Zoho + AI

AI that works inside the apps your team already uses

Zoho states that Zia's AI features are part of its software rather than separate AI licences. We decide with you where AI earns its place, configure it, and keep people in charge of decisions.

Zia inside Zoho

Zoho describes Zia Skills as AI features threaded through its apps. We switch on the ones that help and tune them to your data.

Agents and automation

Zoho lists Zia Agents for specific business processes. We combine them with workflows, Deluge and n8n so routine steps run themselves.

Answers from your data

Zoho describes Zia Chat as an AI interface that understands context and answers. We prepare your data so the answers are worth trusting.

Tell us where your GCC is today, from first hires to a running centre. We come back with a stack and a sequence, not a sales script.

How we work

The same five steps for every project, whatever the size. You approve the scope in writing before anything is built.

  1. Discover

    We interview the people who do the work, review your current tools and documents, and list the problems worth solving first.

  2. Design

    We recommend the applications, data structure, automation and integrations, and agree scope, timeline and responsibilities in writing.

  3. Build

    We configure the system in a test environment, build integrations and automation, and review progress with you at fixed points.

  4. Test and train

    We test with your real scenarios and data, fix what we find, and train each group of users on the tasks they will perform.

  5. Launch and support

    We manage go-live, watch the first weeks closely, and move to support and maintenance on agreed terms.

About Straits Partners

Frequently asked questions

What does Straits Partners do?

We deliver Zoho + AI solutions: consulting and implementation, Zia and automation, data migration, custom development with Deluge and APIs, training and ongoing support.

Is Straits Partners a Zoho Authorized Partner?

Yes. Straits Partners LLP is a Zoho Authorised Partner and a Zoho Finance Premium Partner, and also holds the Zoho Creator Registered Partner badge. We plan, implement and support Zoho applications for clients; we are an independent partner, not Zoho Corporation. The official badges are shown on this page.

What does Zoho Finance Premium Partner mean?

It is a partner status from Zoho for its finance applications, such as Zoho Books, Zoho Expense and Zoho Inventory. For you it means the team setting up your accounting, invoicing and stock control works on these products every day, with a finance and audit background behind the design.

Which countries does Straits Partners serve as a Zoho partner?

We work from offices in Coimbatore, Pune, Kolkata, Jakarta and Tokyo and serve clients in India, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore and the UAE (Dubai). Working hours and language are agreed with each client at the start of a project, and every engagement follows the same scoping, build and hand-over steps wherever the client is based.

What tech stack does a GCC in India need?

For business software, we start most GCCs on Zoho Workplace, CRM, Books, Desk, Projects, People, Payroll and Analytics, with Zia for MIS. That is two vendors: Zoho for the software and Straits Partners to implement and run it. Hardware, connectivity and engineering tools are separate.

How do you use AI with Zoho?

We switch on and tune Zia inside your Zoho apps, design automations and agents that take routine work off your team, and connect AI tools to Zoho through APIs where it makes sense. See the Zoho + AI page.

How do you quote a project?

In three separate parts: the Zoho licence, billed by Zoho; our implementation work; and annual maintenance. We share figures on request after scoping. Taxes are extra.
