About Workato
Workato is a widely adopted Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) that has evolved to serve as the control and execution plane for Enterprise AI. It is designed to prevent the chaos and sprawl of disconnected AI projects by providing a unified platform to build, run, and govern agents, integrations, and automated workflows.
By combining its massive library of application connectors with advanced AI orchestration tools, Workato allows enterprises to build multi-agent systems that interact securely with corporate data. Its architecture splits operations into a Control Plane—for governance, token economics, and policy enforcement—and an Execution Plane for high-scale, deterministic orchestration across data sources and APIs.
Key Features
- AIRO: A multi-agent system that acts as a data scientist, architect, and IT ops assistant to turn business intents into orchestrated outcomes.
- AI Control Plane: Centralizes identity, policy, approvals, observability, and cost controls (Token Economics) for every model, agent, and API interaction.
- Execution Plane: An elastic runtime that handles deterministic orchestration across agents, MCP servers, and enterprise data without requiring custom infrastructure.
- Universal Connectivity: Out-of-the-box support for over 17,000 apps, APIs, databases, files, and MCP servers.
- Model Agnostic Routing: Intelligent routing across open-source, closed-source, or fine-tuned models to prevent vendor lock-in.
- Embedded iPaaS: Allows SaaS companies to embed Workato's integration capabilities directly into their own products.
