Agora, Inc. has announced that Agnes AI, one of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing AI-native work platforms, has selected Agora Chat - powered by its global low-latency SDRTN® network—to drive its new AI Group Chat and multi-agent collaboration system, delivering seamless real-time interactions between humans and AI agents at scale.
Agnes AI’s CoVibe group chat allows users to invite colleagues via phone, email, or username and collaborate instantly with the platform’s AI assistant, @Agnes. Powered by Agora Chat, the experience now includes AI agents that actively participate in conversations, generate slides, images, videos, research summaries, and answers on the fly, while maintaining perfect synchronization across devices and geographies.
Tony Wang, Co-founder & Chief Revenue Officer at Agora, highlighted the partnership’s significance:
"Multi-agent collaboration is quickly becoming the next frontier of workplace technology, and Agnes AI is ahead of that curve. Agora Chat provides the low-latency, real-time infrastructure that makes this new class of AI-native workflows possible. We're excited to support a platform that is setting the pace for how teams and AI agents will work together globally."
Agnes AI consolidates fragmented tools into one intelligent workspace, combining real-time communication, creative generation (Deep Design), advanced research (Wide Research with up to 200 agents), and productivity features like Explore news curation and Filters visual templates. Built on the proprietary CodeAgents architecture, it delivers 20% higher reasoning accuracy and 40% lower token costs than competing solutions.
Bruce Yang, Co-Founder & CEO of Agnes AI, emphasized the collaboration:
"Our mission is to make AI accessible to everyone. Agora Chat enables us to deliver fast, natural, AI-enhanced group conversations at scale. Together with Agora, we are building the next generation of intelligent teamwork—where 200 agents, humans, and real-time collaboration all work in one unified space."
Agnes AI previewed Vibepod, an early prototype headset concept that integrates its multi-agent intelligence with Agora’s Conversational AI Engine for hands-free, voice-activated AI assistance—demonstrating the future of seamless, always-on productivity.
With rapid growth across Southeast Asia and expanding globally, Agnes AI is positioned to lead the shift toward AI-native workplaces where humans and agents collaborate in real time.
