MyRepublic rolls out AI Automation Box for SMEs

MyRepublic has launched the AI Automation Box for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Singapore.

The plug-and-play AI server lets businesses automate operations without the need for deep technical expertise or large IT teams. It enables SMEs to quickly deploy AI-powered workflows across areas such as customer service, reporting, invoicing, and HR.

AI adoption among SMEs has been hampered by high cost, technical complexity and dependence on external consultants. Addressing these challenges, the AI Automation Box is a self-contained automation engine available for S$255 per month for businesses with 20 to 200 employees. The plan comes with more than 100 pre-built workflow templates, self-hosted large language models (LLM) and a no-code/low-code toolkit.

While many AI tools require a cloud subscription, MyRepublic’s box runs on-premise to give businesses full data privacy and control. The move aligns with Singapore’s national push for digital transformation and empowers SMEs to become more agile and competitive in a rapidly digitalising economy.

“The AI Automation Box is like having your own private AI lab, but it fits in your office and works out-of-the-box. We built this so any business, not just tech startups, can start automating like a Fortune 500 company,” said Lawrence Chan (top), Managing Director and Chief AI Officer at MyRepublic.
