UiPath has acquired Peak, an AI-native company headquartered in Manchester, United Kingdom. The Peak AI platform enhances product inventory and pricing optimization for businesses across various industries, delivering fast, tangible results without requiring extensive in-house tech teams.
“With the acquisition of Peak, we are accelerating our mission to strengthen our vertical AI solutions strategy,” said Daniel Dines, Founder and CEO of UiPath. “When combined with the UiPath platform, Peak’s exceptional purpose-built AI applications will enhance our ability to provide solutions that optimize industry-specific use cases and deliver incredible value to customers.”
Peak empowers customers to create AI workflows, process data, and generate predictions that streamline critical business operations via APIs or integrated web applications. It also offers advanced AI-based decisioning tools, enabling business users to tackle complex tasks like inventory planning and product pricing optimization.
Now part of UiPath, Peak’s solutions gain the ability to scale globally and penetrate new industries, fostering growth and innovation for customers and stakeholders. Additionally, Peak’s emphasis on driving AI adoption in sectors such as retail and manufacturing will help UiPath expand its market presence and deliver cutting-edge, AI-driven, industry-specific applications powered by large language models (LLMs).
“Joining forces with UiPath is the perfect next step for Peak at this stage of our journey, and I couldn’t be more excited. As automation and agentic AI converge, we’re entering a new era of possibilities for the enterprise,” said Richard Potter, CEO & Co-Founder of Peak. “UiPath’s global reach, deep enterprise expertise, and unwavering commitment to AI innovation will enable us to accelerate our vision—empowering businesses with specialized decision-making AIs at scale. We are incredibly proud of what we’ve built, and as part of UiPath, we look forward to delivering even greater value to our customers while pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with AI in the enterprise.”
Peak is set to elevate the UiPath agentic automation platform, addressing the need for precise calculations in complex business processes. By delivering reliable analysis and predictions, Peak’s solutions will power UiPath’s new Pricing and Inventory Agents, ensuring businesses can make informed decisions. Additionally, Peak’s Decision Intelligence capabilities will enhance the platform’s orchestration features, enabling autonomous processes driven by contextual customer data.
With this collaboration, customers of both UiPath and Peak can achieve higher revenue and improved margins through their combined technologies. The partnership has already demonstrated success, such as transforming the quoting and pricing process for Heidelberg Materials, one of the world’s largest building materials manufacturers in the United Kingdom. The solution automates data collation from hundreds of sources, employs AI to determine optimal quotes, and equips sales teams with actionable insights. This streamlined, end-to-end process has significantly boosted efficiency, accelerating quotation times and increasing conversion rates.
