Camunda announced new
agentic orchestration capabilities to help organizations model, deploy,
and manage AI agents seamlessly into their end-to-end processes.
Additionally, Camunda is introducing a host of AI-powered features for
dynamic, intelligent decision making and process generation.
"To unlock AI's full potential, organizations must move beyond
isolated applications and operationalize AI within a holistic,
composable enterprise architecture - one that seamlessly integrates AI
with people, systems, and devices," commented Daniel Meyer,
CTO at Camunda. "Our new agentic process orchestration capabilities
provide the control and transparency needed for compliance, while
harnessing AI-driven decision making to enhance automation, optimize
operations, and scale business processes efficiently."
According to Camunda's 2025 State of Process Orchestration and Automation Report,
84% of IT and business leaders are looking to add more AI capabilities
over the next three years. However, 85% state they face challenges being
able to scale and operationalize AI across their organization.
Camunda's agentic process orchestration capabilities enable
organizations to operationalize AI with flexibility and control by
blending deterministic (logic defined at design time) and
non-deterministic (logic is determined at runtime, using AI models and
runtime data) process execution. This balance ensures compliance and
standardization where needed, while introducing AI-powered
personalization, adaptability, and resilience wherever it is beneficial.
Camunda
allows users to blend deterministic orchestration (via BPMN) with
non-deterministic orchestration (via agents) so you can implement as
much or as little AI as you want within guardrails.
The latest Camunda release includes several other AI-powered features and makes some previously announced task automation capabilities generally available.
- Ad-hoc Sub-processes - Enable tasks to be activated dynamically, removing the need to define the task sequence beforehand. By utilizing BPMN
(Business Process Model and Notation) ad-hoc sub-processes, AI agents
can autonomously manage tasks within a defined scope, executing them in
any order, repeating steps as needed, or skipping them entirely based on
real-time conditions. Camunda's built-in support for ad-hoc
sub-processes and AI connectors means organizations can confidently
experiment and build AI into their processes with reduced risk.
- Camunda Copilot - Quickly generate BPMN diagrams
from any text input, whether it's simple natural language or legacy
code, or generate documentation or suggestions from existing diagrams in
seconds. Through chat, technical and business users can ask follow-up
questions, test use cases, and iterate on processes to address business
requirements and ensure certain steps occur. This saves time, reduces
manual effort, and increases the quality of process models.
- Camunda RPA (Robotic Process Automation) - Seamlessly
integrate and bridge legacy systems without APIs, create and
orchestrate bots, elevating isolated task automation into scalable,
end-to-end process orchestration to fully operationalize AI across all
people, systems, and devices.
- Camunda IDP (Intelligent Document Processing) - Transform
documents into actionable data with AI-powered document processing,
providing organizations with the flexibility to choose their LLM and
customize and extend the solution to fit their needs. Convert
non-machine-readable documents into structured data, making them
accessible and actionable for AI-driven automation and decision making.
- Camunda SAP Integration
- Modernize your ERP landscape, confidently migrate to S4/HANA and
systematically introduce AI and automation through end-to-end
orchestration to truly operationalize AI across all people, systems, and
devices; including ERP. Camunda SAP Integration is the first of a
series of "system of record" integrations. As a SAP PartnerEdge Build
Partner, Camunda also makes it available to customers through the SAP
Store.
"This product release is a key piece of the AI and automation puzzle,
helping organizations maximize their investments," said Daniel Meyer.
"With Camunda's composable architecture, organizations aren't locked
into a single AI or automation technology which often results in broken,
disjointed processes that frustrate both customers and employees.
What's more, our highly scalable orchestration layer processes real-time
data and high transaction volumes, enabling personalized customer
experiences and proactive employee support."
