RPA stands for Robotic Process Automation. It is a software technology that enables businesses to automate repetitive and rule-based tasks performed by humans. These tasks can include data entry, data extraction, form filling, report generation, and other similar tasks.

RPA uses software robots, also known as “bots”, to perform these tasks. These bots can interact with multiple applications, databases, and systems, just like humans do. They can also handle exceptions and errors, and learn from their interactions to improve their performance over time.
