Kognitos Named Exemplary Provider and #1 Overall in 2026 ISG Buyers Guide for Automation and Orchestration

SAN JOSE, Calif., March 24, 2026Kognitos, the pioneer of neurosymbolic AI for business automation, today announced it has been recognized as an Exemplary Provider in the 2026 ISG Buyers Guide™ for Automation and Orchestration Emerging Providers, published by ISG Research. In an evaluation of emerging providers, Kognitos was one of only three vendors to achieve this designation and was named a Leader across all evaluated categories, including Overall, Platform, Product Experience, Capability and Customer Experience.

The recognition comes as enterprises look beyond traditional automation approaches that are often brittle, complex to maintain and heavily reliant on technical resources. Kognitos is helping redefine this category around automation that business users can build, operate and trust, using a model built on plain English that enables teams to design, operate and evolve workflows without writing code.

Key highlights from the ISG Buyers Guide

• Exemplary Provider designation: Kognitos was one of only three providers recognized as Exemplary, reflecting above-median performance in both Product Experience and Customer Experience.
• Leader across all categories: Kognitos achieved Leader status in Overall, Platform, Product Experience, Capability and Customer Experience.
• Strength in Customer Experience: Kognitos’ strongest performance was in Customer Experience (78.3%), reflecting its focus on making automation accessible to business users while delivering the reliability required in enterprise environments.
• Balanced platform and product performance: Strong results in Platform and Product Experience reflect Kognitos’ ability to deliver automation that is both accessible to business users and robust enough for enterprise deployment.
• A new approach to automation: Kognitos enables organizations to automate in plain English, replacing fragile, code-based workflows while improving governance, maintainability and control.

“Most companies are discovering that scaling AI is far harder than experimenting with it. They’re dealing with brittle automations, unpredictable outputs and systems that are difficult to maintain or govern. What we’re doing with Kognitos is fundamentally different. By enabling automation in plain English and grounding it in deterministic logic, we give businesses something they can actually trust and operate at scale. This recognition from ISG Research reflects that shift from experimentation to real, production-ready automation.”

Binny Gill, CEO and Co-founder of Kognitos
