AutoHotkey Community

I downloaded the Community Edition of StepwiseRPA the other day, and so far it's great. (Apparently I was the first person to download it.)

It has one of the nicest UIs of any of the platforms. The Excel activities are really extensive.
You can run functions from .NET DLLs (maybe non-managed code too if it has a manifest, don't know yet), including functions from AutoHotkey.Interop.dll. You can run AHK scripts using VBS and AutoHotkey.dll. It uses AutoIt internally also.

@Joe Glines, I bet you'll like this one. With one click you can copy a shortcut to run your robot from the command line. Example: Here's a link to an introductory video: Getting Started Stepwise Video

I believe this is the product of single developer! Really impressive, that. It was created to be used in-house, I'm pretty sure, but it's now opened up for public download.

Sounds pretty cool! Thanks, we'll check it out!

StepwiseRPA is getting better and better. 'Dynamic Actions' can now load either AutoHotkey.Interop.dll or sharpAHK.dll. With not much effort you can run AHK from StepwiseRPA and pass data back and forth.

@Joe Glines, as you're a data scientist I think you'll appreciate this new video on connecting StepwiseRPA to MS SQL Server. In the video the developer demonstrates using Azure, but notes that it'll work with a local MS SQL server as well. It also shows off how easy it is to work with variables in StepwiseRPA.

That looked painful to me. I think most data scientists would just use Python or R. In my experience databases aren't very helpful in analysis (but obviously you need to get your data somehow)

Python and R for sure.
