The Covid-19 pandemic might turn out to be a game-changer for the RPA (robotic process automation) solution providers as industries, especially manufacturing, accelerate the use of bots for repetitive tasks. 

San Jose, California based automation solutions provider Automation Anywhere claimed in a report in early 2020 that 85% of the RPA still remains untapped. Meanwhile, research firm Gartner predicts that the RPA market was worth $1.3 billion in 2019, up from $846 million in 2018, and might well go on to reach $2.4 billion by 2020.
