About Sala

What is Sala?
Most schools and universities in Cambodia and Southeast Asia manage admissions in one tool, learning in another, and career placement not at all. Sala replaces that fragmentation. We give institutions one AI-powered platform that connects the full student journey from enrollment to employability. 50+ institutions across Cambodia and Malaysia run on Sala today, supporting 120,000+ students.
Who is Sala for?
Sala is built for universities, TVET institutes, schools, and career centers and for the ministries and development partners that support them. If your institution is managing student data across disconnected systems, Sala gives you one connected platform with visibility across admissions, academics, and careers.
Which countries does Sala operate in?
Sala is live across Cambodia and Malaysia, with plans to expand across the region. The company is headquartered in Singapore with a Cambodia office in Phnom Penh.
When was Sala founded and who is behind it?
Sala (legal name Salatech Pte Ltd) was founded in 2019 and has been in market for six years. It is trusted by ministries and development partners, including Cambodia's Ministry of Education, Youth & Sport (MoEYS), and works alongside USAID / ELIX Foundation and the National Committee for Lifelong Learning.

Platform & product

What does the Sala platform include?
The platform brings together admissions, academics and student management, and careers in one place. Two AI products sit on top: Hero AI for career guidance and Prism AI for admissions screening. Everything runs on one platform with complete visibility for your team. See the full platform overview.
What are Hero AI and Prism AI?
Hero AI is a personal career advisor for every student, matching them to paths based on personality, academic history, and real labor-market data. Prism AI helps institutions screen and admit students more fairly and efficiently — turning weeks of manual review into minutes.
Does Sala support TVET institutes and vocational schools?
Yes. Alongside universities, schools, and career centers, Sala is built for TVET institutes and vocational schools, with workflows for admissions, student management, and career placement tailored to skills-based programs. See solutions.
Is Sala available in Khmer and English?
Yes. Sala's student-facing experience, including Hero AI, is available in Khmer and English so students can use it in the language they are most comfortable with.
Can Sala work with our existing systems and data?
