For Malaysian SME owners

Where can AI actually save your business money?

An honest AI Opportunity Audit for Malaysian SMEs — a written report of real, costed opportunities. No hype, no jargon, no six-figure consultant.

The problem

You already know AI matters. You just don't know what to do about it.

Your team is already using AI

Staff are pasting work into ChatGPT right now, with no oversight. You don't know what's exposed.

The advice out there is noise

Hype, online courses, or RM50k consultants in suits. None of it tells you what to do on Monday.

You don't have a week to research it

You need a straight answer: what's worth doing, in what order, and what it's worth.

How it works

Three steps. One honest answer.

01

Talk

A 45-minute call and a short questionnaire your team helps fill in. We learn how your business actually runs.

02

Analyse

We map where AI fits your operations, your data, and your risk — and where it doesn't.

03

Decide

You get a written report: named opportunities, costed, and prioritised. Then you choose what to build.

Why The Narrative Lab

We don't sell slide decks. We install working systems.

You talk to the builder

Not a salesperson. The person who scopes your audit is the person who builds the system.

Plain English — also Mandarin & Malay

No jargon. We explain everything in the language you run your business in.

If it's worth building, we build it

The audit ends in a concrete plan. If you proceed, we install it and train your team.

Local, and accountable

A Malaysian firm. We meet face-to-face, invoice in RM, and we're still here after launch.

Being upfront

The Narrative Lab is new — and we'd rather say so than pretend otherwise. That's why we're taking a small number of founding clients at a reduced rate, in exchange for honest feedback and, if you're happy, a testimonial. You're not betting on a reputation — you're judging an actual written deliverable, and the audit fee credits in full toward any work you go on to commission.
