Workato

Workato is an enterprise control-and-execution platform built to help teams govern and run production AI workflows and automate business processes across a large app ecosystem. It’s designed to separate governance from execution so organizations can control what agents do—not just what they can access—while running real work reliably.

With a single control surface and one audit trail, Workato supports enterprise AI governance through policy, RBAC/verified user access, audit & activity logs, data masking & residency, and guardrails & approvals for consequential actions. It also includes an AI gateway & routing approach to help control which models each team can use.

On the execution side, Workato provides an integration and process automation layer with orchestration for reliable workflow execution (including event triggers and context) and composable MCP servers so agents call proven processes rather than raw tools. It’s built to connect to 14,000+ applications and run different agents on one execution runtime.

What does Workato mean by “control and execution” for enterprise AI?

Workato separates governance from action: a control plane governs what agents are allowed to do, while an execution plane runs the workflows and integrations that carry out that work.

How does Workato help govern what an AI agent can do?

It uses policies that cover agent actions, plus RBAC/verified user access. It also adds audit & activity logs, data masking & residency, and guardrails & approvals for consequential actions.

Does Workato provide audit trails for agent activity?

Yes—Workato provides audit & activity logs so agent actions are traceable in one place for oversight and review.

What is the difference between a gateway and execution in Workato?

A gateway focuses on governing access and rules, while the execution plane runs the workflow work. Workato aims to avoid gaps between permission and execution by combining them into a single platform.

How does Workato connect agents to business systems and processes?

Workato runs integration and process automation with event triggers and context, and it supports composable MCP servers so agents call proven processes rather than raw tools.

How many applications can Workato integrate with?

Workato highlights support for 14,000+ applications so teams can reach many systems that power their business.
