KUALA LUMPUR: Zetrix AI Bhd and INCEIF University, through its research arm, ISRA Institute, have entered into a strategic collaboration to develop and deploy next-generation Islamic Finance AI Agents built on NurAI.
The initiative aims to enhance how users and faculty access, analyse and synthesise academic literature, while providing intuitive access to shariah-validated Islamic finance information.
The system would integrate directly with INCEIF University’s approved research databases and repositories, support secure document uploads and annotations, and adapt to each user’s academic level to ensure academic integrity, transparency and data privacy.
"The collaboration combines INCEIF University’s institutional expertise in Islamic finance with Zetrix AI’s proprietary NurAI framework, the world’s first shariah-aligned Large Language Model, to deliver reliable insights across foundational principles and contemporary Islamic finance topics," it said in a joint statement.
It noted that users would be able to explore complex Islamic finance topics through natural language queries, receiving responses grounded in credible shariah-validated sources.
Both parties are also working towards establishing a joint oversight committee to ensure that the AI Agents consistently align with ethical shariah standards and governance requirements.
This includes ongoing engagement with relevant authorities, including the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM), as part of broader efforts to reinforce transparency, compliance and public trust.
"By integrating INCEIF University’s academic resources with our NurAI framework, we are providing a solution that preserves the integrity of Islamic principles while leveraging the speed of modern technology.
"This demonstrates how shariah-aligned AI can serve the evolving needs of the global ummah," said Zetrix AI's co-founder Datuk Fadzli Shah. - Bernama
