    Given the imperative to remain customer-centric and competitive, 
enterprises must offer differentiated offerings and be extremely responsive to 
customer requirements by being agile, hyper-productive, consistent and 
scalable. The seamless unification of human and digital workers, which we call 
as Automation singularity can be a powerful force in enabling this change. In 
this world of Automation Singularity

80619&source=Digital&subsource=PressRelease] is a major advancement that 
seamlessly delivers pervasive intelligence across process design, management 
and execution that will help organizations achieve greater automation coverage 
in their systems and processes. By harnessing the 'Human-Digital Twin' unifying 
assisted and unassisted automation, Albie helps organizations utilize 
contextual intelligence and drive smartness into exception management with 
business intelligence dashboards, cognitive services on tap, predictive 
resource management and expanded technology automation footprint.

    Ray Wang, Principal Analyst and Founder of Constellation Research, Inc. 
said, "The evolution of RPA has evolved from automation to cognitive driven, 
contextually intelligent automation. In that shift, organizations now expect 
greater augmentation of work for the human and digital worker with enterprise 
grade security as more and more systems are included, and greater precision is 
required."

    The AssistEdge Intelligent RPA is built on strong innovation using 18 
patent assets around critical dimensions of bot orchestration, performance 
prediction, deployment and AI. Albie pushes the automation frontier to 95% for 
tasks involving human discretion and enables optimized bot utilization and 
management, providing greater reliability in process execution.

Singularity. Powered by Albie, organizations will be able to seamlessly 
integrate human specialists with digital bots to create more scalable and
