- AI workforce launch. Omnichat unveiled Omni AI, an autonomous agentic platform.
- Integrated CX functions. Marketing, sales and support automated in a single system.
- Enterprise client impact. Global brands gain scalable automation, potentially reducing manual workflows and staffing needs.
Omnichat on May 5 launched Omni AI, upgrading its conversational commerce platform into what the company calls an AI-native agentic customer experience system. The Hong Kong-based vendor said the platform provides an autonomous AI workforce designed to integrate marketing, sales and support for enterprise clients.
According to company officials, Omnichat reported 130% year-on-year growth for two consecutive years in Southeast Asia and said its platform helped clients generate more than $100 million in revenue. The company said it serves more than 5,000 enterprises across markets including Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, the UK and the UAE.
The platform replaces traditional rule-based chatbots with what Omnichat describes as "AI Employees"— autonomous agent personas onboarded using the same process as human staff. These agents are designed to apply business logic, use a brand's voice and manage workflows independently.

Omni AI Message Flow: Agentic Campaign Creation
A centerpiece of the launch is Omni AI Message Flow, which Omnichat says replaces manual drag-and-drop workflow builders with an AI-driven campaign creation system. Marketers can describe a campaign objective in natural language, and the platform generates the full message architecture, logic and creative assets. Omnichat said the system transitions campaigns from concept to live in seconds.
The platform also includes an instant brand onboarding feature. By inputting a website URL, Omni AI ingests a brand's identity, tone and knowledge base, which the company says ensures all subsequent marketing assets remain on-brand without additional configuration. A built-in generative media gallery allows teams to create and edit images directly within the flow builder.
Human Oversight Built Into the Agentic Model
Omnichat said the platform includes two governance mechanisms designed to keep human teams in control of AI agent behavior. A human-in-the-loop oversight layer designates brand owners as AI Supervisors, allowing human staff to coach agents and approve critical actions before they execute. A sandbox testing environment lets brands stress-test conversation paths and logic in real time before an agent goes live with customers.
"We are not merely adding AI as a feature; we are establishing the AI-Native Agentic Platform as the new standard for the global industry," said Alan Chan, CEO and founder at Omnichat. "By deploying agentic AI like Omni AI Message Flow, we are providing our clients with a scalable, autonomous workforce that allows human talent to ascend to roles of pure creativity and strategy, while Omni AI masters the execution."
Channel Reach and Partner Certifications
Omnichat said it is currently the only company in the Asia-Pacific region to simultaneously hold Meta Business Partner, LINE Biz-Solutions Gold Tech Partner and AWS Partner status. The company said the triple certification provides enterprise-grade security and API reliability across social channels including WhatsApp, LINE, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, WeChat, TikTok and KakaoTao.
The company also cited infrastructure scale, saying its network delivered more than 3 billion messages in the past 12 months. Omnichat attributed conversion rates five times higher than traditional ecommerce platforms to its clients, though the figure was self-reported and not independently verified.

Omnichat has moved aggressively to build credibility and capital over the past year, closing a $9 million seed round in June 2025 before securing admission to Meta's Business Partner program and certification as a WhatsApp Business Solution Provider — a credential that unlocks enterprise-grade WhatsApp integrations across its customer service platform.
On the product side, Omnichat launched the Omni AI Agent Studio in December 2025, giving brands a drag-and-drop environment to build native conversational AI agents and connect third-party tools across channels.
