What ZYCOO does

ZYCOO is a privately held China-based developer of SIP-based IP telephony and IP public-address/audio systems, founded by Hongzhen Wang and operating from Chengdu with manufacturing and R&D in Shenzhen and a US legal entity (Zycoo Communications LLC.). The company's portfolio centers on two ecosystems: the CooVox IP-PBX unified-communication line (T-Series and C-Series appliances and software) and the IP Audio Center (IAS-L100) platform with a broad endpoint family of SIP-enabled network speakers (ceiling, horn, column, cabinet and square models), network intercoms, paging gateways, microphone consoles, panic buttons, power amplifiers and VoIP gateways. Devices interconnect via SIP and PoE/PoE+ standards, integrate with ONVIF-compliant video management systems for triggered audio intervention, and increasingly support Dante audio networking for professional AV use cases.

The business is hardware-led, with software (IP Audio Center, Dispatch Console, AudioDispatch mobile app, SAAD Tool) increasingly monetized on a recurring basis and a professional services stream from the ZCAS/ZCAE partner certification program. Go-to-market is overwhelmingly channel-driven: ZYCOO sells through distributors, system integrators and AV/security resellers in at least 16 countries across Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, North America and Latin America, supported by 20+ annual trade shows (ISE, InfoComm, ISC West, Intersec, GITEX, Security Essen, CommunicAsia and regional security expos). Verticalized solution pages target education, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, hotels, smart poles, public transport, parking, senior care, parks, mosques, prisons and petrol stations, with the only named public customer being Karting Sevilla in Spain.

Pricing is quote-based with no public list prices; the company is founder-owned with no disclosed institutional funding or M&A activity, and headcount sits at 51–100 employees. The product roadmap through 2025–2026 shows continuous cadence (VI Series intercoms, PB-S11 panic buttons, VC-Z01 controllers, SD260/SD2140 Dante amplifiers, AudioDispatch App V2, SAAD Tool V2.0.0), with explicit emphasis on global certification training and broader international distribution buildout.
