The Verdict
Automat is well-funded ($19.25M, backed by Felicis and Khosla) with ex-Google founders who built LaMDA prototypes. Their transformer-based RPA mimics human behavior on Windows, Citrix, and web. Mediar uses OS-level accessibility APIs for more deterministic execution. Both target legacy RPA replacement - Automat emphasizes AI adaptability, Mediar emphasizes reliability through native OS integration.
