HKChat: a Cantonese-first AI assistant for real life in Hong Kong.

Ask “Where’s the best value dinner in Causeway Bay tonight using my credit card offers?”
HongChat brings together nearby merchant discounts, card / e-wallet rewards and opening hours, then thinks through the options to give you practical, local and accurate suggestions. It can also help you understand everyday legal situations, make sense of financial information, and handle writing, translation and weather-related decisions.

HongChat is built by a local team and designed around how people in Hong Kong actually live.
It understands Cantonese, knows local malls, eateries and neighbourhoods, and when problems get complicated it will “think carefully before answering” – helping you make better choices across deals, law, finance and daily life, instead of throwing out generic one-liners.

You can ask, in natural Cantonese or English:
“On Saturday I’m meeting friends in Mong Kok. Find us somewhere not too expensive with good deals, and tell me which card is best to pay with.”
HongChat will factor in your location, time, budget and risk tolerance, then reason step by step and give you concrete, logically structured suggestions.

【Local deals & daily decision support】

HKChat uses your rough location, time and budget, plus public information about restaurants, malls, supermarkets and other merchants, together with credit card / e-wallet reward rules, to help you:
• Compare how much you actually save under different deal combinations
• Fit everything into your actual schedule and movements, not just show a list of random offers

You spend less time jumping between multiple deal apps and maps, and more time just picking the option that fits you.

【Everyday legal context & guidance】

For common situations like tenancy issues, simple employment questions, online shopping disputes or basic contract terms, HongChat can:
• Highlight usual risks and possible directions you might consider
• Remind you when you should talk to a professional lawyer instead

It helps you “get the rough picture” of where you stand and what options might exist, before you spend time and money on formal legal advice. (It does not replace a lawyer or constitute formal legal advice.)

【Financial insight assistant (not investment advice)】

HKChat can help you understand stocks, funds, indices and sector moves by:
• Summarising how recent news or industry changes might relate to certain assets

The focus is on clarifying logic and risk so you can think more clearly, not on telling you what to buy or sell. It is not an investment advisor and does not make trading decisions for you.

【Deep thinking for more accurate answers】

Before replying, HKChat will:
• Break down what problem you’re really trying to solve
• Check whether your conditions and assumptions conflict or are incomplete
• Within the limits of available information, give you a clear conclusion and actionable steps

The goal is answers that are reliable and usable in the real world, not pretty phrases that fall apart once you try to act on them.

【Weather turned into actual decisions】

Instead of only showing temperature or rain / typhoon signals, HongChat will:
• Look at your original plan (e.g. hiking, outdoor events, boating, running) and suggest whether to change date, time or location
• Highlight key safety, transport or schedule risks that the weather may bring

【Cantonese and local experience】

HKChat supports Cantonese input and natural responses, understands local expressions and place names, and explains things the way Hong Kong people actually talk.

Whether you want to squeeze the most out of local deals, understand how a situation roughly works from a legal point of view, or think more clearly about finance, weather and daily choices, just ask in Cantonese or English — HKChat will think deeply and aim to give you the most accurate, Hong Kong–specific answer it can.
