Zoho CEO Mani Vembu states that while AI agents hold promise as digital workers capable of handling complex tasks with minimal human input, their mainstream adoption is slowed by the need for extensive customisation and training to fit specific business workflows, unlike simpler SaaS products which offer immediate value through self-service.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Enterprise Software.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to rethink how your AI tools get used beyond simple deployment. Training AI agents on your workflows is the new barrier to value, not just model quality, so focus on customisation and onboarding to win customers.
