--An industry first: Natural Language Generation (NLG) and Robotic Process 
Automation (RPA) now combined into a single platform

Arria NLG, the world's leading provider of NLG, and UiPath, the leading 
enterprise RPA software company, today announced a partnership to drive a new 
level of integration by combining NLG with RPA.

As the growing trend of digital enterprise automation continues, this 
partnership provides UiPath customers with access to two best-of-breed 
technologies within a single platform.  This makes it easier for joint 
customers to receive the full benefit of both automation solutions.

    -- Regarding the partnership, Dhruv Asher, SVP, Head of Business
       Development and Tech Alliances at UiPath, said: "We're excited to be
       partnering with an innovative Natural Language Generation (NLG) provider
       and offer this technology to our clients. UiPath's automation platform
       combined with Arria NLG's platform helps bridge the communication gap
       between robots and humans. The technology integration provides a
       platform which can help streamline automating knowledge processes. With
       the partnership, customers can easily automate reports previously
       written by a human with the NLG activity for UiPath Studio."

    -- According to Sharon Daniels, CEO at Arria: "This partnership exhibits
       the close synergies enjoyed by the two companies as we both serve the
       same enterprise-level businesses focusing on similar use cases, such as
       financial report automation, fraud, credit and risk applications, and
       numerous others. This is the natural extension of automating both the
       workflow and language-based analytics."

By partnering with Arria, UiPath becomes the first RPA provider to integrate 
NLG into its platform.  After a careful selection process, UiPath chose Arria's 
NLG technology because of its powerful analytical and linguistic 
functionalities, and its ease of use.  As a result, Arria will now be 
incorporated into the UiPath platform and be listed in the UiPath Go ecosystem 
featuring easily downloadable, secure automations for the world's biggest RPA 
community.

Using these two technologies together gives enterprise-level clients the 
ability to dramatically transform their operating models and gain a competitive 
edge in the marketplace by significantly accelerating their automation.  On the 
RPA side, this results in better accuracy, improved compliance, fast 
cost-savings, super scalability, increased speed and productivity; and with 
NLG, dramatically improved speed and efficiency in their analytics and 
reporting.

Natural Language Generation (NLG) automates knowledge-work. It is an advanced 
AI system that can think and write like a person.  Based on advanced 
computational linguistics and algorithms, it ingests vast quantities of data, 
analyzes it, draws conclusions--and instantly turns it into written (or spoken) 
words as if written by a human subject matter expert. The written reports, 
explanations and summaries it creates are custom tailored to the specific 
readers of the narratives.

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) automates human actions. It allows anyone to 
configure computer software, or a "robot" to emulate and integrate the actions 
of a human interacting within digital systems to execute a business process.  
The UiPath AI-powered RPA platform lets companies automate repetitive tasks and 
rule-based business processes resulting in operational acceleration, cost 
reduction, and increased employee satisfaction.

Together these two leading-edge technologies deliver direct profitability while 
improving speed and accuracy across organizations and industries.
