Clare AI is an independent software business based in Malaysia, run by its founder. It exists because of a simple objection: paying $0.99–$2.00 for every question a machine answers is rent, not software. So Clare AI is sold the old way — one license, your server, your data — and supported the direct way: the person who built it answers your messages.
Watching businesses across Southeast Asia — online stores, F&B groups, iGaming operators — bleed monthly fees that grow with their success made the problem obvious. The better your business does, the more questions your customers ask, and the bigger your support software bill gets. That’s backwards. Support costs should not scale against you. A one-time license with ~1¢-per-conversation model usage means your cost curve flattens exactly when per-resolution vendors’ curves take off. The calculator shows the gap at your volume.
Fair question — here’s the honest math. When a SaaS vendor shuts down, their product dies with them, and your support system goes dark. Clare AI is the opposite by design: it’s self-hosted on your server, so it keeps running no matter what happens to us. Professional and Enterprise tiers include the full source code and deployment scripts. And every purchase is covered by a 30-day deployment guarantee — live and answering your customers, or your money back. Structurally, you are less dependent on us than on any subscription vendor.
No sales pipeline, no account managers, no pressure demos. The person answering your WhatsApp is the person who wrote the deployment scripts. Decisions take minutes, not quarters.
Public prices. A published methodology for the 98% claim. A security page that tells you plainly what we don’t have. Real customers in iGaming, e-commerce and F&B you can read about on the homepage.
Email or WhatsApp, answered by a real person within 24 hours — usually much faster in Asian time zones. No calls unless you want one. Delivery within a week of payment. If something in a deployment breaks because of us, we fix it; that’s what the guarantee is for.
Questions about fit, deployment, or your industry? Message directly — no forms routed to a sales team, because there isn’t one.
