Get More Out of Your Processes
The more complex the process, the more the benefits add up.
What is Process Mining?
Process mining lets you discover and visualize your processes by analyzing your data and desktop user interactions. This process produces detailed insights that reveal your top opportunities for process optimization while enabling real-time process monitoring and predictions. Process mining aims to improve an entire process.
What is Task Mining?
Task mining focuses on the steps and actions within each task within a process, helping you improve efficiency and performance at the human task level.
How Process Mining and Task Mining Work Together
Process and task mining work together to enable you to track efficiency and identify opportunities for improvement. Process mining focuses on end-to-end process optimization, whereas task mining focuses on the individual tasks that ladder up to that larger process. They also differ in the types of data they utilize for their analysis. Task mining uses desktop user interaction data, like activity logs or screen recordings, while process mining uses system event logs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Process Mining and Task Mining
What is process mining used for?
Process mining is used to discover, monitor, and optimize real business processes by extracting insights from event logs in your existing systems. Organizations use process mining to pinpoint bottlenecks, surface compliance gaps, and identify which workflows are the strongest candidates for intelligent automation, eliminating the guesswork from process improvement decisions. (Link: Robotic Process Automation)
What is the difference between process mining and task mining?
Process mining analyzes system event logs to map and optimize end-to-end workflows. Task mining zooms in on individual human steps within those workflows by capturing desktop user interactions like activity logs and screen recordings. Together, process mining and task mining give you a complete, accurate picture of how work happens across your organization, from the macro level down to the individual task.
How does process mining support intelligent automation?
Process mining identifies which processes are the best candidates for intelligent automation by revealing where inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and high-volume repetitive tasks are concentrated. Rather than automating blindly, you can target the highest-value opportunities first, so automation investments deliver measurable results faster. (Link: Intelligent Automation Solutions)
