, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- HCLSoftware (NSE: HCLTECH) (BSE: HCLTECH), the software business division of HCLTech, today announced its intent to acquire Robotiq.ai, a provider of Enterprise Robotic Process Automation ("RPA") platform, based in Zagreb, Croatia.

HCLSoftware is seeing growing enterprise demand for AI systems that not only reason but execute work reliably across complex business environments. Robotiq.ai adds enterprise RPA capabilities that allow AI-driven workflows to automate tasks in applications where APIs are unavailable or insufficient, extending HCL UnO Agentic's orchestration capabilities from decision-making to execution.

Robotiq.ai's RPA platform is used in large banks, insurance groups and telecom providers and is built with ISO-certified security, audit logs, and flexible deployment options making the platform reliable and secure.

"Enterprises are looking beyond AI experimentation toward production-scale automation that is secure, governed and reliable," said Kalyan Kumar, President, HCLSoftware. "Robotiq.ai strengthens HCL UnO Agentic by combining orchestration with enterprise-grade execution, helping customers confidently deploy and scale agentic AI across their operations."

"We built Robotiq.ai on a simple belief: automation should be useful, fast to deploy, and reliable in production," said Darko Jovišić, CEO & Co-founder, Robotiq.ai. "Joining HCLSoftware gives our technology the enterprise reach, scale, and platform. Together with HCLSoftware, customers get automation that doesn't stop at the task — it becomes part of an orchestrated, governed process across the entire enterprise."

The acquisition is expected to close in November 2026.
