Our Mission

One entry. Every flow.

Enter it once. Let everything flow.

Every business runs on information. A WhatsApp message, a receipt, a website enquiry or a service request. Yet too often, the same information is entered into multiple systems, creating unnecessary work, delays and errors.

At 1point, we believe it should work differently.

We build custom software and AI agents around the way your business operates. Enter information once, and let it flow seamlessly across your business, from quotations and job scheduling to invoicing, payment reminders, payroll and accounting.

No repetitive data entry. Fewer manual workarounds. More time to focus on what matters.

Our mission is to give every SME the connected, intelligent business system that larger companies enjoy, built around your needs, without unnecessary complexity or enterprise-level costs.

One entry. Every flow. Your business, working as one.

Example: a service businessJust one workflow. We map yours to the way your business actually runs.

About 1point

Good automation should not be only for big companies. 1point makes it possible for every SME.

1point is a Singapore AI automation company. Our founder has spent years in multinational companies, configuring ERP systems and running complex finance and HR processes. She is not just a systems person: she understands how accounting works, how HR works, and how every business runs its operations differently. At the same time, helping family and friends with their own businesses showed her what SMEs really struggle with, and exactly why so many hours are lost to data being typed, copied and checked by hand. 1point combines both. SMEs do not need the layers of approvals that big companies have. They need work done efficiently, with every step still tracked. So we bring enterprise discipline without the overkill: right-sized for your business, and nothing you do not need.

We map it for you. We sit with you, trace how information moves through your business today, find where the hours go, and redesign it so that each piece of data is entered once and flows everywhere it is needed. Then we make it simple enough that your team uses it from day one.

We first built a complete AI-run system for a friend’s service business, linking CRM, operations, payroll and accounting. That system runs the business every day. Now we bring the same to SMEs across Singapore.

Integrated Platform

Enterprise ERP capability, scaled for Singapore SMEs.

An ERP is one system where finance, HR, operations and sales share the same information. Usually that means an expensive licence and a long project. 1point links the systems you already use into one, so information is entered once and shared everywhere.

AI Agents, Not Traditional Software

Traditional systems record work. AI agents complete it.

Normal software needs people to enter data, press the buttons and remember the follow-ups. An AI agent reads what comes in, works out the next step, does it and checks the result, all day, every day, following the rules you set.

Traditional system
  • Staff read WhatsApp enquiries and type them into the system.
  • Staff copy amounts and GST from receipt photos by hand.
  • Staff download supplier PDF invoices and upload them again.
  • Overdue invoices wait until someone notices and follows up.
  • Every process change needs a paid change request.
1point AI agent
  • Reads the enquiry and replies with available time slots.
  • Reads the receipt and prepares the bill, with GST filled in.
  • Reads the PDF, matches it to the order and files it.
  • Spots overdue invoices, sends reminders and stops once paid.
  • Follows new rules you describe in plain English.

Frequently Asked Questions

AI automation for SMEs: common questions.

Answers to the questions Singapore business owners ask most about AI agents, automation and grant support.

Can we replace our outsourced bookkeeping service?

For many SMEs, yes. With a good system, the bookkeeping happens as the business runs: your team snaps a photo of each receipt or forwards each PDF invoice, invoices are created from finished jobs, and the AI agent records everything in your accounting system, attaches the document and matches it to the bank. Instead of waiting weeks for a monthly report from an outsourced bookkeeper, you see your sales, expenses, cash and who owes you in real time, on your dashboard or by asking the bot. Most businesses still keep an accountant for GST filing, year-end accounts and tax, but the monthly bookkeeping fee and the delay are gone.

Do we need to replace our existing software?

Not necessarily. Most modern software, such as Xero, field service and CRM apps, payroll, WhatsApp and Telegram, has an API: a secure connection that lets other systems read and update its data. If your tools work well and have an API, we keep them and add AI agents that connect them, so information flows between them automatically. If your software has no API, no longer fits the way you work, or costs too much, we build custom software to replace it. Many subscriptions charge up to US$70 per user per month, so 10 staff can cost US$8,400 a year, and the bill keeps rising as you hire. With custom software you own, there are no per-user fees. We assess your tools first and recommend the better option.

Which business functions can be automated?

There is no fixed list. If a task follows clear rules or involves paperwork, an AI agent can most likely handle it. Tell us what takes up your team's time, and we will assess it and propose a solution. Common examples include invoicing, statements of account, payment follow-ups, receipt capture, bank reconciliation, GST preparation, payroll, leave and claims, job scheduling, service reports, enquiry responses and quotation follow-ups.

Can the project be supported by a government grant?

Projects may qualify for Enterprise Singapore's EDGE Grant, which replaced the EDG and PSG from 30 September 2026. Eligibility and support levels are decided by Enterprise Singapore. We help you check eligibility and prepare the project scope before you apply.

Who owns the system and the data?

You do. Your solution runs in your own accounts and your data stays with your business. There is no ongoing platform licence and no vendor lock-in.

How long does implementation take?

We work step by step. We start with the area that saves the most time, run it alongside your team so you can check the results, then add more areas at your pace. Timelines depend on scope and are confirmed after the free assessment.
