What Kiko does for Malaysian businesses

  • Answers from your own content

    Kiko reads your website, PDFs and price lists and answers only from them (retrieval-augmented generation, or RAG), with the page or file each answer came from. It doesn't make up a price or a phone number.

  • Support that hands off

Languages your customers in Malaysia write in

Malaysian customers move between Malay, English and Chinese in one conversation, often in one sentence. Kiko follows the customer's language and answers from your knowledge in whichever language you wrote it.

  • Bahasa Melayu

    A customer who writes in Malay gets the answer in Malay, from a price list written in English.

  • Manglish, understood

    “Boss, Saturday can service or not? Price how much?” is a booking question, and Kiko treats it as one.

  • Chinese and Tamil

    Customers who write in Chinese or Tamil get replies in the same language. Test a few in the playground with your own content first.

  • One language if you prefer

    Set a fixed reply language of English and Kiko answers every customer in English.

Where customers in Malaysia reach you

In Malaysia, WhatsApp is how customers book, ask for prices and chase orders, often straight from a Facebook or Instagram post. Telegram is popular for groups and updates, and your website catches people searching on Google.

  • WhatsApp from your posts and ads

    Customers tap WhatsApp from your social posts and ads. Kiko answers every one of them at once, on your business number.

  • Telegram channels and groups

    Businesses that already run Telegram for updates can answer questions there with the same agent and knowledge.

  • Website chat for search traffic

    Visitors from Google can ask on your site and be booked in or moved to WhatsApp.

What WhatsApp costs in Malaysia

Meta's Malaysia rates per delivered message, from its USD rate card effective 1 October 2026. Meta bills them to your own WhatsApp account; HeyKiko adds nothing to them.
