Problem

Twenty universities must develop new AI foundational courses for non-CS majors, but most faculty only have experience teaching CS students and struggle to design curricula at the right level for non-technical learners. From course design to lab environment setup to assessment rubric creation, each professor spends an average of 200–300 hours — and all 20 universities are redundantly building from scratch.

Solution

Provides an AI foundational Education curriculum framework and auto-generates department-specific (business, design, law, etc.) lab scenarios, assignments, and assessment rubrics. Cross-references a database of other universities' examples to output specific lesson plans like 'AI data analysis lab, Week 4 assignment for 3rd-year business majors.'

Target: Professors and curriculum developers at universities establishing AI foundational courses, especially those in non-STEM departments
Revenue Model: University license ~$1,425 per semester per department (1,900,000 KRW, up to 5 professors). Individual professor plan ~$36.50/month per account (49,000 KRW). Priced to be eligible for government project funding.
