UiPath ranks first for teams whose work lives in screens rather than APIs. Its RPA page says its robots use AI Computer Vision and selectors to interact with screens the way a person would, across Windows and macOS, and that they reach legacy systems and virtual environments like Citrix. That last point matters for banks, insurers and hospitals that publish old applications through Citrix. UiPath adds a Healing Agent that repairs broken UI steps at runtime and ScreenPlay, which turns plain-language instructions into UI automations. The pricing page lists a Community plan that is free forever, a Basic tier starting at $25 per month for limited-scale team automations hosted in Europe, and Standard and Enterprise tiers priced by sales, with a 60-day free trial on Standard. Unattended RPA is listed as an add-on for Basic. The catch is that a real enterprise rollout will land on Standard or Enterprise, so budget a sales cycle before you can compare totals.
