What is Skedda?
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.
What is Zoho Projects?
Zoho Projects makes time tracking the product's center of gravity, and lets Zia build the schema.
Three of the last six releases touch time logs: a unified grid view, workflow automation with rules and webhooks, and Zia auto-filling weekly hours from assigned tasks. Alongside that, Zia has moved past suggestion into construction — users can now build custom modules by talking to it. The rest of the recent work extends reach rather than depth: a rebuilt Chrome extension, SalesIQ and WhatsApp integrations, and four more Android languages.

Skedda
6.3COLLAB
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
◆ Current state
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.
◆ Where it's heading
Skedda is shifting from a booking front end to a source of workplace attendance data. Companion's MDM rollout aims at complete presence coverage, which makes the occupancy analytics and API more valuable as more laptops report in.
◆ Prediction
Expect occupancy and presence data to reach the API, since Skedda said more API capabilities are planned and Companion now feeds richer attendance data.
Zoho Projects
6.3COLLABPM
Zoho Projects makes time tracking the product's center of gravity, and lets Zia build the schema.
◆ Current state
Three of the last six releases touch time logs: a unified grid view, workflow automation with rules and webhooks, and Zia auto-filling weekly hours from assigned tasks. Alongside that, Zia has moved past suggestion into construction — users can now build custom modules by talking to it. The rest of the recent work extends reach rather than depth: a rebuilt Chrome extension, SalesIQ and WhatsApp integrations, and four more Android languages.
◆ Where it's heading
Time tracking is being rebuilt from a data-entry chore into an automated subsystem, with Zia supplying the entries and workflow rules acting on them. The more consequential shift is Zia's role: suggesting timesheet values is assistive, but generating custom modules means the AI is editing the structure of a customer's portal. Integration work points outward to the Zoho suite and to customer-facing channels, turning inbound chats and WhatsApp messages into tracked project records.
◆ Prediction
Expect Zia's module-building to widen into the surrounding configuration — workflow rules, layouts, and reports built the same conversational way. On the time side, the pieces are in place for Zia-suggested logs to be submitted and approved automatically under rules rather than reviewed entry by entry.
