About

Dear RPA-tors. Let me congratulate you with great change in the RPA world. Since 2019 the first enterprise level open source RPA platform is here!

The pyOpenRPA - free, fast and reliable Powerful OpenSource RPA tool for business (based on python 3). Best performance and absolutely free!

The pyOpenRPA is based on Python and using well known OpenSource solutions such as Selenium, OpenCV, Win32, UI automation and others. Thanks to it we were able to create consolidated platform with all possible features. The pyOpenRPA is distributed under the MIT license which allows you to use it in any way you want and any time you need without any restrictions. At the time of this writing the pyOpenRPA is successfully using in several big Russian companies. Companies in which it was decided to develop own RPA division with no dependencies on expensive licenses.
