Choosing an AI partner in Singapore is mostly about avoiding hype and finding someone who will scope honestly. Here are the criteria that matter.
What to look for
Look for a partner who starts with your problem (not a product), scopes a measurable first use case, is transparent about data handling under the PDPA and residency, and avoids lock-in by being model-agnostic.
Questions to ask
Will you scope a small first project with a baseline? Who owns the code and data? Can it be self-hosted or run in a Singapore region? Are you tied to one AI model? Honest answers matter more than a polished deck.
On track records
dgm is an independent osFoundry integration partner — not affiliated with osFoundry’s maker (OS LLC), and dgm has no completed client integrations yet. An honest partner is clear about what it has and has not done, and advises you against a build you do not need. osFoundry’s managed cloud pins data to the US, EU or Japan — it does not currently offer a Singapore managed region (its nearest managed region is Japan). For data that must stay in Singapore, the honest path is self-hosting osFoundry (BYO Cloud) inside a Singapore cloud region such as AWS Asia Pacific (Singapore) ap-southeast-1, Microsoft Azure Southeast Asia (Singapore) or Google Cloud asia-southeast1 (Singapore), or running models locally on-device.
Where dgm fits
dgm is an independent integration partner that helps Singapore businesses adopt osFoundry — scoping a first use case, handling the build, and connecting AI to the systems you already run. dgm is independent of osFoundry’s maker (OS LLC) and has no completed client integrations yet, so everything described here is a service offered, not a past result. If you want to scope a practical first project, dgm can help you map it out.
