The challenges of traditional ML
Machine learning (ML) is no longer a buzzword it’s a competitive advantage.Every day, businesses make countless decisions but without the right insights, even the best strategies can fall short. Machine learning helps turn data into smarter, faster decisions.
So, why are so many businesses still struggling to implement ML effectively?
Traditional ML development is complex, time consuming, and resource heavy. It requires specialized skills, extensive data preparation, and coding expertise—barriers that prevent businesses from fully realizing ML’s potential.
Think of building an ML model like constructing a house.
Data preparation: This is the foundation—cleaning and organizing data.
Model development: This is the blueprint—choosing right pre-processing steps and right algorithms suited for the usecase.
Deployment and integration: This is the final step—operationalizing ML for real-time business impact.
In a conventional setup, this process can take weeks. Companies face:
High technical barriers: Complex coding, statistical expertise, and ML frameworks
Lengthy data preparation: Tedious cleaning, transformation, and feature engineering
Deployment challenges: MLOps bottlenecks delaying real-world impact
Unless you have a team of data scientists, it can feel overwhelming.
How QuickML accelerates ML adoption for business
QuickML is the ultimate ML platform, enabling businesses to build advanced ML solutions without the usual complexity.
Effortless data integration: Connect seamlessly with Zoho CRM, Zoho Analytics, and external cloud platforms and databases.
No-code, drag-and-drop interface: Build end-to-end ML models without writing a single line of code.
Automated data analysis: Instantly uncover trends and insights.
One-click model deployment: Deploy ML models with a REST API for real-time predictions.
Advanced flexibility with Custom Code (Early Access)
For teams that need deeper control, QuickML introduces Custom Code operations, enabling developers to insert their own logic into the model training process using Python class-based templates.
Custom ML Transformation
Perform feature engineering tasks tailored to your use case, such as missing value imputation, encoding, and normalization. This uses a fit() method to learn parameters from training data and a transform() method to apply those parameters during prediction. Both methods accept and return a DataFrame.
Custom Algorithm
Define your own machine learning model and control its full lifecycle.
fit() for model training
predict() for generating predictions
get_evaluation_metrics() for computing evaluation metrics after training
The returned metrics are displayed in the model details page for performance analysis.
Supported Python libraries
Custom Code supports imports from libraries including:
NumPy, SciPy, Pandas, XGBoost, CatBoost, LightGBM, Scikit-learn, TensorFlow, Statsmodels, Transformers, Hugging Face Hub, Sentence Transformers, Imbalanced-learn, Hyperopt, SHAP, LIME, PMDARIMA, LightFM, LibRecommender, subseq, tld, tldextract, and patsy.
Seamless pipeline integration
Custom Code operations are part of the QuickML pipeline, allowing custom logic to be integrated into different stages of the machine learning lifecycle through predefined template classes.
For example, if a bank wanted to predict which clients would subscribe to a term deposit, they could upload their dataset, analyze it, build the model, and deploy it—all in one day. Normally, this would take a week or more, but QuickML supports all kinds of ML tasks, from classification to clustering, making it the perfect tool for data problems
This diagram showcases the end-to-end QuickML workflow, where users can seamlessly upload datasets, analyze data with automated insights, and build ML models using an intuitive drag-and-drop interface. It highlights integrations with Zoho CRM, Zoho Analytics, and cloud storages and databases culminating in one-click model deployment for real-time predictions.
Why businesses choose QuickML
Unlike traditional ML tools, QuickML is designed for business agility and impact:
No-code simplicity: Simplify ML adoption across teams.
Faster time-to-value: Deploy ML models in hours, not weeks.

ML is no longer just for tech wizards—with tools like QuickML, it’s becoming as common and user-friendly as spreadsheets.
QuickML is leading this change, making machine learning not just possible but practical for everyone.
Real-world success: Swiggy’s workforce analytics transformation
Swiggy, India’s leading food delivery platform, wanted to predict employee dissatisfaction to proactively address workforce engagement. Their People Analytics team faced challenges deploying traditional Python-based models due to MLOps constraints. Traditionally, this kind of project involved complicated Python scripts and was difficult to deploy, especially since MLOps wasn’t Swiggy's strength. That’s where QuickML stepped in.
QuickML enabled Swiggy to deploy their prediction model overnight, cutting weeks of manual effort, and integrate insights directly into their data mart, facilitating proactive HR interventions.
The result? Smarter intervention strategies and improved workforce management—all without a team of data scientists. With QuickML, Swiggy turned a long-standing bottleneck into a quick win overnight.
“Our People Analytics team at Swiggy had been trying to build the ‘unhappy employee’ prediction model using contemporary Python scripts and the like. However, the MLOps was a big challenge we were facing while deploying these solutions. QuickML, with its API capabilities, helped us deploy the model overnight and use the production data in our data mart for interventions.”
