Your inventory, now on WhatsApp.
Every day, staff and customers need to know: "Do you have this in stock?" The answer is buried in inventory lists, whispered across counters, or lost in WhatsApp threads. Silvie AI puts the answer on every phone—instantly.
The moment it clicked
A customer walks into Silvie's Industrial Solutions. They need a specific part. Instead of calling a manager or waiting for someone to check a spreadsheet, a staff member opens WhatsApp and types a question. Within seconds, the answer arrives.
This isn't a dream. This is Silvie AI—built in Guyana, for Guyanese businesses, and deployed today.
From a question to a movement
It started with a belief at V75 Inc. and TrueSelph Inc.: AI shouldn't be an imported luxury. It should be a homegrown utility, built by local teams for local challenges.
When IDB Lab awarded grant funding for the AI Enablement Programme, that belief became a mission. The goal was simple but ambitious: work hand-in-hand with Guyanese businesses to turn their everyday challenges into AI-powered prototypes.
The first spark came from Evolve Business Solutions. Together, we built Avi AI—a prototype so powerful it won the Innovate Guyana Prize. That win sent a signal: Guyanese innovation can compete. And more importantly, it can inspire.
The right partners. The right moment
Ms. Avia Lindie of Evolve had become a pioneer. Her success caught the attention of Shanti Persaud, the visionary behind Silvie's Industrial Solutions. Shanti saw what was possible and asked a simple question:
"Can we do that for my business?"
Instead of starting from scratch, we did something better. We formed a channel partnership with Evolve. Avia and her team brought their hard-won expertise. We brought the platform. Shanti brought the vision. Together, we became the right people for the job.
That collaboration wasn't just efficient. It was symbolic. It showed how knowledge, when shared, multiplies.
Meet Silvie AI
Today, Silvie AI lives where customers and staff already are: WhatsApp and the Silvie's website. It handles hundreds of inventory queries daily—checking stock, answering questions, freeing humans to focus on humans.
For staff No more leaving customers waiting while you hunt for information. Just open WhatsApp, ask, and get an instant answer. Serve faster. Serve better.
For customers Have a question about a product? Message Silvie's like you'd message a friend. No app to download. No forms to fill. Just answers.
For Shanti and her team Inventory queries that once interrupted the day now run silently in the background. Staff are more productive. Customers are happier. And the business runs smoother.
What makes it work
Silvie AI looks simple because the complexity is hidden.
- Natural conversation: Staff and customers ask questions normally—"Do you have 2-inch PVC pipes?"—and the AI understands.
- Instant inventory access: Silvie connects directly to product data, returning accurate, real-time answers.
- Always where you are: Deployed on WhatsApp and the website, Silvie meets users in their natural habitat.
- Built to scale: The same approach that serves Silvie's today can serve dozens of businesses tomorrow.
More than a product. A proof point
Look closely at Silvie AI, and you see something bigger. This is a testament to Guyanese excellence.
Together with IDB Lab, Evolve Business Solutions, and Silvie's Industrial Solutions, we've proven that world-class AI solutions can be built here—by our people, for our challenges.
We're shifting the convention. We're showing that the technology transforming global industries doesn't have to arrive on a plane. It can grow right here.
Why it matters
Silvie AI answers inventory questions in seconds. But its real answer is to a bigger question: What's possible when local vision meets local talent?
Faster service. Smarter staff. Happier customers. And a blueprint for every Guyanese business wondering if AI can work for them.
This is the evolution of our local tech ecosystem. And we're just getting started.
