PRINCETON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 23, 2026--
Zycus, a global provider in Source-to-Pay (S2P) technology, today announced that it has been recognized as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Source-to-Pay Suites.
We believe the report points to Zycus’ continued investment in Merlin Intake to streamline user experience and Agentic AI to support workflows such as tail-spend management via autonomous negotiation.
This aligns with Zycus’ “Intake to Outcomes” (I2O) belief: simplify how work enters procurement, orchestrate execution with Agentic AI, and deliver outcomes with the right governance and control.
“Being recognized as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Source-to-Pay Suites reflects our long-term commitment to innovation, customer outcomes, and responsible AI,” said Aatish Dedhia, Founder & CEO of Zycus. “ Merlin Agentic AI is designed to move beyond task automation towards end-to-end outcome-based autonomous workflows, contextual decision-making helping procurement teams operate with greater speed, intelligence, and confidence.”
We believe Gartner recognition for Zycus is attributed to:
- Merlin Agentic AI with focus areas like intake & autonomous negotiation for tail spend
- Comprehensive and organic S2P suite
- Strong brand trust and global presence
- Superior customer satisfaction
