Akal AI Solutions

Akal AI Solutions builds custom software and AI systems for established businesses. We're a founder-led studio in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, led by Vimallnath Kathirasan, a former PwC Strategy& and EY strategy consultant who now builds the software himself.

Most software fails because consultants don't code, and developers don't understand the business. We start by mapping how your team really works, fix the process, then build the system around your people: internal operations and quoting systems, ERP-connected procurement, and customer-facing mobile apps. Automation comes in stages, and AI goes in only where it earns its cost.

Recent work includes customer apps for a Malaysian jewellery group's gold-savings scheme (1,200+ customers moved off spreadsheets), a procurement system that works alongside their existing ERP across about 11,000 SKUs, and an operations and quoting system for an event equipment business.

Every build starts from a fixed-scope proposal paid in milestones, and comes with 30 days of free bug fixes, staff training and a written handover. We take projects in Malaysia and the US, and US calls run in your morning, which is our evening.
