Celonis, an enterprise AI company, was among the winners of the 2026 Microsoft Global ISV Partner of the Year Award. The winners were chosen from a pool of 4,500 nominations worldwide for organizations building customer solutions on Microsoft technology.
Celonis was an early launch partner of Microsoft Agent 365, a platform that lets companies manage AI agents across their organizations. Celonis adds operational context to this system so companies can track each agent’s reasoning and key performance indicators, like faster cycle times or lower claim costs. The integration also detects errors, such as agents repeatedly splitting and merging purchase orders, allowing teams to pause or adjust them.
“Almost every company is using AI. Very few are getting real returns,” said Marc Kinast, Celonis SVP of corporate development, said in a statement. “That gap isn’t about the model. It’s about redesigning your processes from the ground up with AI you can rely on. Microsoft brings trusted cloud and AI technologies. Celonis brings the platform people trust to transform and improve operations. Together, we’re helping companies reinvent the way they work.”
