Nintex Debuts Solution Studio, Enabling Rapid Development Of Custom Business Solutions
Nintex, a global leader in AI-powered process automation, today announced Solution Studio — a portal that helps IT and business teams easily design and build solutions that automate the unique business process challenges of their organizations. Solution Studio helps eliminate software sprawl by letting teams build custom solutions around their own systems, approval flows, data, and business logic — instead of stitching together multiple off-the-shelf apps.
Nintex also announced its next pre-built solution, Nintex Employee Onboarding, a customizable solution that automates the common series of actions taken by hiring managers, HR, finance, and IT to welcome and ramp up new employees.
'Organizations continue to manage many business processes manually or with a mix of disconnected software solutions, which is hindering their ability to drive efficiency and productivity,' said Maureen Fleming, Program VP, Worldwide Intelligent Process Automation Market Research and Advisory Service at IDC. 'Custom solutions built on top of a process automation platform provide mid-market businesses and departments within enterprise organizations with a simple interface that allows them to easily solve complex business challenges without manual processes and multiple pieces of software.'
Businesses are increasingly focused on operational efficiency through work and resource optimization. As a result, IT teams are being charged with consolidating their technology investments and replacing off-the-shelf software solutions with custom-built applications for business needs. In the past, building custom solutions has been cost and resource-intensive. With AI powering low-code and process automation, IT teams can now easily and cost-effectively build custom solutions in a single platform.
Easily create powerful solutions tailored to automate business processes
Nintex Solution Studio allows IT teams to quickly and easily build solutions tailored to their unique business needs, removing the need for multiple off-the-shelf applications and allowing organizations to easily automate common business processes. Specific features include:
Configurable and reusable modules: Create and configure common modules, like 'approval flows' or 'generating a document' once, then apply them across teams, systems, and processes without rebuilding business logic or custom coding.
Unified development environment: Design and deploy full-stack solutions leveraging application development, document generation, e-signature, and workflow automation all within a single portal.
Enhanced governance and control: Maintain visibility, track usage, enforce standards, and manage access across an organization from a single dashboard for solution development.
"We work with clients on a daily basis to effectively leverage, optimize, and strategically implement purpose-built Nintex solutions,' said Bill Vencil, Associate Director, Protiviti Software Services. 'We see a lot of opportunities and business cases in the marketplace for Solution Studio since it accelerates implementation of solutions to complex processes."
Pre-built solutions that quickly solve critical business challenges
Organizations often face hurdles when automating complex yet essential cross-functional processes like employee onboarding, including limited IT resources, costly development, and lengthy implementation cycles. Pre-built solutions provide a cost-effective, efficient, and tailored way for organizations to solve specific business use cases.
'Efficiency is top of mind for organizations today, which has led many to consolidate their business application portfolio by building custom solutions leveraging AI and low-code platforms,' said Niranjan Vijayaragavan, Chief Product Officer at Nintex. 'Our partners and customers can now easily build purpose-built solutions or leverage pre-built solutions that quickly drive value by automating complex business processes.'

Nintex Survey Finds Australian IT Leaders Embrace AI As SaaS Sprawl Undermines Productivity
Press Release – Nintex While most acknowledge the problem 93% say that addressing SaaS sprawl should be a top priority more than half (58%) admit their current orchestration processes are ineffective. This was the highest rate across all countries surveyed, and the … Australian mid-market organisations are contending with a growing software sprawl crisis, with 49% juggling between 51 and 200 SaaS tools, and half adding a new tool every two to four weeks. To overcome this, Australians are turning to AI, with 92% deploying AI to detect redundant apps, automate integrations, and optimise tool usage — a rate higher than any other nation surveyed. These findings are from the 2025 SaaS Sprawl Snapshot, a study* commissioned by Nintex, a global leader in AI-powered process automation and application development, which surveyed 2,000 IT decision-makers across four countries. The Australian findings reveal a wave of unbridled software proliferation that is slowing workflows, increasing compliance risk, and consuming IT resources at an unsustainable rate. 'In Australia, software sprawl is holding organisations back and taking the wind out of their sails. Budgets are overflowing, compliance risks are piling up, and scaling feels like sailing with a dropped anchor,' said Keith Payne, Regional Vice President, APAC at Nintex. 'Nearly every mid-market organisation knows it's a problem, but with IT teams stretched thin, fixing it can feel like trying to bail out a sinking ship with a teacup.' While most acknowledge the problem — 93% say that addressing SaaS sprawl should be a top priority — more than half (58%) admit their current orchestration processes are ineffective. This was the highest rate across all countries surveyed, and the impact is being felt. The vast majority (91%) report a moderate-to-major financial impact, while 41% cite rising security and compliance risks, and over a third (34%) say sprawl is directly limiting their ability to scale. Despite this, 77% place full responsibility for managing SaaS sprawl on IT teams that are often under-resourced and stretched thin, without the time, budget, or headcount to implement a cohesive strategy. 'Many local organisations are layering new software over old processes in a race to fill capability gaps with band-aid fixes,' said Payne. 'It might solve the problem of the day, but over time it's creating deeper disconnections between systems, teams, and workflows.' While the report found that Australia leads other countries in leveraging AI to overcome software sprawl, the path to resolution will require more than just AI. The report highlights deeper systemic issues, including a lack of staff enablement. Only 34% provide training to help employees effectively use software, a critical gap that contributes to shelfware and shadow IT. 'Let's be clear, no amount of software can save a broken process,' Payne said. 'If organisations keep piling on tools without fixing the foundations, they're not transforming, they're treading water with a sinking stack.'

Ataccama ONE brings document AI to Snowflake for better data
Ataccama has announced the integration of its unified data trust platform, Ataccama ONE, with Document AI on the Snowflake Marketplace, allowing businesses to transform unstructured content into structured data for analytics and artificial intelligence applications. The announcement from Ataccama enables enterprises to extract, structure, govern, and monitor the quality of unstructured data, making a greater proportion of their information usable for analytics, AI, and business operations. With the majority of enterprise information now classed as unstructured data and continuing to grow rapidly, many organisations struggle to manage this resource effectively. Industry research from IDC indicates that unstructured data accounts for most enterprise data and is expanding by more than 55% annually. According to market findings, 95% of businesses face difficulties in managing their unstructured data, with over half citing it as the most challenging type of information to govern. Unstructured data frequently remains siloed and difficult to leverage, creating operational risk and impacting the reliability of AI systems as these systems increasingly rely on such data for powering large language models and retrieval-augmented generation applications. Through the integration of Ataccama ONE and Document AI within the Snowflake environment, enterprises can convert documents such as contracts, invoices, and PDFs into structured records. Natural language prompts—such as, "What is the effective date of the contract?"—are processed by the Arctic-TILT large language model developed by Snowflake, generating structured outputs stored directly in Snowflake tables. Ataccama ONE then connects to the resulting data tables to profile the data, perform quality checks, and manage governance policies on the structured outputs. The system also allows companies to follow the data through analytics, reporting, and AI workflows by capturing lineage at the table level. Additional metadata can be added from the original documents to increase traceability where required. This process aims to reduce manual intervention, build trust in the data, and enable repeatable workflows for business teams. Speaking to the importance of unlocking value from unstructured data, Sam Wong, Senior Director of Data & AI at a global beverage company, said: "Unstructured data is an untapped data source as real business context lives there, but it's also the hardest to govern. Documents, contracts, and communications contain the terms, conditions, and risks that structured systems miss. Without a way to extract, validate, and manage that information at scale, AI lacks the foundation it needs to be reliable. With Ataccama ONE and Document AI inside Snowflake, organizations can turn thousands of documents into trusted, structured data. That will give us improved analytics, enhanced data quality, and a better foundation for powerful and trustworthy AI." This integration offers several capabilities for users. Companies can extract structured data from documents using natural language, specifying prompts such as "What is the payment term?" to convert unstructured information into structured outputs without the need for custom code. The extracted data is immediately available for use in reporting, analytics, and AI activities, as it is saved directly into Snowflake tables, ready for consumption by business intelligence tools and model pipelines without further transformation. Ataccama ONE provides automated profiling and rule-based validation to monitor the quality of unstructured data on a continual basis, assisting teams in detecting inconsistencies and managing risks early. Document AI models can be trained and reused within Snowsight, allowing for standardised extraction across various document types at scale, including contracts, invoices, and policies. All processes, validation, and governance are performed natively in Snowflake, reducing integration complexity and improving security. Jay Limburn, Chief Product Officer at Ataccama, said: "Unstructured data remains a black box for most organizations, even as it becomes critical for AI and business operations. Without a way to structure, govern, and trust that information, enterprises risk missing the full value of their data. Ataccama ONE combines data quality, governance, observability, lineage, and master data management in a single platform and now extends those capabilities to unstructured content. This allows organizations to improve trust and confidence in all their data, structured and unstructured alike, and build a stronger foundation for AI, analytics, and operational decision-making." Kieran Kennedy, Vice President, Data Cloud Products at Snowflake, said: "Ataccama's presence on Snowflake Marketplace reinforces the value of our integrated platform approach that allows our partners to bring their innovative solutions to market within the Snowflake environment. With this solution, joint customers have the power to streamline document extraction, ensure data quality, and accelerate insight delivery, all within a governed and scalable environment."
