Working out the steps in a process is cumbersome and inaccurate – the “true path” is obscured by edge cases, and office politics can have an effect on finding out exactly how things are done rather than how they should be done. 65% of automation effort is spent understanding the business process.
Discovery Bot brings metrics into your business analysis activities – it provides the highest accuracy of capturing user actions as they do the process. It uses the inbuilt Universal Recorder to record user interactions with web and desktop applications. It also uses AISense deep learning technology for capturing UI objects from virtual environments and terminal screens.
Not only that, the Discovery Bot converts the recorded actions into draft RPA bots – making automation 5x faster.

You probably are aware that physical robots are doing many of the repetitive and often dangerous physical jobs that humans previously performed. Industrial welding, deep-sea exploration, and disaster response are all areas where these physical robots are increasingly useful.
Now, there’s an equivalent in the digital world. It’s called RPA. RPA is a way of automating processes so that repetitive and manual digital work is done by software robots, or “bots.” Say you have employees who work in your customer service organization. As part of their job, they must create reports on any issues customers experienced in the 24 hours.
Previously, they would tediously copy data from the CRM system, paste it into the correct fields in a Word-based report template, convert it to a PDF, and then email it to their boss.Extract from RPA - An Executive Primer
