Why AgnesAI could become the most trusted company in tech

As more businesses bring AI into core decisions, trust is starting to matter just as much as raw capability. Bruce can speak to why Agnes AI is being built around neutrality, accessibility, and broad global usability at a time when many leading platforms are becoming entangled in political power, national allegiance, and closed ecosystems. With a multi-model architecture designed for flexibility, cost efficiency, and performance — including Agnes Claw rankings of #7 and #12 globally on PinchBench, ahead of models from several much larger AI companies — this becomes a timely conversation about why the company best positioned for long-term trust may be the one that feels safest, most usable, and most adaptable to the widest range of users.

Building Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing AI platform

Bruce’s entrepreneurial story spans Silicon Valley, Singapore, China, and multiple tech cycles, giving him a much wider lens than the average AI founder. With experience across Microsoft, LinkedIn, Berkeley, and now Agnes AI — a Singapore-based company approaching 10 million global users and nearly US$20 million in ARR — he can speak to what it takes to build a serious AI company outside the usual power centres. For founder and business audiences, this creates a strong conversation about conviction, timing, and why some of the next important tech companies may be built far from the places the industry is trained to watch.

How the next breakout AI platform is being built outside the usual power centres

Most people still assume the most important AI companies will come from the same places the tech world already watches. Bruce’s story challenges that, showing what becomes possible when a founder with deep technical and entrepreneurial experience builds from Singapore while serving a much broader global market. With Agnes AI growing toward 10 million users, generating nearly US$20 million in ARR, and building toward enterprise-grade API infrastructure and a potential SGX listing, this becomes a timely conversation about where the next major AI platform might really come from — and why the market keeps overlooking it.
