DippingSource Unveils 'StoreCare' Store Management AI at COMEUP 2025, Boosting Sales by 30%

## Deeping Source Leads Retail Innovation with AI Store Management Solution ‘Store Care’ AI retail tech company Deeping Source will participate in 'COMEUP 2025', a global startup festival held at COEX in Seoul from October 10th to 12th, to unveil its next-generation AI store management solution 'Store Care'. 'Store Care', which will be presented through a large-scale booth, is expected to maximize the operational efficiency of offline stores and accelerate digital transformation with its innovative AI-based technology. Deeping Source's 'Store Care' is a solution that real-time analyzes in-store CCTV footage with AI to automatically detect various operational problems and assist in their resolution. It promptly identifies issues easily overlooked by managers, such as out-of-stock products, declining store cleanliness, or equipment malfunctions, and provides notifications to staff. This enables AI to identify critical problems, allowing for quick and efficient responses without the need for frequent manager patrols. Notably, the core competitive advantage of 'Store Care' lies in its 'data anonymization' technology. It is designed to inherently prevent privacy infringement concerns that may arise during video analysis, allowing for secure data utilization. This acts as a strong advantage, facilitating the application of the solution even in global markets with strict personal information protection regulations. Deeping Source has already proven the effectiveness of 'Store Care' through successful collaborations with domestic and international retail companies. Following the signing of a business agreement with BGF Retail (CU) last August, it was introduced to large retail stores such as Lotte World, achieving remarkable results by increasing actual sales by approximately 30%. Deeping Source's strong performance is also prominent in the global market. In June, it secured a strategic investment from Japan's KDDI Corporate Venture Fund, laying the groundwork for overseas market expansion. In July, it participated as a technology partner in the first 'Real×Tech Lawson' innovative store, jointly operated by KDDI and Lawson, receiving recognition for its global technological prowess. Currently, Deeping Source's overseas sales account for over 50% of its total revenue, and it is actively expanding its business operations, centering on the Japanese and North American markets. Kim Tae-hoon, CEO of Deeping Source, stated, "'Store Care' is a solution that balances the two important values of personal information protection and technological innovation. Through this COMEUP exhibition, we aim to widely publicize our proven technological capabilities and actively support offline stores in achieving true digital transformation."
