SINGAPORE, Aug. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Aurora Mobile Limited (NASDAQ: JG) (“Aurora Mobile” or the “Company”), a leading provider of customer engagement and marketing technology services, today announced that it has signed a three-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Exabytes, Southeast Asia’s leading AI-driven digital solutions provider. The collaboration will explore opportunities involving Aurora Mobile’s AI-first customer engagement platform EngageLab and enterprise-grade AI agent platform GPTBots.ai. The agreement, signed on August 13 at the Exabytes GROW AI Summit 2026 in Kuala Lumpur, marks the beginning of a strategic collaboration to support Exabytes’ goal of empowering one million businesses with AI by 2030.
Aurora Mobile will bring its enterprise-grade AI architecture to the region. Through this alliance, Exabytes plans to explore integrating Aurora Mobile’s AI capabilities across its business network, with the goal of enabling more efficient, AI-driven operations.

Bridging the AI Execution Gap
The partnership addresses a critical challenge in enterprise technology adoption: while a growing majority of companies are investing in AI, many struggle to see measurable returns because their AI remains disconnected from core business workflows. Aurora Mobile and Exabytes aim to co-develop AI solutions—ranging from localized smart customer service for SMEs to private hybrid AI infrastructures for large enterprises and government bodies.
Keynote: “Gen AI Enterprise — Agents That Never Sleep”
Addressing an audience of over 500 industry leaders at the summit, Mr. Weidong Luo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Aurora Mobile, addressed the “Execution Bottleneck” preventing enterprises from realizing AI value.

In his presentation, Mr. Luo outlined the “Three Steps of the AI Journey,” noting that most companies remain stuck at Step 2: possessing AI that understands intent but lacks the systemic connection to execute tasks.
“Businesses in Southeast Asia need more than a chatbot — they need AI that can act within their existing systems,” said Mr. Luo. “This partnership brings together Exabytes’ regional reach with our agentic AI capabilities to bridge the gap between AI ambition and execution.”
Mr. Luo highlighted what he called the “Malaysia AI Paradox” — the gap between national AI ambitions and enterprise execution: “At 3 AM, your customer is awake and messaging you on WhatsApp. Your competitor’s AI answers in seconds, while yours is queued until 9 AM.”
Aurora Mobile’s platform supports multi-lingual AI agents with sentiment analysis and cross-conversation memory, designed to route customer intents, integrate with ERP and CRM systems, and provide 24/7 response capabilities — capabilities that the partnership aims to bring to Exabytes’ customer base. “Together with Exabytes, we are building a bridge from AI ambition to AI action,” Mr. Luo concluded.
Building for Southeast Asia
By combining Exabytes’ cloud infrastructure and localized managed services with Aurora Mobile’s AI workflow automation and omnichannel delivery capabilities, the partnership aims to build a comprehensive technology ecosystem for businesses across Southeast Asia.
“As we work towards our goal of empowering one million businesses with AI by 2030, partnerships with technology providers such as Aurora Mobile can help us accelerate the practical adoption of AI across our ecosystem,” said Mr. Chan Kee Siak, Founder and CEO of Exabytes Group. “Through this collaboration, we look forward to exploring how GPTBots.ai and EngageLab can complement our existing capabilities and help businesses translate AI adoption into meaningful operational outcomes.”
