- Automation & agents · editorial fit

Overview
Workato is an integration and orchestration platform for connecting applications and data, automating business processes, managing APIs, and building AI agents that take action through governed enterprise systems. Its recipes and connectors support both departmental automation and centrally managed integration programs.
Workato Free supplies a one-time credit grant and access to orchestration and agentic capabilities; paid self-service and enterprise offerings add recurring capacity, users, document processing, analytics, custom connectors, governance, and support. Usage is converted into Workato credits across tasks, API calls, rows, and agent actions.
