Camunda

What Camunda does

Camunda is a Berlin-headquartered, venture-backed enterprise software company founded in 2008 that provides an agentic process orchestration platform used by 750+ enterprises, including 12 of the 15 leading global banks. Its core product, Camunda 8, is a cloud-native orchestration platform built on the Zeebe workflow engine that executes BPMN-defined processes spanning AI agents, people, and external systems. The platform differentiates through externalized guardrails (policies, approvals, and escalation paths built into the process) and per-step autonomy controls that blend deterministic straight-through processing with agent reasoning for exceptions, with full execution traceability for compliance.

On top of Camunda 8, the company launched ProcessOS at CamundaCon 2026 (May 2026), an AI-powered intelligence layer that uses natural-language outcome definitions to automatically generate, deploy, and optimize business processes; ProcessOS runs natively on AWS with deep Amazon Bedrock integration. Supporting modules include Camunda Modeler (BPMN authoring) and Cawemo (collaborative modeling), while Camunda 7 remains a legacy product line with a documented migration path. The platform is certified under ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, TISAX, GDPR, and Cloud Security Alliance, supporting procurement in regulated industries.

Camunda generates revenue primarily through quote-based enterprise subscriptions sold via a sales-led motion with multi-year contracts (the €1M+ customer cohort grew 83% YoY in 2025), supplemented by a Global Partner Program (partner-sourced revenue grew 63% in 2025) and AWS marketplace distribution. A free Non-Commercial License supports developer adoption and community footprint. Vertical focus is concentrated in banking and financial services (Barclays, ČSOB, PKO Leasing), insurance, identity verification (AU10TIX), telecommunications (Deutsche Telekom, BT), and large software/SaaS firms (Atlassian, Intuit). FY2024 ARR was $68M, more than double the $32.2M reported in 2023.
