Problem

With Hyundai's hydrogen hub investments, SMEs in hydrogen refueling stations, fuel cells, and storage facilities are growing. However, hydrogen operations are subject to overlapping regulations from 3+ laws (High-Pressure Gas Safety Act, Occupational Safety and Health Act, Fire Services Act), requiring in-house safety officers to spend 40+ hours per month just understanding regulatory requirements. Non-compliance penalties range from $3,750-$22,500 (5M-30M KRW) and can include business suspension.

Solution

The system structures hydrogen-related legislation (High-Pressure Gas Safety Act, KGS codes, Occupational Safety Act, etc.) and auto-generates compliance checklists by facility type (refueling station/storage facility/fuel cell manufacturing). It provides periodic inspection schedule alerts, regulatory amendment impact analysis, and safety manager training completion tracking.

Target: Hydrogen refueling station operators, hydrogen fuel cell manufacturing SMEs (10-50 employees), safety managers at hydrogen storage and transport companies
Revenue Model: SaaS Monthly Subscription at $52/month per facility (69,000 KRW), multi-site discount ($37/month for 3+ sites). Regulatory amendment flash Report add-on at $14/month
Ecosystem Role: Regulation
