SG’s Agnes AI hits 2 million users in four months

Agnes AI, a Singapore-based AI assistant platform, has surpassed 2 million registered users globally since launching in July 2025.

The company reported around 150,000 daily active users, with half of its user base in Southeast Asia.

Agnes AI also ranked among the top 10 productivity tools on Google Play in the Philippines, Vietnam, and Indonesia.

Founded by Bruce Yang, the company offers an AI-powered workspace that combines search, research, slide generation, and design tools.

Agnes AI claims to use a proprietary, locally controlled technology stack and has built its own seven-billion-parameter model, Agnes-R1, for search, research, and presentation tasks.

The company said its model performed better than similar models in internal and benchmark tests.

Agnes AI is working with local universities to develop a larger model, and is exploring partnerships with regional institutions and technology providers.
