Rosary Labs: Vertical AI Built for O&G, Law & Utilities?

Every oil & gas company wants better & faster insights from their deep and complex. Can Rosary Labs’ AI tools deliver smarter decisions, or is it just more AI hype?

Rosary Labs began life as V-Cred under PETRONAS Innovation Garage, aiming to close the SME credit gap with alternative data. Fast forward to today, the rebranded AI startup is carving out a niche in high-value enterprise sectors (energy, utilities, and legal) developing vertical AI tools that help experts extract insights and act on complex data.

Co-founders Lau May and Tan Nian Wei break down their journey from corporate incubator to bootstrapped startup backed by Cradle, MYHackathon, and MPRC. We explore how Rosary Labs uses large language models and intelligent agentic workflows to support subject matter experts, the commercialisation strategy behind their enterprise products, and the challenges of selling AI to industries steeped in legacy systems.

We also unpack their projected seven-figure revenue, evolving pricing models, and long-term vision to remove data friction, one domain at a time.
