UiPath has acquired WorkFusion, a company specializing in AI agents for financial crime compliance, in a strategic move to strengthen its presence in banking and financial services automation. Although the financial terms of the deal remain undisclosed, the acquisition signals UiPath’s commitment to scaling agentic AI for highly regulated industries.
More importantly, this transaction aims to deepen UiPath’s capabilities in anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) operations two areas that demand precision, speed, and regulatory compliance. Instead of relying solely on traditional robotic process automation (RPA), UiPath plans to integrate WorkFusion’s AI-driven agents into its broader automation ecosystem.
WorkFusion brings a pre-built library of intelligent agents designed to handle some of the most time-consuming compliance tasks. These include customer screening, risk assessment, transaction monitoring, and in-depth case investigations. Consequently, banks can reduce manual workloads while improving accuracy and consistency in compliance processes.
At the same time, UiPath intends to merge WorkFusion’s technology with its own agentic automation and orchestration platform. This combination will allow financial institutions to automate complex workflows, analyze hidden risk patterns, and prioritize high-risk cases that require human review. As a result, compliance teams can focus on strategic decision-making rather than repetitive data processing.
Reflecting on the acquisition, WorkFusion CEO Adam Famularo emphasized both pride and opportunity. “Joining UiPath is a moment of validation for the years our team has poured into creating something bold, different, and deeply needed in financial crime compliance, AI agents that automate work and mitigate risk.”
He further highlighted the strategic value of the merger, stating: “Now, UiPath gives us the scale to grow faster than we ever could alone, without losing the heart of who we are, our people, our products, and our mission. Together, we’re creating something bigger than any one company: we are modernising financial crime compliance.”
From UiPath’s perspective, the acquisition aligns with its broader goal of helping banks meet regulatory expectations while lowering operational costs. The company believes that combining RPA with specialized AI agents will create a more intelligent and resilient compliance framework.
UiPath CEO Daniel Dines reinforced this vision, explaining that WorkFusion’s capabilities will expand the company’s portfolio of industry-specific agentic AI solutions. “Incorporating WorkFusion’s purpose-built AI agents for financial crime compliance into our platform expands our portfolio of agentic AI solutions for these industries, extending our ability to deliver comprehensive business orchestration and automation solutions to our customers.”
He also added that the integration will empower organizations to automate mission-critical processes while maintaining human oversight. “We’re delivering a powerful set of AI-powered solutions capable of automating and orchestrating critical compliance processes and workflows while working alongside people to deliver impact.”
Overall, this acquisition positions UiPath as a stronger player in AI-driven financial compliance combining automation, intelligence, and human expertise to modernize how banks manage risk and regulation.
