The market for Business Orchestration and Automation Technologies (BOAT) continues to evolve rapidly, driven by the convergence of automation tools and the rise of AI agents in business processes. As organizations move away from fragmented automation solutions, BOAT platforms are emerging as the enterprise control plane for agentic automation, governing orchestration, connectivity, observability, and policy at scale.
We are pleased to announce that Gartner has recognized Camunda as a Visionary in this year’s Magic Quadrant for BOAT.
Camunda helps enterprises go beyond isolated, task-based agents, coordinating multiple agents, automation tools, legacy systems, and people across complete processes. Our agentic BPMN approach combines deterministic guardrails with AI-driven decision-making, enabling advanced multi-agent coordination through protocols such as MCP and A2A. All of this runs on Zeebe, ensuring mission-critical processes operate reliably and at scale in one governed model.
