Step 2 Expansion of dual-use technology exports

→

Step 3 Self-assessment tool for export control classification

Problem

Startups commercializing dual-use (military-civilian) technologies through civil-military technology cooperation must apply to the Strategic Trade Control Center for pre-classification to determine whether their products are controlled items before exporting. This process takes an average of 4-6 weeks. Without being able to pre-assess classification status, startups miss export contract windows or waste time filing unnecessary classification requests for non-controlled technologies.

Solution

Provides a structured database of the Strategic Trade Control Consolidated Notice technical items + automatic matching of control items and likelihood scores when users input their technology specs + auto-generation of pre-classification application drafts.

Target: Export managers or CTOs at tech startups with 5-30 employees pursuing overseas export of dual-use technologies (software, sensors, communications)

Revenue Model: 3 free self-checks per month + Premium unlimited plan at 59,000 KRW (~$44)/month + AI draft generation at 50,000 KRW (~$37) per transaction
