A taskforce of agents working together

5 steps are all it takes to get your agent up and running.

1

Define your agent's role and purpose

Define who your agent is and what it's here to do. You also choose the AI model that powers the agent, whether that's a Zoho-hosted model or your preferred provider through our bring your own key (BYOK) model. Your agent can be built your way.

2

Ground your agent in your business context

Control how your agent thinks by grounding it in your own knowledge sources. Upload documents in multiple formats or pull content directly from Zoho WorkDrive and Zoho Learn. On top of that, real-time web scraping lets your agent dynamically pull live data from online sources.

3

Equip your agent with the right tools

This is your agent's action layer. Choose from ready-to-use system tools with predefined APIs that connect seamlessly with Zoho and ManageEngine services or build your own custom tools to integrate with the software your team already relies on.

Set the rules your agent should live by

Keep your agent on track with built-in and custom guardrails. System-enabled guardrails provide a baseline of responsible behavior out of the box. Layer on your own custom rules so the agent always operates within your boundaries.

Track every move that your agent makes

Get full agent-level visibility with dedicated session tracking that monitors success rates, tool calls, LLM calls, and token usage in real time. Easier debugging, simpler monitoring, and clear session-level logs mean you can spot issues quicker, fix them faster, and keep your agent performing at its best.

On demand when your team needs it. In the background when your workflow calls for it.

Getting things done with Zia Agents is simple. Ask when you need help, or set your agents up to act at the right touchpoints. However the task comes in, Zia Agents are ready to take it on.

On demand, right when you need help

Ask Zia is where your teams already go for answers. Now it is also where they get things done. Just type what you need and the right agent picks up the task.

From triggering a SecOps Assistant to scan a suspicious URL to asking the Entra ID User Manager to update a user's profile, Zia agents are only a prompt away.

Automatically, at the right touchpoint

Some tasks don't have to wait for a prompt. They just need to happen at the right moment.

Your service desk resolves issues efficiently with Zia Agents. The process can include picking up a new ticket, categorizing it, and sending a first response, through to automatically posting detailed feedback notes within each ticket for continuous service delivery improvement.

Outsource the grind to Zia Agents

With the Zia Agent Studio, the possibilities are endless and your team can build an agent for virtually any use case that your ITSM demands. Here are some of the use cases where Zia Agents can come in handy.

L1 Support Agent

Provides first-level support for Tier 1 tickets by analyzing the request details, surfs though the KB in ServiceDesk Plus, and communicates the solution to the requester via email.

Request Resolution Agent

Analyzes the tickets marked as resolved or closed, generates a summary that captures details on the issue, the root cause and findings, the resolution steps taken, and the preventive measures. The agent then adds the summary as a resolution within the ticket.

Incident Review Summarizer

Analyzes the details within the incident tickets that are marked as resolved or closed, and generates a PIR that captures everything that happened throughout the incident's timeline. The agent then adds the report as a note to the ticket.

Multi-agent orchestration so your teams can sit back and let Zia Agents do their thing

Teams working in silos are often counterproductive. This applies to AI agents too.

When a single agent carries too much responsibility, context gets lost, prompts become harder to manage, and complex workflows start to break down.

Multi-agent orchestration fixes this by bringing specialization into the picture.

A master agent takes the lead
Routes tasks to a network of purpose-built subagents
Each subagent focuses on doing its specific job
Together they work through complex workflows from start to finish
