Step 3 Self-assessment and step-by-step AI adoption roadmap design tool

Problem

SME exporters with annual revenue of $7.5M-$75M recognize the need for AI adoption but don't know where to start. Engaging consulting firms costs $15,000-$37,500 per engagement. The actual adoption process averages 6-12 months, during which the technology gap with competitors widens and export competitiveness declines. A Korea International Trade Association survey showing only 17% of companies actively using AI—despite broad awareness—underscores this entry barrier.

Solution

Users input their industry, company size, export products, and existing IT Infrastructure to receive an AI-generated customized adoption roadmap including priority application areas, required technology stack, estimated costs, and government subsidy matching. Step-by-step checklists and vendor matching features enable self-service AI adoption planning.

Target: Management planning leads or CEOs of SME exporters with $7.5M-$75M annual revenue, primarily in manufacturing and distribution

Revenue Model: Basic assessment free, detailed roadmap generation at $217 Per Transaction, Monthly Subscription (progress tracking + vendor matching) at $74/month

Ecosystem Role: Infrastructure
