Company profile

researched Aug 2026

automaited, operated by aiConomix GmbH and headquartered in Cologne, Germany, sells an AI agent platform for automating recurring business processes. Its AI Agent Framework combines multi-agent coordination with self-directed agents that take in inputs such as emails, manual requests or uploaded documents, enrich them with data from company systems, and route validated outputs to ERP, CRM, databases, spreadsheets or other applications. Two product lines are marketed: workflow automation, which lets agents operate software through built-in "agentic computer use" (web RPA, Windows desktop and mainframe applications, APIs including REST and legacy interfaces, email, and Google Workspace/Microsoft Office documents), and document processing, an agentic document AI pipeline that classifies documents, then uses a manager agent to orchestrate sub-agents that extract text, validate it against customer-defined business rules and format the output for auditability.

Promoted use cases include order processing, ticket automation and insurance claims, plus custom workflows. Platform capabilities named by the company include an AI Agent Builder with an interviewer assistant so non-developers can build agents (with an optional developer mode) and a "Trusted Agent Runtime" with customer-defined guardrails and monitoring. The company markets German hosting, GDPR and EU AI Act compliance, and an ISO/IEC 27001-certified information security management system. Earlier generations of the product were described as a self-learning software assistant that used robotic process automation and process mining to detect monotonous computer work and propose actions such as copying data or filling out forms, without requiring a programmer.

Founding story

The founders — Denis Golovin, Alexander Schwabauer and Eric Marre — are RWTH Aachen graduates and mentees of process mining researcher Wil van der Aalst, and built the initial product around self-learning RPA combined with process mining, collaborating with RWTH's Process and Data Science chair. The company describes having watched teams struggle with fragile scripts and outdated automation tools, and set out to build agents that adapt without code.

Business model

B2B software: the company sells and deploys AI agents on its platform to enterprise customers, integrating with their existing systems and, per its own claims, implementing agents in under 20 days.

Not disclosed in the available sources; the company positions its offering as "hire your AI agent" and cost-effective enterprise agentic automation with a stated ROI above 5.

Traction

The company states that more than 300 companies rely on automaited, cites 98.9% accuracy, 100x faster processing and ROI above 5, and quotes GetYourGuide's COO saying operational processes became up to 70% more efficient. At the time of the 2022 round, investor TechVision Fonds said the team had convinced many customers quickly enough to prompt an earlier-than-planned follow-on investment.

Latest developments

As of 2025 the company markets an AI Agent Framework with agentic document processing, workflow automation and integrations, an ISO/IEC 27001-certified ISMS, German hosting and AI Act compliance, and reports more than 300 customer companies. It maintains a deliberately small team of eight engineers, seven described as senior LLM and AI specialists, alongside founders in CEO, CTO, COO and Chief Scientist roles.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, history, risks & controversies

Market position

Positions itself against rule-based scripts and classical RPA tools and, on its own comparison page, against OpenAI Operator and Anthropic Computer Use, claiming broader interface coverage (web, Windows, APIs), no-code use, proactive email triggers, focus on recurring workflows, compliance modes and handling of unstructured data. Investors in its financing included Headline, Northzone, Visionaries Club and TechVision Fonds.

No-code agent creation for business users, hybrid interaction that mixes UI-level computer use with programmatic integration, coverage of legacy environments such as mainframe and Windows desktop applications, compliance features (guardrails, German hosting, GDPR/AI Act, ISO/IEC 27001), and a focus on recurring, complex enterprise workflows rather than one-off tasks.

Technology

Model-agnostic large-language-model agents orchestrated in a multi-agent framework, with agentic computer use (visual/UI interaction plus programmatic methods, selected automatically), built-in RPA for web interfaces, support for Windows desktop and mainframe applications, API and email ingestion, a document AI classification-extraction-validation pipeline, a no-code agent builder, and a runtime enforcing customer-defined guardrails. Earlier technology was based on robotic process automation and process mining, developed with links to RWTH Aachen's Process and Data Science chair.

Go-to-market

Direct enterprise sales with demo requests and guided implementation on the company website, supported by case studies, customer testimonials and content such as articles on agentic document processing; a YouTube channel is also maintained.

Enterprises and mid-sized companies with high-volume, document-heavy operational processes, including order processing, customer service ticketing and insurance claims; referenced users include GetYourGuide and Roland Assistance.

Geography

Headquartered in Cologne, Germany, with services hosted in Germany; the company said it planned to open new markets with its 2022 financing. Website offered in English.

History

Founded in Cologne under the name aiConomix; the company says it began building automaited in 2020 and launched publicly in 2022 (one press report gives a 2021 founding date, another 2020). An early-2021 pre-seed came from TechVision Fonds I, Visionaries Club and business angels, followed by a €4 million round announced in early 2022 led by Headline with Northzone, Visionaries Club and TechVision Fonds. The product evolved from a self-learning RPA and process-mining assistant into an LLM-based multi-agent automation platform.

Risks & controversies

Performance figures such as 98.9% accuracy, 100x faster processing, ROI above 5, sub-20-day implementation and the 300-plus customer count are company claims without independent verification in the available sources; reported founding dates differ between sources; the team is very small relative to enterprise deployment commitments, and the platform competes with offerings from large model providers.
