Obviously AI

Discontinued Last verified: September 2026

No-code predictive AI platform that let business users build and deploy machine learning models in minutes. Discontinued: obviously.ai is now an archive and the vendor sells Zams.

Status update, checked 2 August 2026: Obviously AI is no longer sold as a product. The company rebranded to Zams, and obviously.ai now opens with its own banner reading "Obviously AI is now Zams. This site is an archive of how it operated through 2025." Zams sells autonomous AI agents for sales and revenue operations, which is a different product from the no-code predictive modelling platform reviewed here. Everything below is kept as a historical record of the 2025 product; do not treat the plan names, limits, or quotes as buyable today. If you are shopping for no-code predictive ML now, look at Akkio, Pecan, or DataRobot.

What is Obviously AI?

Obviously AI was a no-code predictive analytics platform that let business users, marketers, sales ops, finance analysts, operations managers, build production machine learning models without writing code, and it is no longer sold (see the status note above). The description that follows records the product as it worked before the company became Zams. You upload a CSV or connect a data source (Salesforce, HubSpot, Snowflake, BigQuery, Google Sheets), pick a column to predict, and Obviously AI runs AutoML under the hood to train, validate, and deploy a model. Predictions flow back into your CRM or warehouse, or you can call them through an API. The pitch is indistinguishable from Akkio and Pecan, the three compete hard for the same non-technical predictive analytics market, but Obviously AI emphasizes speed and simplicity. The onboarding flow is famously quick: upload, predict, deploy in about ten minutes. The platform supports classification (churn, lead quality, fraud), regression (forecasting, pricing), and basic time series, and includes explainability views so business users can understand why a model made a prediction. For enterprise deployments, Obviously AI offers SSO, audit logs, and dedicated support. The big caveat was pricing: Obviously AI did not publish public pricing and used quote-based contracts. Costs ran well above typical SaaS tools, hundreds to low thousands per month for team plans, because the value proposition was replacing an expensive data scientist, not replacing an Excel file. For individuals wanting to try predictive modeling, lighter tools like Julius may make more sense. For mid-size teams that needed a clean no-code ML pipeline tied to a CRM, Obviously AI was a strong choice while it was on sale. It no longer is, as the status note above explains.

⚡ Quick Verdict

Best for

Marketing, sales, and ops teams who want no-code predictive models tied to Salesforce or HubSpot

Not ideal for

Individual experimenters, budget-sensitive teams, or data scientists who want fine control

Starting price

Not sold anymore; the vendor now sells Zams instead

Free plan

Not applicable, the product is retired

Key strength

Fastest no-code onboarding in the predictive AI category, upload to deployed model in about 10 minutes

Limitation

Opaque pricing; less customization than dedicated enterprise platforms

Bottom line: Obviously AI scored 4.3/5 as a polished no-code predictive AI tool for business teams, but it is no longer available. The vendor rebranded to Zams and pivoted to AI sales agents, so new buyers should evaluate an alternative instead.

Pricing

Archived pricing, no longer purchasable. The tiers below describe how Obviously AI was sold through 2025. The obviously.ai landing page now renders no prices, plan amounts, or tier details, only navigation and a Get Started link pointing at /pricing, and the company has moved to Zams, so none of these plans can be bought today. Do not budget against these figures.

Free trial: There was limited trial access to test the product on your own data. Signups are closed.

Starter, custom: Single user, basic predictive models, CSV and CRM connections, email support. Quote-based.

Team, custom: Multiple users, advanced integrations (Salesforce, HubSpot, Snowflake, BigQuery), scheduled scoring, API access, priority support.

Enterprise, custom: SSO, SAML, audit logs, dedicated customer success, SLA support, and on-premise or VPC deployment options.

FAQ

What does Obviously AI do?

Obviously AI is a no-code predictive analytics platform that builds machine learning models for business users, things like lead scoring, churn prediction, revenue forecasting, and customer segmentation, without writing code. You upload data, pick what to predict, and the platform trains and deploys a model in minutes. Predictions can be written back to Salesforce, HubSpot, or your data warehouse automatically. As of August 2026: this describes the product as it operated through 2025. Obviously AI has since rebranded to Zams, obviously.ai serves an archive notice, and this platform is no longer sold.

How much does Obviously AI cost?

Obviously AI does not publish public pricing. Plans are custom-quoted through sales based on users, data volume, required integrations, and support level. Expect costs well above typical SaaS tools, typically hundreds to low thousands per month for team deployments, because the product positioned itself as replacing a data scientist rather than replacing a spreadsheet. That was the picture through 2025. As of August 2026 there is no current price to quote: obviously.ai is an archive and the vendor sells Zams instead.

Obviously AI vs Akkio vs Pecan, which is best?

All three are no-code predictive analytics platforms targeting the same market. Akkio emphasizes marketing and sales workflows with strong CRM integrations. Obviously AI emphasizes the fastest onboarding, ten minutes from upload to deployment. Pecan is more enterprise-focused with deeper data pipeline support. The model quality was similar on clean structured data; the decision usually came down to integrations, pricing, and team fit. That comparison is now historical: Obviously AI became Zams and left this category in 2025, so the live choice in August 2026 is between Akkio and Pecan.

Does Obviously AI integrate with Salesforce?

Yes. Obviously AI has a native Salesforce integration that reads historical data to train models and writes predictions back as custom fields on leads, contacts, or opportunities. HubSpot integration works similarly. For teams already managing their data in a CRM, these integrations are the primary reason to choose Obviously AI over a generic notebook-based workflow.

Can I deploy Obviously AI models via API?

Yes, on paid plans, while the product was sold. Deployed models exposed a REST API you could call from your application for real-time inference. That made Obviously AI usable not just for batch CRM scoring but for in-product predictions, e.g., scoring checkout abandonment in real time or routing support tickets based on predicted priority. There are no plans to buy today: obviously.ai is an archive and the vendor sells Zams.

Is Obviously AI secure for customer data?

Obviously AI was SOC 2 compliant and supported GDPR and CCPA requirements. Enterprise plans added SSO, SAML, audit logs, and dedicated support. For HIPAA-regulated data, a BAA and a deployment review had to be arranged with Obviously AI's enterprise team, which is no longer possible now that the product is retired and obviously.ai is an archive.

Who should not use Obviously AI?

Individual data scientists who want fine control over model training, hyperparameters, and feature engineering will find Obviously AI too opaque, use Julius, Deepnote, or DataRobot instead. Budget-sensitive solo users should also look at lighter alternatives. Obviously AI is best for mid-size business teams who have real CRM data and want predictions flowing back into their workflows without hiring a data scientist.

📋 Good to know
