Zoho has introduced Zia LLM, its proprietary large language model designed specifically for business applications, marking a significant step forward in enterprise artificial intelligence for the Indian SaaS giant. Announced at Zoholics India, Zia LLM is built entirely on NVIDIA´s artificial intelligence infrastructure and aims to address a spectrum of operational needs — from summarizing complex data and generating code to smart information retrieval.
The Zia LLM family features three distinct models, scaling up to 7 billion parameters. This modular approach lets businesses select the right balance among speed, cost, and computational performance to suit their requirements. Unlike conventional cloud-based artificial intelligence offerings, Zia LLM is deployed on Zoho´s own servers. This architecture is designed to ensure enterprise customers benefit from enhanced data privacy and control, a key concern in the rapidly evolving artificial intelligence market where sensitive business information is at stake.
Alongside the core large language model, Zoho has bolstered its suite with several complementary upgrades. Notably, there is a new Hindi-English speech recognition tool to better support India´s multilingual landscape. Businesses also get no-code artificial intelligence agent development tools, expanding accessibility for users lacking technical expertise. Over 25 pre-built Zia agents come bundled, enabling rapid deployment of intelligence across workflows. These combined features underscore Zoho’s ambition to deliver practical, privacy-respecting artificial intelligence that´s locally controlled and readily customizable for Indian and global enterprises.
