Where Organisations Usually Start

Documents and Records

Extract and sort information from forms, reports and correspondence; a person approves the output.

Knowledge and Policy

Staff get answers from your own manuals and procedures, with the source shown.

Service Requests

Routine requests handled; anything out of scope goes to the right person.

Reporting and Forecasting

Regular reports and forecasts from your operational data, for managers to check.

Each can include AI workers that take on routine tasks and hand the result to your team to check.

How We Build

  1. Map the WorkProcess, people, data and risks, before any technology.
  2. Design the ControlsScope, limits and where a person decides.
  3. Build and TestOn your data, in your environment if required.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Short answers about Pneuma Tech, Elpis and investing in Sarawak

What does Pneuma Tech do?

Pneuma Tech is a Kuching-based artificial intelligence company, incorporated in Malaysia in August 2026. We build governed AI systems for organisations, develop Elpis, our flagship health platform, and act as a local partner to international investors bringing AI and digital-infrastructure projects to Sarawak.

What does the name Pneuma mean?

Pneuma is the Greek word for breath. Good technology should work the same way: always there, and never in the way.

What is a governed AI system?

It is an AI system scoped to a defined process, owned and used by the client, with governance built in from the start. Every system we build includes versioning, data provenance, human override, incident logging and an audit trail, with defined points where a person reviews, corrects or stops it.

Where do organisations usually start with AI?

Usually with one of four areas: documents and records, knowledge and policy, service requests, or reporting and forecasting. Each keeps a person in the loop to check or act on the result.

Is Pneuma Tech ISO/IEC 42001 certified?

Not yet. We are building our AI management system to ISO/IEC 42001 and are working towards certification.

What is Elpis?

Elpis is a health platform being developed in Sarawak for Malaysian patients, pharmacies and clinics. It is not yet released. Its classification under the Medical Device Act 2012 will be confirmed with the Medical Device Authority before launch.

How does Pneuma Tech support data centre and AI compute investors in Sarawak?

We act as the on-the-ground partner from first enquiry to handover: site screening, agency confirmations under State Planning Authority (SPA) Circular No. 2/2026, the planning submission, due diligence, project management, and linking each facility to Sarawak enterprises, talent and training partners.

Why is Pneuma Tech based in Kuching?

Kuching is Sarawak’s capital, where the agencies that approve and support investment are based. The BaSICS submarine cable to Singapore lands at Santubong, and Sarawak has 3.6 GW of hydropower in operation, of about 5.9 GW installed capacity.
