Uniphore, a Chennai-based enterprise conversational AI startup, has announced the acquisition of Orby AI, Inc. and its intent to acquire Autonom8, Inc.

“With the addition of Orby and Autonom8, we welcome world-class research and engineering talent and breakthrough AI capabilities that elevate our ability to orchestrate complex workflows. We’re ready to rapidly integrate these teams and deliver new innovations to our customers without delay,” said Umesh Sachdev, Uniphore Co-founder and CEO.

The acquisitions are expected to address a major challenge faced by most enterprises: moving beyond basic chatbots and predictive models toward agents that can reason, act, and optimize processes. Traditional automation tools struggle with complex workflows, but both Orby and Autonom8 have been working specifically to solve this issue.

Together, these acquisitions aim to fast-track Uniphore’s vision of the agentic enterprise—where AI agents handle business-critical workflows seamlessly alongside humans. This marks a new phase in Business AI evolution.

Uniphore already serves more than 2,000 global businesses across verticals such as legal, marketing, finance, and customer service. With Orby and Autonom8 in its fold, the company plans to launch early access programs later this year, giving select customers a first look at its expanded agentic workflow capabilities, according to the release.

While the financial terms of the transactions remain undisclosed, the message is clear: Uniphore aims to lead the development of the next generation of enterprise AI agents. With top AI talent from DeepMind, Google, and UiPath now on board, the company is sending a strong signal that Business AI is not just about efficiency—it’s about unlocking judgment, reasoning, and decision-making at scale.
