Problem

SMEs adopting industrial robots must prepare 7+ regulatory documents under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, including KCs robot safety certification, risk assessment reports, and worker safety training certificates. Hiring a specialist consultant costs ₩5–10 million (~$3,750–$7,500) per case, while self-preparation takes an average of 2 months. This bottleneck is intensifying as supplier robot adoption accelerates due to investments like Hyundai Motor's Saemangeum project.

Solution

Enter the robot model name and installation environment, and AI automatically generates a checklist of required certifications and filings, plus drafts of risk assessment reports and safe work procedure manuals. Core features: (1) Auto-mapping of regulatory requirements by robot model, (2) AI-drafted risk assessment report templates, (3) Submission guides and timeline management for relevant authorities.

Target: Safety managers and plant managers at manufacturing companies with 20–100 employees, aged 40s–50s
Revenue Model: Per Transaction ₩390,000 (~$293) per robot deployment case + Monthly Subscription ₩99,000 (~$74) (regulatory change alerts, automatic document updates)
