Why Bangkok Businesses Need This First

Most businesses are ready for AI.
Almost none know where to start.

01 — Direction

AI vendors show you a demo of what AI can do in general — then send a proposal for their product, without checking whether it fits your data or your highest-cost problem.

You pay to find out the fit after you sign. Businesses that deploy without a structured assessment are three times more likely to report no measurable ROI in year one. The Assessment flips the sequence: diagnosis before deployment, evidence before money. (McKinsey: State of AI 2024)

02 — Data Reality

Most businesses assume their data isn't ready for AI. Most of the time they're wrong — they just don't have a clear picture of what they have and what it can do.

The Data Infrastructure Audit maps every data source in your operation — ERP, spreadsheets, documents, transaction records. You leave knowing exactly what is usable today, what needs 30 days of preparation, and what an AI deployment connects to on day one. No guesswork.

ETDA · 2025

80% of Thai businesses are still trying to figure out where AI fits in their operation. The main reason: no clear picture of the return in their specific business. That is exactly what the Assessment delivers — for your operation, using your numbers. (Thailand Digital Outlook 2024 · 580 Thai businesses surveyed)

Three reasons Bangkok businesses start here
PDPA & Compliance

Your team uses ChatGPT, Gemini, or Copilot with real business data — and your legal contact has flagged it as a risk

The Assessment maps your exact PDPA exposure and delivers a written compliance report with a private alternative your lawyer can sign off on before anything changes.

Operations & Growth

You want AI to cut costs and speed up operations — but you don't know which process gives you the best return first

The Assessment maps your business and delivers a ranked action plan specific to your operations, your data, and your actual cost structure — not generic benchmarks.

Private AI Infrastructure

You want an AI system that runs inside your own infrastructure — not on foreign servers — and connects to your actual business data

The Assessment defines the right private AI architecture for your setup: what it connects to, how it runs inside your own systems, and what it will cost to build and operate.

Who Does the Work

The Team
You Can Trust.

I am Den Unglin, Managing Director of UNGLIN Co. Ltd., Bangkok. I built this assessment methodology from 18+ years of direct P&L responsibility — as a founder, CEO, M&A advisor, and Chief AI Strategy Officer — across more than 50 business types in 12 country markets.

I have been inside enough operations to know that the difference between a Thai business that gets real ROI from AI and one that wastes ฿1M+ on a failed deployment is almost never the technology. It is the sequence: diagnosis first, deployment second.

Every assessment is conducted by me personally — not a junior analyst following a template. You get direct access to the person who has built and exited businesses across the industries you operate in.

What the Assessment Found
Trading business · ฿180M revenue · 3 business lines

The assessment identified ฿1.2M in annual operational leakage — inside a business that thought it was running fine.

A Bangkok trading group. 200 staff. Finance closing books 12 days after month-end. Leadership operating on week-old data. Staff quietly routing internal documents through public AI tools — compliance had flagged it but had no private alternative to offer.

The assessment mapped 4 disconnected systems and identified a procurement anomaly that had been silently eroding working capital for 8 months. It had appeared in every report. Nobody had seen it because no single view connected the numbers across divisions.

The assessment delivered the blueprint. Deployment resolved the problem. Total time from first call to working system: 7 weeks.

What You Receive

Six documents. Yours to keep.

Delivered Day 10 · In person · Bangkok
01

Data Infrastructure Audit

What data you have, where it lives, and whether it's AI-ready — confirmed before any budget is committed.

We start here. We map every data source in your operation — ERP, spreadsheets, transaction records, documents. You receive a clear picture of what is usable today, what needs 30–60 days of preparation, and what an AI deployment can connect to on day one. Everything that follows is built on this.

02

AI Opportunity Map

Every process in your business ranked by AI return — built from the data audit findings, not assumptions.

Each area of your operation scored by cost reduction potential, speed gain, and risk reduction. Weighted by your confirmed data readiness and deployment complexity. Prioritised so your first decision is the right one — with evidence behind each ranking.

03

ROI Projection Model

Financial return for your top 3 AI use cases — built from your actual numbers, not industry benchmarks.

Derived from your Data Audit and Opportunity Map — so every projection reflects your real cost structure and process volumes, not averages. Conservative payback periods and measurable KPIs. The document your MD needs before approving a single baht of deployment spend.

04

Private AI Architecture Plan

The exact AI system that fits your infrastructure — designed around your highest-return opportunity.

Recommended model and deployment approach for your specific setup. Integration points with your ERP, CRM, or custom systems. On-premise vs. hybrid analysis for your situation. No proprietary lock-in — the plan works with any provider you choose.

05

Thai PDPA Compliance Report

Every AI tool your team uses today, assessed for legal exposure — written and ready for your lawyer.

Which tools currently send your business data to foreign servers. What your legal risk is today. What the private architecture removes from your risk register. Written in plain language your legal contact can review and act on immediately.

06

90-Day Deployment Roadmap

A week-by-week action plan ready to execute — including staff readiness and change management.

Phased plan for your highest-priority use case. Team requirements, budget breakdown, integration sequence. Includes which staff roles change and how — the #1 reason AI deployments fail in smaller businesses is not technology but adoption. No obligation to deploy with UNGLIN. Ask on the discovery call — we'll show you a redacted extract.

Who This Is For

Bangkok businesses.
Ready to act.

Trading & Distribution

Your margins are thin and your biggest costs are predictable. AI identifies the specific process in your operation where automation pays back fastest — with a payback model built from your actual numbers.

Manufacturing & Production

Your production costs and waste levels are measurable. AI finds the specific line or process where reduction gives you the largest return on your first deployment.

Logistics & Supply Chain

Route optimisation, demand forecasting, warehouse efficiency — the Assessment identifies which node in your operation gives you the fastest measurable return and what it will cost to build.

Retail & Consumer Goods

Inventory, pricing, customer behaviour — AI impact on retail operations is fast and measurable. The Assessment tells you which specific change pays back first in your business.

Professional Services

Your billable time is your main asset. The Assessment identifies which back-office processes to automate first so your team spends more time on revenue-generating work — with a PDPA-compliant architecture.

Family Business & Holding Groups

Multiple operations, no shared AI strategy — the Assessment identifies the one deployment that creates measurable value across your group, with a clear picture of where to start and what it returns.

Right fit — book the discovery call
→฿35M+ annual revenue. The ROI model needs real cost data to generate a return that justifies the assessment fee.
→10 or more people. You have processes. AI reduces the cost of repeatable work — no team means nothing to automate.
→You make the decision. MD, owner, or director level. No 3-month procurement committee process required.
→You want clarity, not a demo. You are ready to look honestly at your operations and act on what you find.
→Your data is imperfect. Messy data is the norm, not the exception. The audit exists to diagnose exactly this.
Not the right fit — save your ฿150,000
✕Under ฿35M revenue. The assessment ROI model will not generate enough return to justify the investment at this stage.
✕Fewer than 10 people. No operational system to analyse. Fix sales volume first — then come back.
✕Requires vendor certification or ISO audit. We will refer you to a firm that can meet those procurement requirements.
✕Looking for AI awareness training for the team. That is a different product — contact us and we will point you in the right direction.
✕Expects a demo and a proposal. We diagnose before we recommend. If you want a product pitched, this is not the right engagement.

The evidence-first sequence

Private AI deployment in Bangkok costs ฿1,000,000–฿30,000,000. Businesses that commit to deployment without a structured assessment are 3× more likely to report no measurable ROI in year one. (McKinsey: State of AI 2024.)

The Assessment gives you the evidence before you commit. You see the ROI model, the architecture, and the compliance picture built from your own numbers. Then you decide — with facts, not a sales pitch.

Client deployments that began with the assessment have returned an average of 3.5× on total investment within the first quarter. (Internal client data, 2024. Anonymised.)

If you deploy with UNGLIN, the full ฿150,000 is credited against deployment — the assessment costs you nothing. If you choose another provider or decide not to deploy, all six documents are yours.

Questions Before You Book

Honest answers. No sales pitch.

Can we see a sample of the deliverables before committing?
Yes. We show a redacted extract from one of the six documents on the discovery call — ask for it directly and we will have it ready. We do not send samples by email before the call, because the documents are built for specific businesses and a generic extract is only meaningful in context. The 30-minute call is the right place to see it and ask questions about it.
Our data is messy and incomplete. Does that mean AI won't work for us?
Almost every business we speak with says this — and almost every time, it is not the blocker they expect. The Data Infrastructure Audit is specifically designed to answer this question for your business. It tells you what data you have that is usable today, what needs 30–60 days of preparation, and what an AI deployment can connect to on day one. You do not need clean data before the assessment. That is exactly what the assessment diagnoses.
Why pay ฿150,000 for an assessment? Can't you just show us a demo?
A demo shows what AI can do in general. The Assessment shows what AI can do in your specific business — using your data, your processes, and your numbers. A demo cannot tell you which process to start with, what your actual ROI will be, or whether your data is ready. The Assessment answers all three — and the deliverables are yours to keep and act on regardless of what you decide next.
We are already looking at ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot. Why would we need this?
ChatGPT and Copilot process your company data on foreign servers — outside Thai jurisdiction and outside PDPA compliance. For many Bangkok businesses this is already a legal risk their lawyer has flagged. The Assessment also evaluates where cloud tools are appropriate for lower-risk parts of your business — you receive an honest recommendation, not a sale for one product type. Some of your operations may be fine on public AI. The Assessment tells you which ones and which aren't.
Do we have to deploy with UNGLIN after the assessment?
No obligation at all. The six documents are yours regardless of what you decide. You can deploy with UNGLIN, deploy with another provider, or hand the roadmap to your own team. If you do choose to deploy with UNGLIN, the full ฿150,000 is credited against your deployment cost — so the assessment costs you nothing. If you don't, you keep everything you received.
How does our data stay private during the assessment?
We sign a full NDA before any work begins. The intake session is in person in Bangkok. All analysis is done on our own secured equipment — no company data is uploaded to any external system. Thai PDPA compliance is maintained throughout the engagement. Your legal contact can review our NDA before you agree to anything.
How much time does our team need to commit?
The in-person intake on Day 1–2 takes 3 to 4 hours — you or your most senior operations person attends. No technical background needed. Our team works independently for Days 3–9 with no input needed from you. On Day 10 we present all findings to your team, typically 2 hours. Total time: approximately 6 hours over 10 business days.
What size and type of business is this designed for?
Bangkok-based businesses with annual revenue of ฿40M or more and at least 10 people. Best fit for trading, manufacturing, logistics, retail, professional services, and family business groups. If your business is smaller, contact us on the discovery call — we will tell you honestly whether the assessment makes sense for your situation right now.
