UiPath has announced the global availability of agentic AI capabilities on UiPath Automation Suite, including in India. The update allows enterprises to deploy agentic AI within self-hosted environments while maintaining control over data residency, compliance, and security requirements.
The company said the move is aimed at helping organizations in highly regulated sectors adopt AI-powered automation without depending entirely on public cloud infrastructure.
India sees rising interest in agentic AI
According to a UiPath-commissioned IDC InfoBrief, nearly 40% of organizations in India have already implemented agentic AI, while close to 50% are planning deployments this year.
Agentic AI refers to AI systems capable of making decisions and carrying out tasks with limited human intervention. Enterprises are increasingly exploring these systems for workflow automation, customer support, software development, and operational management.
UiPath said many organizations have moved beyond pilot projects and are now looking at enterprise-scale deployments. However, compliance requirements in sectors such as banking, financial services, healthcare, insurance, and the public sector have slowed adoption.
The company noted that cloud-only AI deployments have remained a barrier for businesses that must comply with domestic data storage and processing rules.
Two deployment models for enterprises
UiPath Automation Suite now supports two deployment approaches for agentic AI workloads.
Automation Suite with cloud models
This option is aimed at enterprises that already use cloud-based large language models (LLMs) such as OpenAI GPT, Anthropic Claude, and Google Gemini, but want orchestration to remain within their own infrastructure.
UiPath said this setup supports features including:
- DeepRAG
- Advanced Extraction
- Autopilot for Developers
- Autopilot for Everyone
- ScreenPlay
The company added that enterprises can also use hybrid deployments. In this setup, Automation Suite runs on local infrastructure while AI inference is routed to external cloud providers.
Automation Suite with self hosted models
This configuration is designed for enterprises that want to run open-source AI models entirely inside their own data centers.
UiPath said this deployment includes access to:
- UiPath Maestro
- Agent Builder
- Context Grounding
- GenAI Activities
The company stated that this model gives organizations greater control over sensitive data and operational governance.
Focus on compliance and data sovereignty
Raghu Malpani, Chief Product and Technology Officer at UiPath, said regulated industries in the Asia-Pacific and Japan region have struggled to adopt agentic AI because of infrastructure and compliance restrictions.
“Compliance requirements should never be a ceiling on innovation, yet regulated industries across APJ have missed out on early agentic AI gains due to rigid constraints,” Malpani said.
He added that the updated Automation Suite allows enterprises to adopt AI-driven automation while maintaining control over security and data sovereignty requirements.
UiPath also confirmed that most agentic automation capabilities are already available through Automation Suite. Conversational Agent and Intelligent Xtraction and Processing (IXP) features are scheduled for release in October 2026.
The company said the expanded deployment options are intended to help enterprises scale AI automation projects while aligning with local regulations and internal governance policies.
