Software company Zammo.ai has scaled its platform for creating AI agents by moving to a Microsoft Azure-managed application delivered via Microsoft Marketplace.
“Our goal is to remove all complexities that involve using AI,” said Guy Tonye, head of engineering at Zammo.ai. “Anyone in an organisation can build an agent for anything they need.”
Zammo.ai set out to remove barriers – such as technical expertise, security concerns and unclear return on investment – with a no-code platform that enables business users to create AI agents using natural language.
The agents can handle customer enquiries, automate workflows and deliver insights from complex datasets. Zammo.ai has already reported rapid deployment, with customers going live in as little as one to two days.
Zammo.ai adopted Microsoft Azure as its core cloud platform because it provides the infrastructure, security and AI services needed to support enterprise deployment at scale. “Azure provides a different set of components that we can leverage that allow us to provide every piece that is needed to implement AI solutions,” said Tonye.
Initially, Zammo.ai operated as a traditional software-as-a-service offering hosted within its own Azure tenant. However, this created friction for customers, particularly around data ownership and security. The company addressed this by shifting to a managed application model delivered through Microsoft Marketplace, enabling deployment directly within customer Azure environments.
“Originally, customers really loved Zammo, but they always had one major reservation: their data lived in Zammo’s tenant,” said Tonye. “By moving to a managed application, we were now living inside the customer tenant, and that was really key.”
The move to Microsoft Marketplace also streamlined procurement and deployment, reduced security review cycles and enabled one-click installation for customers already operating within Azure.
“Microsoft Marketplace was the number one accelerator for pushing our business forward,” said Stacey Kyler, managing director at Zammo.ai, explaining that as the company recorded revenue growth of more than six times following its Marketplace launch.
With the managed application model, Zammo.ai can now deploy its full AI infrastructure into customer environments in as little as an hour, significantly reducing onboarding time and accelerating time to value.
“Once we get our infrastructure deployed, customers can implement their agents in a few hours,” said Tonye. “It became much quicker to go from interest, to lead, to customer, to actual business solution in production.”
