Quick answer

What is robotic process automation (RPA)?

Robotic process automation uses software bots to repeat rule-based tasks that people do on screens, such as copying data between systems, downloading reports from portals or filling forms. Stack18 identifies suitable tasks, builds bots on UiPath, Microsoft Power Automate or Python, adds exception handling and monitoring, and moves to APIs or AI agents where they are more reliable.

RPA or API integration: which is better?

APIs are more reliable when they exist. RPA is useful when systems have no API, such as government or partner portals. We recommend per task.

Which RPA tools do you use?

UiPath and Microsoft Power Automate for most enterprise work, and Python-based bots where licensing cost matters.

What happens when a website changes?

Bots can break when screens change. Monitoring alerts us immediately and maintenance is covered under the Bot Operations retainer.

Is RPA safe with passwords?

Credentials are stored in an encrypted vault, bots use dedicated accounts and every action is logged.

Do you provide RPA (Robotic Process Automation) across India?

Yes. Stack18 is headquartered in Jaipur, Rajasthan, and delivers RPA (Robotic Process Automation) for businesses across India, including Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad and Ahmedabad. Work runs remotely with weekly demos, and on-site workshops are arranged for key milestones.
