Step 3 Real-time monitoring alerts for AI vendor political risks

Problem

Korean IT companies and startups rely heavily on US AI APIs from providers like Anthropic and OpenAI for core services. However, geopolitical risks—such as supply chain risk designations, export controls, and sanctions by the US government—fluctuate frequently. CTOs and technical leaders spend 3-5 hours per week manually monitoring US policy news, and sudden policy changes can require 2-4 weeks of emergency vendor migration efforts.

Solution

The service crawls US executive orders, congressional bills, and Department of Commerce notices in real time, automatically analyzes the impact on the AI vendors the user is using, and sends alerts via Slack or email. It provides a vendor alternative matrix and migration difficulty scores to support contingency planning.

Target: CTOs and technical leaders at Korean IT startups with 10-100 employees that use US AI APIs.
Revenue Model: SaaS monthly subscription at 49,000 KRW (approx. $36.75) per team (tracking up to 5 vendors); Premium at 99,000 KRW (approx. $74.25) per team (unlimited vendors + alternative vendor migration guides); 20% discount for annual billing.
Ecosystem Role: Infrastructure
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
