Description: APPN Appian November 11, 2025

Appian Corporation (NASDAQ:APPN) is a U.S.-based software vendor that delivers the Appian Platform – an integrated low-code automation suite combining AI, process automation, data fabric, and process-mining capabilities. The platform is marketed to a broad set of verticals, including financial services, government, life sciences, insurance, manufacturing, energy, healthcare, telecom, and transportation, and the company supplements its SaaS offering with professional services and customer support. Appian operates globally across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America, with its headquarters in McLean, Virginia.

Key recent metrics (FY 2024) show annual recurring revenue (ARR) of approximately $1.5 billion, representing a 32 % year-over-year growth rate, and a net retention rate of 119 %, indicating strong upsell and cross-sell momentum. The low-code market is projected by Gartner to expand at a 23 % CAGR through 2027, driven by enterprise demand for rapid digitization and cost-containment – a macro trend that underpins Appian’s growth outlook. However, the company’s profitability remains modest (adjusted EBITDA margin ~5 %), reflecting ongoing investment in R&D and sales expansion; any slowdown in enterprise IT budgets could pressure margins.
