QA quick check on Indonesia's official
registry reveals something worth noting for
every tech founder and investor.
I searched “jatevo" on the Komdigi PSE
portal (Penyelenggara Sistem Elektronik)
Result: No data — 0 of 0 rows.
Yet Jatevo Labs Limited is a valid, registered
company in Hong Kong (Unit 2A, 17/F,
Glenealy Tower, Central, Hong Kong).
It serves as the APAC R&D and partnerships
hub for the Jatayu Vortex (Jatevo) Al
platform (jatevo.ai / jatavo.id), a fast LLM
inference and decentralized GPU network.
The platform is built and actively operated
from Indonesia by founder Luca Cada Lora, a
Bandung-based entrepreneur (Chemical
Engineering, ITB). indonesian users are
actively using the service.
Key compliance considerations this raises:
1. PSE Registration (Komdigi)
Under Government Regulation No. 71 of
2019 concerning the Implementation of
Electronic Systems and Transactions, and
Minister of Communication and Digital Affairs
Regulation No, 5/2020 (as amended by
Regulation No. 10/2021), any electronic
system operator — domestic or foreign —
that provides services to Indonesian users
must register as a PSE.
This applies to Al platforms, APIs, and
inference services. Non-registration can lead
to administrative sanctions, including
temporary or permanent access restrictions.
2. Foreign Investment Rules
Foreign companies conducting business
activities in Indonesia are generally required
to establish a proper Indonesian legal entity
(typically a PT PMA) and obtain the
necessary investment licenses through the
OSS system, in accordance with Law No. 25
of 2007 on Capital Investment. Operating
directly through a foreign entity without the
required local structure may be considered
non-compliant foreign investment.
While Jatevo Labs Limited is a legitimate
Hong Kong company and the team has
shown impressive execution in building Al
infrastructure from indonesia, the absence of
“jatevo" in the public PSE database
highlights a potential regulatory gap that
deserves attention.
For Luca Cada Lora and the team operating
from Bandung:
Proactive registration and clear corporate
structuring would strengthen the foundation
for long-term, compliant growth in one of
Southeast Asia's fastest-growing digital
markets.
Indonesia's Al and digital ecosystem is full of
opportunity. The companies that treat
regulation as a core part of product strategy
will be the ones that scale sustainably and
attract serious capital.
Have you checked whether your platform
appears in the official PSE registry?
What steps are you taking to stay compliant
as you scale?
