Celonis Process Intelligence APIs: Get the process intelligence you need in the apps you know

Celonis continues to bring the power of Process Intelligence to people across the enterprise—data analysts, developers, and business decision makers alike—with the Celonis Process Intelligence API. Along with AgentC, a suite of AI agent tools, integrations, and partnerships, the API feeds Process Intelligence from the Celonis Process Intelligence Graph directly into the systems, collaboration tools, and AI solutions used across the enterprise.

“The Process Intelligence API highlights how Celonis is reinventing process mining by making this critical technology more accessible and open to the entire organization,” said Mohamed Karous, Director of Product Marketing. “With AgentC and the API, AI gets the process data and business context it needs to understand how the business runs and how to make it run better—so our customers can maximize the ROI of their AI deployments.”

Celonis first announced the Intelligence API at Celosphere 2022. It became generally available in March 2023. And during the Celonis:Next 2025 product showcase, the company introduced an extended Process Intelligence API that makes it even easier to securely share Process Intelligence context, metrics, and recommended actions with AI platforms such as Microsoft Copilot Studio, Amazon Bedrock, or Salesforce Agentforce.
