Singapore sits in a regional context that genuinely changes the build. Connectivity assumptions, the rhythm of the working week, the proximity of your team to your customers - none of those are details our default semantic search (RAG) template would catch.
Semantic search (RAG) that lives in your stack, not on a vendor's roadmap. Shipped from Central Business District.
Our goal is to give Singapore businesses a three-day weekend, so people can spend more time with their families and the people they love :)
What semantic search (RAG) actually does
Search that understands intent, not just keywords. Your team types what they mean - and gets the right document, ticket, or product from across every system, with citations.
- 01 Indexes Drive, SharePoint, Notion, Slack, your CRM
- 02 Returns answers with source links - no hallucinations
- 03 Permissioned so staff only see what they should
- 04 Re-indexes nightly so results stay fresh
Built on: Pinecone Claude Postgres pgvector Vercel AI SDK

What you actually get
Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. This is what is in the box.
- A working pilot, in productionNot a prototype on someone's laptop. The first slice of semantic search (RAG) runs against real work within weeks.
- Your data stays yoursIt runs on your accounts and your tools. If we part ways you keep the system and everything in it.
- The workflow mapped before codeWe write down what good looks like for Singapore businesses first, so nobody is guessing at handover.
- Support after it landsThe people who built it stay reachable when the business changes shape around it.
How semantic search (RAG) compares
The two things most businesses do instead, and where each one runs out.
| Hiring for it | An off-the-shelf tool | Kiwi Dynamics | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fit to how you work | Fits perfectly, costs a salary | You bend your process to suit the tool | Built around the workflow you already run |
| Time to something useful | Immediate, and permanent | Quick to switch on, slow to make fit | A working slice in weeks, then hardened |
| Who owns the data | You do | The vendor, on the vendor's terms | You do, in your own accounts |
| When it breaks | That person sorts it, if they are in | A support queue and a ticket number | The people who built it |
| What it costs | A salary, every year, forever | Per seat, forever, used or not | Scoped and quoted up front |
The pattern across Singapore engagements we've shipped.
- Singapore has one of the highest AI adoption rates in the world, and the CBD runs on banking, wealth management and regional HQ operations - AI here has to meet a market that's already fluent in it.
- Home to the regional headquarters of most major global banks and a dense wealth management sector, sitting inside a government that's pushed AI adoption harder than almost any other country. Singapore businesses expect AI that's precise, compliant and genuinely production-ready, not a pilot.
We work with teams across Singapore: Raffles Place · Marina Bay · Shenton Way · Tanjong Pagar · City Hall.

How we build semantic search (RAG) for a Singapore team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Singapore business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI search over your data.
Talk to usHow the work runs
- Find the one workflowWe look for the job costing Singapore businesses the most hours or the most leads, and deliberately ignore the rest for now.
- Ship a working sliceA narrow version goes into production in weeks, against real work, so the value shows up before the build is finished.
- Prove it, then widenWe measure it against what the work cost before. If it does not pay for itself, we say so rather than scaling it.
- Harden and hand overLogging, fallbacks and a real handover, so it keeps running when we are not in the room.
The outcome for Singapore teams
The shape of the result for Singapore teams: Average search time drops from 6 minutes to 12 seconds. Built on Pinecone, hardened with the rest of the stack as it scales.
Not your typical AI agency.
Honest about what AI can and cannot do
Ships the one workflow that pays for itself
Hours given back, never the size of the invoice

FAQ
How fast could we have semantic search (RAG) in production?
Eight to ten weeks for most Singapore businesses. Faster if your data is in good shape and slower if we're untangling a legacy integration first. We'll give you a realistic number on the scoping call rather than the optimistic one.
What does semantic search (RAG) cost for a Singapore?
Pilots start from a fixed scope priced to land a measurable result inside 6 weeks. Pricing depends on data volume, integration complexity, and whether you need us on managed services afterwards. We'll quote precisely after a 30-minute scoping call.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Average search time drops from 6 minutes to 12 seconds.
What if our Singapore doesn't have any data ready?
Most don't. Getting the data into shape - ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful - is part of the engagement. For semantic search (RAG) specifically, we typically run that work on Pinecone, Claude, Postgres pgvector, Vercel AI SDK and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
