Growing, but name searches are down 13% since October 2025.

Over two years, visits went from 10M in November 2024 to a high of 28M in October 2026, and stand at 28M in October 2026. Much of the year’s change is one site, IBM, which is why I also look at the market without it.

Miles explains

I only call a market growing when visits and name searches agree. Here visits are up and name searches are down, so they don’t agree yet.

“ai rpa” is searched about 2,900 times a month worldwide, 17% of it in the US.

Google Trends barely registered “ai rpa” until March 2026; interest then climbed to its peak in May 2026. Americans make 17% of the searches but only 10.3% of the visits, because the big sites also draw heavily from India, Canada and Brazil.

Miles explains

Google Trends shows direction, not volume. Interest is lower than a year ago, and I only trust that when the visits move the same way.

More visits than a year ago, but fewer people searching by name, and the next six months look like growth.

The fastest growers over the year, Klippa, IBM and Blue Prism, grew fastest, mostly from a smaller base. The losers, led by Nintex, lost most of their search visits (-75%).

Biggest gain this month

UiPath +45%

Biggest loss this month

Klippa -46%

Miles explains

Huge percentages like Klippa’s +805% usually mean one site won a big Google ranking from a small start. I watch whether it holds the next month.

I expect November 2026 to be about the same as October 2026, and the next six months to look up.

The forecast carries the level of recent months forward, not the trend line, because that version missed least when tested on past months.

Expected in November 2026

29,057,629 visits

Likely range

27M to 31M

Expected in May 2027

Miles explains

Read the range, not the single number: tested on the last 6 months, my method landed inside its range 5 times.

The most visited is IBM, with 28 million visits a month, 97% of all visits.

IBM and Klippa together hold 99% of all visits. Below the top five the market is long and thin: the other 5 sites share 0.2%.

Miles explains

IBM alone has 97% of all visits. That’s a big lead, but one Google update can close it fast.

Yes. Every number on these pages comes from two CSV files, free to download.

sites.csv has one row per site: its Google US position for “ai rpa”, Tranco rank, Chrome UX tier, visits from Google worldwide and in the US, name searches, Domain Rating and referring domains, with the month each figure covers. market.csv has the monthly totals across the tracked sites: visits worldwide and in the US, name searches and referring domains. Blanks mean the source had no figure, never zero.
