Celonis Customers Unlock $8.1 Billion in Returns with Process Intelligence

Data processing firm Celonis said its customers have generated over $8.1 billion in total value using enterprise AI powered by Process Intelligence, the company revealed at its annual Celosphere 2025 event.

The company named 120 ‘Value Champions’, each realising more than $10 million in measurable gains by embedding AI into daily operations through the Celonis Process Intelligence platform.

Co-founder and co-CEO Alex Rinke said many companies fail to see returns from AI because they treat it as a technology rather than a strategic discipline. “We give their AI the context it needs. We guide them to deploy it in the right places. And we enable them to make it work with everything else they’re doing,” he said.

Celonis’ Process Intelligence platform builds a living digital twin of enterprise operations—the Process Intelligence Graph—enabling companies to analyse, design, and run autonomous processes and AI agents across departments and systems. Its open platform is extended by a growing ecosystem of service and technology partners offering AI-driven, composable solutions.

Celonis highlighted results from key customers. Mercedes-Benz improved on-time delivery and sped up decision-making. Vinmar turned its $3 billion order-to-cash process into a fully automated, intelligent operation. Uniper, in partnership with Celonis and Microsoft, scaled AI across its operations for end-to-end orchestration.

Microsoft’s Charles Lamanna said the collaboration with Celonis is “redefining what’s possible for enterprise operations”, combining process intelligence with Microsoft AI and Copilot to create adaptive, intelligent systems. Uniper CIO Hans Pezold added that the joint solution is “our foundation for AI success”.
