Agora, Inc. and Singapore‑based Agnes AI announced a partnership that will embed Agora’s ultra‑low‑latency Software‑Defined Real‑Time Network (SDRTN®) into Agnes AI’s next‑generation AI‑native group chat and multi‑agent collaboration platform. The integration will allow Agnes AI to deliver real‑time, AI‑driven teamwork across its global user base, which currently exceeds 200,000 daily active users and 3 million registered users.
Agnes AI has set aggressive growth targets, aiming for 1 million daily active users by the first quarter of 2026 and 5 million by the end of 2026. The partnership gives Agnes AI the infrastructure to support that scale, while Agora gains access to a rapidly expanding Southeast Asian market and a new revenue stream from enterprise and consumer customers seeking low‑latency, AI‑enhanced collaboration solutions.
Agora’s Q3 2025 results—revenue of $35.37 million, up 12% YoY, and a net income of $2.74 million—demonstrate the company’s ability to generate profitable growth from its usage‑based model. The partnership aligns with Agora’s strategy to diversify beyond its core real‑time engagement platform and to monetize its conversational AI engine, which is designed for natural, low‑latency voice interactions and can be integrated with various AI models.
The collaboration positions Agnes AI to offer advanced multi‑agent workflows such as real‑time slide generation, image and video creation, and large‑scale market research, all powered by Agora’s conversational AI engine. By embedding Agora’s SDRTN® into its platform, Agnes AI can deliver a superior real‑time collaboration experience that differentiates it from competitors in the Southeast Asian AI market, where demand for AI‑native productivity tools is projected to grow at a CAGR of 26–37% through 2031.
Bruce Yang, co‑founder and CEO of Agnes AI, said the partnership “enables us to deliver fast, natural, AI‑enhanced group conversations at scale, building the next generation of intelligent teamwork where 200 agents, humans, and real‑time collaboration all work in one unified space.” Tony Wang, co‑founder and chief revenue officer of Agora, added that “Agora Chat provides the low‑latency, real‑time infrastructure that makes this new class of AI‑native workflows possible, and we’re excited to support a platform that is setting the pace for how teams and AI agents will work together globally.”
The deal signals a strategic pivot for both companies: Agora is expanding its footprint into the AI‑native collaboration space, while Agnes AI is leveraging Agora’s proven low‑latency network to accelerate its ambitious user growth and to monetize its platform through enterprise and consumer subscriptions. The partnership is expected to open new revenue streams for Agora and to strengthen Agnes AI’s competitive position in a market that is rapidly adopting AI‑driven productivity tools.
