DOUB announced that it has attracted 300 million won of seed investment from POSCO Technology Investment. This investment was made as the 17th POSCO Idea Marketplace IR Contest held in the first half of the year passed the competition and was selected as one of the 10 final investment destinations.
DOUB is a data analysis platform startup. After a year since the launch of a text analysis service that combines deep learning and search algorithms in April 2018, the product has been supplied to six call centers of large financial institutions such as the National Health Insurance Corporation and Mirae Asset Daewoo. In May, we succeeded in commercializing a real-time text analysis service that converts text at the same time as an agent speaks, evaluates compliance with regulations, and recommends knowledge related to counseling topics directly to insurance company call centers.
Gyu-won Lee, chief examiner at POSCO Technology Investment, who made this investment, explained the background of the investment, saying, “DOUB focused on the potential of real-time text analysis technology to be used not only in the financial sector but also in various fields.
Sohn Hyun-gon, CEO of DOUB, said, “With this investment as an opportunity, we will expand core source technologies such as voice recognition and text recognition and focus on technology convergence combined with hardware, and release new products to attract investment in the series stage by the middle of next year.” Our next goal is to successfully settle in the global market.”
