Zoho Analytics Evolves Into Trusted Analytics Platform for AI Agents

At a glance

Zoho is turning its Zoho Analytics tool into an analytics platform for AI agents, which are AI programs that carry out tasks on their own. The goal is to help AI understand a company's data and business context.

Key points

1. 1

   The update adds a semantic layer, which works as a business glossary for AI, and an ontology layer, which maps how business items relate to each other.

2. 2

   Ask Zia, a conversational AI, coordinates several specialized AI agents for analysis, visualization, data preparation, and coding.

3. 3

   Support for the Model Context Protocol (a standard way to connect external tools to AI) lets agents work with other tools.

4. 4

   Zoho Analytics now has over 500 existing connectors plus more than 30 new ones for importing data.

Why it matters

For companies to trust AI answers, the AI needs business context and controls over its data, and this update addresses both.
