Low-Code and AI Agents - Friends not Foes

AI Agents and Low-Code automation aren’t separate revolutions, they are complementary. Together, they form the most powerful way to deploy, scale and govern automation across an enterprise.

The conversation around automation has shifted. For years, businesses invested in robotic process automation (RPA), workflows and Low-Code platforms to digitise repetitive tasks. More recently, AI Agents, autonomous systems that can reason, act and collaborate across different business functions have entered the spotlight.

But here’s the real opportunity: AI Agents and Low-Code automation aren’t separate revolutions, they are complementary. Together, they form the most powerful way to deploy, scale and govern automation across an enterprise.

At Robiquity, we believe this combination represents the next frontier in intelligent automation, one that you and your businesses can harness today.

Why AI Agents Need Low-Code

AI Agents promise something beyond chatbots or traditional RPA: they can carry out goals, not just tasks. An agent might not just fill in an invoice but instead manage the entire month-end process, dynamically choosing the best tools and data sources along the way.

However, AI Agents are only as effective as their environment. To be truly useful, they need:

  • Connectivity: Access to systems, apps and data across the enterprise.
  • Orchestration: A way to coordinate multiple agents and human workers.
  • Governance: Guardrails around security, compliance and scalability.

This is where Low-Code platforms shine. Tools like UiPath and Microsoft Power Platform are already designed to connect systems, orchestrate workflows and manage governance at enterprise scale. Layering AI Agents on top doesn’t replace Low-Code, it supercharges it.

Low-Code as the Launchpad for Agents

Imagine a retail business deploying a customer service agent. On its own, the agent might answer questions. But integrated into Power Platform, it can:

  • Pull customer data from Dataverse
  • Trigger UiPath bots to retrieve stock levels from legacy systems
  • Escalate to a human via Microsoft Teams if needed

The result isn’t just an agent, it’s a business process brought to life that blends AI, automation and people seamlessly.

Similarly, a financial services organisation might use Copilot Studio to build an AI Agent that automates loan applications. Low-Code connectors handle ID verification, UiPath bots extract and process documents from older systems, and Power Automate manages compliance workflows. The agent becomes the orchestrator of an end-to-end journey.

Without Low-Code, these integrations would take months of custom development. With Low-Code they can be deployed in weeks and scaled across the enterprise.

The Multi-Agent Enterprise

The real breakthrough happens when agents don’t just operate in silos but work together.

Picture this:

  • A Copilot Studio agent engages customers and captures requests.
  • A UiPath agent executes back-office tasks against a legacy mainframe.
  • A Power Automate agent updates records in Dataverse and informs finance.
  • A governance layer ensures security, monitoring, and compliance.

This is no longer “automation here and there”, it’s a network of agents across your organisation, each doing their part but working together through Low-Code platforms.

The outcome? Faster processes, more resilient operations and employees free to focus on creativity and innovation rather than repetitive tasks.

Why This Matters for Business Leaders

For CIOs, CTOs and Heads of AI, the message is clear:

  • Speed matters: Your competitors are already experimenting with AI Agents. Low-Code platforms give you the fastest, safest route to move from proof-of-concept to enterprise scale.
  • Governance matters: AI without guardrails is risk. Low-Code gives you enterprise-ready governance baked in.
  • Integration matters: Agents only succeed if they connect across your ecosystem, and Low-Code is already designed to integrate widely and deeply.

In other words, AI Agents will not replace your Low-Code investment; they will amplify it.

Robiquity’s Role

At Robiquity, we’ve spent years helping organisations deploy automation through UiPath, Microsoft Power Platform and more. Now, we’re leading the way in combining those foundations with AI Agents; building systems where human workers, automated processes and intelligent agents come together to transform how work is getting done.

Our role is simple: to help you move beyond experimentation into scalable reality. Whether it’s orchestrating agents across platforms, embedding governance or identifying high-value use cases, we ensure AI Agents deliver tangible outcomes for your organisation.

Friends not Foes 

The future isn’t “AI vs. automation.” It’s AI plus automation, brought together through Low-Code.

Enterprises that embrace this now will gain a decisive advantage: faster processes, lower costs and the agility to reimagine entire business models. Those that wait risk being left behind.

AI Agents are here. Low-Code is ready. The perfect match is waiting.
