SHIRABE vs. process-mining platforms: scope, cost and evidence.

SHIRABE is the diagnostic bridge before selection or implementation—not a replacement for Microsoft, IBM, Celonis, SAP, UiPath or another platform.

Not apples-to-apples. SHIRABE sells a bounded diagnosis and decision package. Most options below sell software licenses, automation capacity or continuing process-management environments.
Option Public price signal Best suited for Bilingual diagnostic Evidence package Continuing platform

“Not found” means the capability was not identified in the reviewed public package; it does not mean the vendor or a partner cannot provide it. Prices and capabilities may change. Trademarks belong to their respective owners. Software, implementation and diagnostic services are not directly equivalent.

Decision guide

Choose diagnosis when the problem is not yet stable enough to automate.

Choose SHIRABE first

When evidence is fragmented, ownership is unclear and you need a bounded baseline before buying.

Choose a platform

When event data, owners, implementation capacity and a continuing operating model are already defined.

Choose both, in sequence

Use SHIRABE to establish the baseline and selection criteria, then implement the platform that fits.
