ePLDT Partners with Straits Interactive to Simplify Enterprise AI Adoption

January 2026

ePLDT, the ICT arm of PLDT, has partnered with Singapore-based Straits Interactive to help Philippine organizations adopt generative AI more easily and securely. The collaboration introduces a no-code GenAI solution that enables enterprises to deploy AI applications quickly without the need for specialized AI or machine learning teams.

At the center of the offering is Straits Interactive’s no-code platform, which allows business users and domain experts to build AI chatbots and applications without writing code. This significantly shortens time-to-market and lowers the barrier to AI adoption, while maintaining strong data protection and governance standards. One featured solution, DPOinBOX.AI, supports data protection officers by automating privacy risk assessments and compliance tasks, enabling organizations to use large language models without compromising data security.

Beyond technology deployment, ePLDT and Straits Interactive will provide training, consultancy, and ongoing support to promote meaningful and sustainable AI adoption. The partnership also offers multi-LLM architecture and customizable knowledge systems, giving enterprises flexibility to adapt as AI technologies evolve. Together, the two companies aim to make AI more accessible, trusted, and practical for Philippine businesses navigating an increasingly AI-driven landscape.
