Subsidy Settlement Automation SaaS

2.90

Derivation Chain

Step 1 Public subsidy policy controversy
Step 2 Surge in municipal subsidy disbursement & settlement workload
Step 3 Automated settlement document verification & Report generation

Problem

As municipalities rapidly create new cash-equivalent subsidies every election season, local government finance officers face enormous workloads for recipient eligibility verification, duplicate benefit prevention, and disbursement performance reporting. Each program requires an average of 2-3 staff members spending 3-4 weeks on manual Excel-based settlement, with constant audit risk from the Board of Audit and Inspection.

Solution

Integrates with the municipal finance system (e-Hojo) disbursement data to provide automated cross-verification of recipient eligibility (against National Tax Service, health insurance, and resident registration records), duplicate benefit detection, and automatic generation of disbursement performance Reports. Audit-ready evidence materials are automatically archived with timestamps.

Target: Welfare policy and finance division officials at 226 municipal governments, especially mid-sized cities with populations of 100,000-500,000
Revenue Model: B2G SaaS annual contract ~$9,000-$27,000/municipality (12-36 million KRW, 3 tiers by population size). Initial implementation consulting billed separately.
Ecosystem Role: Infrastructure
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
