through the years. Your invaluable suggestions has formed our product into what it’s immediately, driving us to innovate and evolve each step of the way in which.

WHAT’S HERE NOW
─────────────────────────────
✅ Agentic Assistant:
Our Assistant has undergone a whole transformation. It now helps each interactive and agentic modes, providing an intuitive, chat-driven expertise that simplifies complicated duties. The agentic mode offers a ChatGPT-like interface, making it easy to create, handle, and work together along with your automations. The interactive mode stays just like the earlier expertise, guiding customers with picks, inputs, and textual content. A brand new characteristic is our Customized Widget assist, which helps you to create and add customized parts inside the interactive chat. As an alternative of asking ten separate questions, your customized widget can acquire all the mandatory info in a single, stylized type and submit the information instantly into your automation. This Customized Widget assist will probably be additional enhanced with generative, prompt-based AI in our upcoming new Designer.
✅ Agent Bundle:
Constructed on Google’s Agent Improvement Equipment (ADK), our Agent Bundle empowers you to combine customized instruments and create good digital assistants — Brokers — that mix the intelligence of AI with the reliability of RPA. This implies your brokers can carry out multi-step duties reliably by leveraging AI to boost RPA’s deterministic basis.
✅ MCP Bundle:
Our new MCP assist transforms your flows into MCP Servers, enabling seamless connections with varied MCP hosts and purchasers like Cursor, Windsurf, or Claude Desktop. This not solely streamlines processes but additionally opens new avenues for integrating your automation flows throughout completely different platforms.
✅ Brokers Dashboard:
We’ve changed our previous Apps dashboard with a unified Brokers Dashboard. This streamlined interface makes it simpler than ever to handle your brokers and automation flows in a single place, delivering an improved and environment friendly consumer expertise. It offers fast entry to all of your brokers and serves as a gateway to our retailer, the place you may set up shared brokers with one click on.
✅ Agent Retailer:
The earlier Apps idea was initially designed to function the backend in your customized functions, however the course of was difficult for each non-technical and technical customers. You had to make use of FlutterFlow to develop these apps, which was time-consuming and restricted us to producing solely three apps. Transitioning from Apps to Brokers will change that. It is possible for you to to create Brokers for various duties, just like separate apps, however developed simply utilizing the drag-and-drop interface of the Designer, eliminating the necessity for exterior improvement instruments like FlutterFlow.
With the brand new Assistant, each Agent may have the identical intuitive interface and expertise. Moreover, with our Generative UI assist, the general expertise will probably be even richer. GenUI enhances the standard text-only chat interface with customized widgets for inputs or knowledge show.
We are going to repeatedly add extra Brokers to our Agent Retailer and supply them free of charge, full with customizable flows. The success of the Outreach Video Creator app, used and modified by chilly outreach businesses to go well with their wants, demonstrates the worth of sharing these complicated automations in our retailer. They weren’t simply templates however totally practical apps. With the introduction of latest Brokers, this course of will change into even simpler, permitting us to develop them extra rapidly. Our plan is ultimately to open the Agent Retailer to everybody, enabling customers to publish their Brokers, whether or not on the market or as one-click installations for his or her purchasers.
✅ New Undertaking Format:
To completely embrace the GenAI prompting world, we’ve reengineered our venture format from a posh JSON blob to a text-based circulation format. This variation was important for integrating AI to generate flows with prompts. It took important effort to keep up backward compatibility, however now we have now launched our new venture format together with our Git assist. The upcoming Designer will allow you to create flows utilizing prompts, providing a Cursor-like expertise in your RPA automation improvement.
✅ Git Help and Higher Collaboration:
A technical element: we now have a Git backend for our flows. You don’t must arrange or use an exterior Git server like GitHub; each save is now a Git commit in our personal backend. This implies each circulation can be a Git repository, permitting us to supply enhanced collaboration options, together with detailed historical past monitoring. At present, you may see who developed every half and when, and you may even revert to a earlier state of your circulation in time.

🚀 New Designer:
Put together for a contemporary, collaborative canvas expertise. Our new Designer will supply true real-time collaboration, think about working in your automation flows with the identical fluidity as Google Docs or Figma, the place a number of collaborators can work on the identical circulation concurrently, all inside an intuitive and highly effective interface. Our previous canvas served us effectively for over 5 years, nevertheless it has change into the principle limiting issue for the brand new period. Like all node-based instruments immediately, we’re switching to React Circulate, which can allow us to create a lot richer experiences. We’re transferring at a fast tempo to maintain up with immediately’s AI traits, and the brand new Designer will even assist prompt-based improvement, just like the Cursor expertise talked about earlier. All of the updates now we have been engaged on are geared towards this predominant generative circulation expertise. We’ve been releasing updates rapidly, and the Designer has come a good distance, we hope to publish it inside a month. Comply with us on our Discord the place we share teasers.
🚀 New Admin:
We’re revamping our administrative panel to supply a extra constant UI expertise throughout all our up to date merchandise.
🚀 New Types:
Our earlier Types improvement relied on a JSON object inside your flows utilizing the Kind package deal. Now we’re transitioning to a wise and environment friendly drag-and-drop interface.

AI vs. RPA: THE PERFECT COMBO
─────────────────────────────
Whereas the AI panorama is evolving so quickly that one 12 months can really feel like a decade, lots of immediately’s AI laptop automation instruments nonetheless face important limitations. Fashions equivalent to OpenAI Operator and Claude for Laptop Use would possibly impress in managed demos, however they battle with long-running duties, function slowly, and produce non-deterministic outputs. Laptop Use achieves an accuracy of 38.1% in OS World (working system navigation) and 58.1% in Internet Enviornment (web site navigation). Taking screenshots and figuring out the precise coordinates to click on in your desktop so as to proceed an automation isn’t dependable sufficient for a enterprise setting, even for main AI suppliers. In distinction, RPA stays deterministic, dependable, and 100% constant. Its power lies in its precision: as soon as an automation works, it really works each single time.
By combining RPA’s reliability with AI’s adaptive intelligence, we harness the most effective of each worlds. This excellent combo empowers you to construct automation flows which are each strong and good sufficient to evolve along with your wants.
