In their own words
BotCity
BotCity provides visibility and control for governing Python scripts across enterprise environments. Its Sentinel product monitors script executions on company endpoints, adding execution context, alerts, policies, and audit evidence. Orchestrator centralizes scheduling, monitoring, queue management, alerts, and control for code-based automations. BotCity Runner can run automations on virtual or physical machines, containers, or AWS Lambda, while Studio supports Python, Java, and JavaScript automation code and includes computer vision tools for inspecting interface elements. Orchestrator can trigger bots through APIs and send real-time notifications through Teams, email, and WhatsApp. Documented plugins and integrations include AWS, Google Suite, Microsoft Office, Slack, Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, and GitHub Actions. Orchestrator is cloud-based; agents and automations run in the customer's infrastructure behind its firewall and security layers. BotCity offers a free Community plan and a 30-day trial. After the trial, Community accounts are limited to one automation, one Runner, and 10 tasks per day; several features are disabled. The platform is aimed at developers and technology teams building enterprise automations.
