AI Auto-Optimization Peekaboo Labs Selected for Global Program

## Pikabu Labs Accelerates Global Market Entry with On-Device AI Optimization 'Carve'! Pikabu Labs, a startup developing an innovative on-device AI automatic optimization solution, has proudly secured a spot in the 'Global Expansion Program' co-hosted by Seoul Startup Hub and 500 Global, officially marking its leap onto the world stage. This achievement is recognized as a significant triumph, once again proving Pikabu Labs' unique technological prowess and global market potential. The core solution that Pikabu Labs is meticulously developing is 'Carve'. Carve is a technology that intelligently and automatically optimizes any type of AI model to run with optimal performance across various user-desired device environments, including smartphones, PCs, and even IoT devices. The key to this technology lies in going beyond mere software-based lightweighting. Pikabu Labs possesses unique technological capabilities to implement optimization by deeply delving into hardware levels, such as device chipsets and operating systems (OS). This enables them to create 'on-device exclusive AI models' that maintain the AI model's inherent performance almost perfectly while operating with maximum efficiency and stability on specific devices. This offers an innovative solution to countless companies and developers seeking to effectively utilize complex AI models within limited device environments. Despite being a nascent startup established just over a year ago, Pikabu Labs has already forged industry-leading partnerships, gaining widespread recognition for its technological prowess. It has demonstrated its technological potential by undertaking next-generation technology cooperation projects with Intel, a leader in the global semiconductor market. Furthermore, it is strengthening a close technological partnership with LG, a prominent domestic conglomerate, by jointly pursuing the development of future-oriented home IoT services based on on-device AI. This collaboration with major corporations clearly demonstrates that Pikabu Labs' technology goes beyond mere ideas, exerting powerful competitiveness in real industrial settings. From its early stages, Pikabu Labs has consistently prepared for international expansion, setting the global market, beyond the domestic one, as its core target. The selection for this global expansion program has provided a valuable opportunity to validate their innovative technology and business model in key overseas markets, including North America. Their ultimate goal is to go beyond mere technology validation and, furthermore, establish a solid foundation for generating substantial international revenue and growing into a global enterprise. A Pikabu Labs official expressed strong anticipation for the program selection, emphasizing, "Based on our unique on-device AI optimization technology, we have fully confirmed our potential through successful collaborations with global big tech companies." They further stated with ambitious aspirations, "This global expansion program will be a decisive catalyst to definitively prove the global market competitiveness of the Carve solution and accelerate the delivery of unprecedented innovative AI experiences to users worldwide." Attention is now drawn to whether Pikabu Labs' on-device AI technology will open new horizons in the global AI market.
