Krista Intelligent Automation is a cloud platform from Krista Software for mid-market and enterprise teams coordinating people, business systems and AI across departments. Its no-code conversational workflow and agent construction supports document management, customer service, HR onboarding and operational processes. Knowledge, conversation, document, machine-learning and orchestration agents let teams design processes that combine automated steps with human decisions.

The platform’s standout capability is governed document and decision automation. Machine-learning models classify documents and extract fields, while confidence scoring and validation help identify records that need review. Human-in-the-loop controls route exceptions by role, and machine-learning decision or anomaly-detection steps can guide subsequent actions. Krista can then update ERP, accounting and other connected systems, keeping process execution tied to operational records. This combination suits teams handling variable documents or decisions where automatic processing needs a defined review path.

Governance is built into the workflow lifecycle through audit trails and Draft, Test and Live stages. AI policy controls, a company-owned knowledge record and leadership briefs support oversight across business users and administrators. Compliance coverage includes SOC2 and ISO27001. Pricing uses a contact-sales model, with Foundation offered as a fixed package rather than a self-serve public tier. Krista is a fit for organizations that need conversational automation with approvals, traceability and cross-system updates; teams seeking transparent online pricing, non-cloud deployment or round-the-clock support should consider alternatives.
