A UiPath alternative: automation by AI agents
For large multi-application programmes, UiPath remains the enterprise RPA reference. That assumes you need a platform. Most teams want something simpler, one precise task done, with no project and no licence. That is the path ERHA takes, with AI agents set up on your real files and paid per run.
What UiPath does very well
Automating dozens of processes, driving legacy applications without APIs, governing it all at group scale, that is where UiPath holds up. It takes a dedicated team, often a centre of excellence, but the platform does the work. If that's your situation, keep it. This comparison won't argue otherwise.
Why look for an alternative
The entry cost
Per-robot licences, infrastructure, integration. The ticket runs to tens of thousands of euros a year, before the first process is even automated.
Dedicated skills
Robots get built, then maintained. That takes RPA developers, sometimes an entire centre of excellence, and few teams can lock in those profiles.
Script maintenance
A screen moves, a layout gets revised, and the script breaks. Every robot added grows the pile of scripts to rework, and the cost of ownership follows.
Variable documents
A robot replays gestures, it doesn't read. The moment content needs interpretation, AI building blocks must be bolted on and the project gets more complex.
What changes with ERHA
Getting started
A platform project, with scoping, licences and development.
Set up on your real files, validated on results.
Skills
RPA developers, often a centre of excellence.
None. Your teams trigger and validate.
Maintenance
Scripts reworked at every change.
Format variations are absorbed.
Edge cases
The robot fails, or processes silently.
Flagged for human validation.
Cost
Annual per-robot licences.
Per run, displayed, capped, at real cost.

Coexist rather than replace
Looking for a UiPath alternative doesn't mean unplugging everything. Your robots in production on stable flows keep running. ERHA takes what trips them up, the variable documents, the business rules, the edge cases a human has to validate.
Getting started takes one process, one document type, one expected result, and a cost displayed on every run. You measure, then you widen.
Frequently asked questions
Do we have to drop UiPath to adopt ERHA?
No. Your robots keep the stable flows; ERHA takes the variable documents and interpretation tasks. Most teams start with a single process.
Can ERHA drive our applications like a UiPath robot?
No, and that isn't its role. ERHA doesn't replay clicks. It reads your documents, applies your rules and delivers the result into your tools. For driving a legacy interface without an API, a robot remains the right tool.
What happens to our licence budget?
It goes away. ERHA is paid per run, after a setup package. Every run shows its exact, capped cost, to be compared line by line with the human time or licence it replaces.
Ready to get that time back?
We'll show you ERHA on one of your own files, in 30 minutes.
