1. Get Started Quickly: How to Build Your First Smart Agent
is a no-code platform. That means you create agents via drag-and-drop—no technical expertise or developer support needed.
Here’s how it works:
Choose a template or start from a blank agent model
Define which tasks and events the agent should respond to
Use the user interface to configure inputs and actions
A simple agent can be built in just a few minutes—for example, to automatically assign new leads to specific sales teams.
2. Intelligent Data Linking for Better Results
Agents become especially powerful when they can access the right information. Zia Agent Studio offers various options for this:
Connect to modules such as Leads, Deals, Quotes, or Contacts
Access files, wikis, or structured content from documents
Integrate external tools and services via URL or API
For instance, you can develop an “Onboarding Agent” that automatically guides new customers through specific steps.
3. Prebuilt or Custom – You Decide
To help you get started quickly, Zia Agent Studio provides ready-to-use templates for common business processes, such as:
Sales assistance
Quote evaluation
Lead qualification
Customer communication
These templates can be used as-is or customized to your needs. Alternatively, you can develop your own agents and publish them on the marketplace so other teams or locations can access them.
