Comparison

aiprocess.design vs Celonis, honestly

Celonis practically invented modern process mining and remains its reference: object-centric intelligence over the data your systems already produce, at serious enterprise scale and price. This page is for the moment before all that: when a process needs to be redesigned for humans and AI agents, and the knowledge lives in people, not yet in extractable logs.

The difference in one sentence

Celonis measures the process you have; aiprocess.design designs the process you want, with agents as first-class citizens, and gives you the oversight and the euros to defend it.

Celonisaiprocess.design
Core purpose Process intelligence platform: object-centric mining on live system data Design studio for processes where humans and AI agents work together
Starting point Event logs extracted from SAP, Oracle, Salesforce and more A plain-words description, a drawing or an interview; both maps in minutes
AI agents Agent tools give AI agents access to process data and KPIs for execution Agents are design objects: autonomy, capability, risk, model, cost, and the controls that watch them
The question answered "Where does our process deviate and leak value, right now?" "How should this process work with agents in it, and can we defend that design?"
Governance Conformance to the discovered process Oversight of the future process: human gates, controls, EU AI Act readiness annex
Business case Value opportunities quantified from mined friction Redesign economics: hours saved vs token costs, payback month, what-if stress tests
Typical buyer Enterprise transformation and CoE teams, six-figure programs Consultants and operations teams, one process at a time
Data required System extractions and connectors None: the knowledge in people's heads is enough to start

Frequently asked questions

Is aiprocess.design a Celonis alternative?

Not for process mining: Celonis leads that market and needs your system data to do its magic. It is an alternative for a job Celonis does not do: sitting with the people who run a process and designing its human + AI-agent future, with agent-level governance and a business case, before any automation exists and without any data extraction.

Celonis has AI agent tools now. Is that the same thing?

Different layer. Celonis gives already-built agents controlled access to live process data and KPIs, which is powerful for execution and monitoring. aiprocess.design works earlier in the chain: deciding which steps should become agents at all, how autonomous each may be, who supervises them, and whether the economics justify the build. Design first, then execution platforms like these.

When should I pick Celonis instead?

When you have high-volume processes running through major systems and need to see, from data, where they deviate, stall and leak value, continuously. If instead you need to redesign a process for the agent era this month, with people in a room rather than extractors in an ERP, this studio is the tool.
