Pega Platform is built for large enterprises that run high-volume, regulated work such as fraud disputes, claims and customer service. It combines workflow automation, case management and decisioning, and Pega positions it as the layer that orchestrates AI agents, people and systems with consistent rules. Pega Blueprint is the most useful starting point for operations teams: you describe a process and it produces a build-ready application design, which Pega says let Proximus prototype a transformed process in 15 minutes. The latest release is Pega Infinity '26, and Pega was named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for BOAT Platforms. Its platform page also cites 95% of frauds and disputes automated with straight through processing on Pega. The trade-offs are cost visibility and effort: there is no public price list, and larger builds usually involve certified developers or a partner. Mid-size teams will move faster with Appian or Creatio.
