RAG development · Malaysia

RAG development services in Malaysia

A senior team a short time-zone hop away, building products ready to scale across the region.

Clarigo Infotech builds retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems: AI search and assistants that find the right information in your documents, databases and knowledge base, then answer with sources. RAG keeps answers accurate and current without retraining a model, and respects who is allowed to see what.

Malaysian businesses most often hire us for fintech, e-commerce and AI customer service.

What we do

What we build with RAG

Chat with your documents

Ask questions across PDFs, policies, manuals and contracts and get answers with citations.

Enterprise knowledge assistants

One place for staff to find answers across Google Drive, SharePoint, Confluence and more.

Customer support answers

Grounded answers for support teams and chatbots, drawn from your help centre and product data.

Search over structured data

Combine document search with SQL and APIs so answers include live numbers.

Permission-aware retrieval

Users only get answers from content they are allowed to see.

Evaluation and tuning

Test sets that measure retrieval and answer quality, and tuning until they pass.

In depth

How we approach RAG development

Why RAG instead of fine-tuning

Fine-tuning changes how a model writes; RAG changes what it knows at the moment it answers. For most business questions RAG is cheaper, easier to update and easier to audit, because every answer points to its source.

Getting retrieval right

Quality depends on how documents are cleaned, split, embedded and searched. We use hybrid search (keyword plus vector), re-ranking and metadata filters, and test retrieval separately from the final answer.

Keeping it current and secure

Connectors keep the index in sync as documents change, and access rules from your source systems are applied at query time so nobody sees what they shouldn't.

Measured, not guessed

We build a test set of real questions with expected answers and track accuracy, citation quality and 'I don't know' rates, so you can see improvement and catch regressions.

Working with us from Malaysia

Built for Malaysian teams

Time-zone overlap

Malaysia is two and a half hours ahead of India, so our working days overlap for most of the day.

Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA)

We design to the PDPA's data protection principles: notice and choice, security, retention and access, with data hosted in regional cloud regions when required and NDAs signed before work starts.

Billing

Invoices in Malaysian ringgit (MYR) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.

Sectors · Malaysia

Built for Malaysia's key sectors

Malaysian businesses use us for fintech and e-commerce platforms and AI customer service in English and Malay, designed to the PDPA.

Semiconductors and electronics

Penang assembly and testing firms adopt factory software. AI here usually means faster reporting, fewer manual steps and better customer replies.

Palm oil and agriculture

Plantations use traceability tools to meet export rules. We start with one costly process and automate it end to end.

Islamic finance

Shariah-compliant banks and fintechs build digital products. We build AI agents, assistants and automation around these workflows.

Tourism

Hotels and attractions market to regional travellers online. AI here usually means faster reporting, fewer manual steps and better customer replies.

What is RAG (retrieval-augmented generation)?+

RAG is a way of building AI assistants that first search your own documents and data for relevant information, then use a language model to answer from what was found, usually with citations.

How is RAG different from a normal chatbot?+

A normal chatbot answers from what the model learned in training. A RAG assistant answers from your current, private information, so it is more accurate for your business and can show its sources.
