Leading agentic orchestration platform ranks among the world's top private cloud companies

Workato®, the leader in agentic orchestration, has been named to the Forbes 2025 Cloud 100, the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world, published by Forbes in partnership with Bessemer Venture Partners.

“Being included in the Forbes 2025 Cloud 100 is a reflection of the incredible strides our team has made over the past year, empowering enterprises to tap into agentic possibilities and drive innovation,” said Vijay Tella, co-founder and CEO of Workato. “This past year has sparked significant transformation, making it more important than ever to achieve efficient growth and deliver measurable business outcomes with AI. We’re honored to be recognized alongside our peers, especially the many customers and partners who share this achievement with us.”

For the tenth consecutive year, the Cloud 100 reviews submissions from hundreds of cloud startups and private companies each year. The Cloud 100 evaluation process involved ranking companies across four factors: market leadership (35%), estimated valuation (30%), operating metrics (20%), and people & culture (15%). For market leadership, the Cloud 100 enlists the help of a judging panel of public cloud company CEOs who assist in evaluating and ranking their private company peers.

“For the last decade, the Forbes Cloud 100 list has recognized the most innovative private cloud companies in the world, and this year’s standouts are among the most impressive we’ve ever seen,” said Richard Nieva, the Forbes editor of the Cloud 100. “Our honorees highlight the massive sea change that AI has brought to the enterprise, with sky-high growth and valuations.”

“As we mark the 10th year of the Cloud 100 with our 2025 rankings, we celebrate a highly competitive cohort of companies that, for the first time, collectively exceed $1 trillion in value,” said Elliott Robinson, partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. “The cloud is in a period of rapid, AI-driven transformation, with this year’s cohort demonstrating how AI is fundamentally reshaping how the best cloud companies grow, scale, and compete.”

The Forbes 2025 Cloud 100 and 20 Rising Stars lists are published online at www.forbes.com/cloud100. Highlights of the list appear in the August/September 2025 issue of Forbes magazine.

This year, the CEOs of The Cloud 100 and the 20 Rising Stars companies will be honored with a digital content launch, as well as at the exclusive Cloud 100 Celebration hosted by Bessemer Venture Partners and Forbes. A special thank you to the event sponsors, including Cloud 100 founding partner Salesforce Ventures, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Bank of America, Deloitte, Goldman Sachs, Goodwin, HSBC, J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and Nasdaq.
