AWAKENING TAMINGSARI CORE

SOVEREIGN HYBRID 280,000+ personalised AI agents deployed

Sovereign intelligence. Guarded at the gate.

Bentara AI is the hybrid sovereign core behind Malaysia's agentic AI. Its Privacy Gatekeeper screens everything first: only non-confidential information ever reaches the internet or an external LLM. Everything confidential stays in-house on Tamingsari, our multimodal LLM.

The legend, re-engineered

A keris, a herald, and an army.

In the Melaka court, the Bentara stood at the gate and decided who may pass. Taming Sari was the keris that gave a warrior his power. The Pendekar were the warriors themselves. Bentara AI brings the three together as one engine.

01THE GATEKEEPER

Bentara

Privacy & sovereignty layer

Inspects every prompt, file and frame. Classifies it, redacts it, and routes it so confidential data never leaves your network or reaches an outside model.

02THE KERIS

Tamingsari

Multimodal LLM

Bentara's own language model. It understands Bahasa Melayu and English natively, and reads text, listens to audio, watches video and sees images in one model.

03THE WARRIORS

Pendekar

Agentic framework

Specialist AI agents that plan, use tools, remember and work together, from Tuah the executive assistant to Jebat the sales champion.

Sovereign Gatekeeper · live demo

Nothing confidential crosses the gate.

In Bentara's hybrid model, every prompt is read by the Privacy Gatekeeper first. Only non-confidential information is allowed out to the internet or a cloud LLM; anything confidential is redacted and kept on Tamingsari in-house. Pick a sample or paste your own and watch it decide. This demo runs entirely in your browser.

0RISK

TERBUKA · PUBLIC

LAYER 01

Pattern sentinels

Detects identity documents, banking details, phone numbers and emails, plus custom identifiers you define. They are never shown or sent out.

LAYER 02

Semantic classifier

Understands meaning rather than keywords alone: payroll, medical, legal, tender and strategy content in Malay or English.

LAYER 03

Policy engine

Maps content to your classification levels, such as Terbuka, Terhad, Sulit and Rahsia, and to user role and department.

LAYER 04

Route, redact, record

Sends content to the cloud, to on-prem Tamingsari, or to a sealed vault, and writes every decision to an immutable audit log.

Tamingsari LLM

One keris. Four senses.

Tamingsari is Bentara's multimodal language model. It is tuned for how Malaysians actually write and speak, and it can run entirely on your own hardware.

Malaysian-first language

Bahasa Melayu, English and everyday Manglish code-switching, with room to extend to more local languages.

Your knowledge, grounded

Retrieval over your SOPs, policies and archives, with an answer that cites its source document.

Runs where you are

Deploy on-prem on your own GPU servers, at the edge, or in a Malaysian cloud.

Fine-tune privately

Adapt the model to your domain without your training data leaving the building.

Agentic AI framework

It doesn't just answer. It gets it done.

Bentara agents run a continuous loop: they perceive, reason, plan, act with real tools, reflect on the result, and remember what worked. Every step passes the gatekeeper first.

Multi-agent orchestration

A lead agent splits the work across specialists and merges the result.

Tool & API calling

WhatsApp, email, calendars, ERPs, databases and MCP connectors.

Long-term memory

Remembers customers, decisions and context across sessions.

Human-in-the-loop

Approval gates for payments, sends and any irreversible action.

STEP 1 / 6Perceive

Reads the message, file, voice note or image that arrived.

Born on Bentara

Meet the Pendekar.

Every Pendekar.ai agent is a Bentara agent with its own role, tools and character.

Deployment modes

Sovereign by default. Hybrid by design.

Already in the field. Already trusted.

From halal trade to national security and marine assurance, these platforms run on the Bentara core today, with 220,000 personalised agents at MIHAS, 60,000 at TXA and 80,000 expected at AISSE.

Sovereign by design

Your data. Your soil. Your rules.

Data stays in Malaysia

Hosting and inference can run fully within Malaysian borders, or inside your own data centre.

Air-gap ready

Bentara and Tamingsari work with no internet connection at all, which suits defence, government and critical sites.

Built with PDPA in mind

Personal-data detection, consent-aware handling and retention controls support your Personal Data Protection Act 2010 obligations.

Classification-aware

Understands government security levels (Terhad, Sulit, Rahsia) and enforces them automatically.

Role-based access

Agents only see what the person they act for is allowed to see, by department, rank or project.

Immutable audit trail

Every prompt, routing decision and agent action is logged, so you can answer "who sent what, where, and why".
