Yesterday I sat down with a director from a well-known Malaysian company, and our conversation naturally turned to AI智能体 for 中小企业.
从 a financial perspective, we both agreed that 2026 marks the beginning of the AI 智能体 era for ordinary businesses—especially what I refer to as street 中小企业.
In the past, only larger companies could budget for a dedicated IT经理, or even full teams covering IT, PR, multimedia, data, and automation.
Now, even micro-enterprises can access equivalent capabilities through AI智能体, but at a fraction of the traditional operational cost.
In AINNA's context, the numbers are compelling: a server costs around RM100 per year, while session-based LLM usage can range from free to roughly RM80 depending on consumption.
That means a small 中小企业 can deploy AI智能体 across IT, marketing, 财务, customer service, content, and operations—all while keeping overheads predictable and minimal.
What once required a full department is now accessible to a street 中小企业, at a cost that delivers clear financial value.
