SINGAPORE — In 2022, a young entrepreneur with a vision decided to tackle a growing problem faced by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Singapore: digital transformation.
That entrepreneur is YongLe, the CEO and founder of Guidesify, a Singapore-based startup that has rapidly gained traction for revolutionising how SMEs approach digital and IT challenges.
Starting as a blogger, YongLe began learning about Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and utilising the knowledge to drive traffic to his website.
With his SEO know-how, he soon helped companies like Syfe, Stashaway, and YouTrip to generate leads through online marketing strategies.
His early successes inspired him to help other small businesses take flight too.

To help other small businesses thrive, Guidesify offers tailored e-commerce solutions and digital marketing campaigns centred around SEO.
Today, Guidesify is a pre-approved vendor with IMDA and Enterprise Singapore.
SMEs that seek Guidesify IT services are entitled to 50% grant support (called Productivity Solutions Grant), which will defray the cost of their IT solutions.
Yet, the road does not end there for Guidesify. In fact, it has only just begun.
Revolutionising Digital Transformation Through AI Technologies
Through continuous innovation, particularly in AI-powered tools, YongLe is devising new creative ways to help SMEs in Singapore stay ahead of the curve.

Guidesify’s Commitment to Ethical AI

Recognizing this, Guidesify has ensured that the GenAI SEO Writer includes built-in plagiarism checks, promoting ethical and transparent content creation.
This is particularly beneficial for businesses that curate content from multiple sources, ensuring they can stay compliant while still scaling their digital presence.
“We know that AI can’t replace human creativity,” YongLe explains. “Our tools are designed to make life easier for small businesses, not to take away the human element of business.”
With AI, Guidesify can help companies simplify online processes that were once daunting and out of reach for smaller enterprises so that every company can have a powerful online presence with very little effort.
