Live Funding Navigator · Hong Kong AI and SME subsidy screen

Check the funding route before the AI pilot is scoped.

Agent88 turns a Hong Kong SME profile into a funding-intake database, scheme shortlist, missing-document checklist, and human-reviewed application plan before the client commits pilot spend.

Current strategic read

Agent88 optimizes its own story for Cyberport/product-platform readiness, while using BUD/Easy BUD and training subsidies as client-side wedges for JJ/I-Concept and Marcus/RDS.

This page is a showcase, not legal/accounting advice. Funding fit, reimbursement terms, and eligibility must be checked against official scheme rules before any client-facing claim.

Workflow

From company profile to funding shortlist.

The workflow asks the right intake questions, stores the answers as an applicant profile, screens practical routes such as BUD/Easy BUD, training subsidies, Cyberport, and the AI Subsidy Scheme, then generates a human-review report.

Client story

What the client understands in one minute.

Funding Navigator is not a grant guarantee. It is an early funding screen that helps SMEs decide whether an AI/workflow pilot should be framed as business upgrading, training, R&D, Cyberport/startup development, or AI compute usage.

01

Before proposal

Ask 9 funding-intake questions before quoting the pilot as fully out-of-pocket spend.

02

During proposal

Add a funding sidebar: possible routes, missing information, cashflow warnings, and next steps.

03

After approval

If there is a credible fit, prepare the project narrative, document checklist, cashflow warning, and application support plan.

Application database

Compare Agent88, JJ/I-Concept, and Marcus/RDS.

Toggle between applicant profiles. Current recommendation: Agent88 optimizes for Cyberport/product-platform readiness; JJ/I-Concept is the first client-side Funding Navigator pilot; Marcus/RDS is the faster operational proof case.

Sample funding shortlist

Agent88 should optimize for Cyberport/product-platform readiness while using client pilots as proof. BUD is not the first internal route unless a real export/GBA/ASEAN expansion project emerges.

BUD / Easy BUDClient wedge

Possible fit for established HK SMEs if the AI workflow project is framed as business upgrading, digital transformation, or market expansion with a qualifying market angle.

AI training subsidyAdoption angle

Useful when the pilot includes staff onboarding, AI workflow training, and human review procedures. Exact programme/provider rules must be verified.

Cyberport / AI SubsidyCheck carefully

Cyberport/startup routes fit Agent88 productization. The HK$3B AI Subsidy Scheme is mainly for using Cyberport AISC compute, not generic consulting spend.

Intake

The 9 questions the agent asks first.

These create the application database. Without these, the agent must say needs information rather than inventing eligibility.

Dogfood plan

How this becomes the first business case.

We dogfood internally, then use JJ/I-Concept and Marcus/RDS as the first client-side proof cases for the Funding Navigator process.
