Problem

With a wave of telecom AI solutions unveiled at MWC, Korean telecom carriers and MVNOs are evaluating AI adoption, but struggle to quantify the ROI (operational efficiency gains vs. deployment costs) of each solution. AI solution vendors (10–30 employees) also spend 1–2 weeks per deal calculating customer-specific ROI for proposals, and over 50% of pitches fail due to lack of objective supporting evidence.

Solution

A tool where telecom AI solution vendors (1) input a prospect's infrastructure scale (number of base stations, subscribers, ARPU), (2) auto-generate cost-benefit models by solution type (network optimization, churn prediction, fault prediction, etc.), and (3) produce a proposal-ready ROI report highlighting competitive differentiators. Built-in Korean telecom market benchmark data provides a key advantage.

Target: Sales and pre-sales engineers at telecom AI solution vendors (10–50 employees), ages 30–40
Revenue Model: SaaS monthly plan at KRW 149,000/mo (~$112/mo) for 10 reports, additional reports at KRW 29,000 each (~$22). White-label option (vendor branding) at KRW 290,000/mo (~$218/mo).
Ecosystem Role: Supplier
