On the 18th, DeepFine, an industrial AI (artificial intelligence) platform company based on spatial intelligence, announced that it has secured a Series B funding round of 100 billion won.
Participants in this round include Hyosung Ventures, POSCO Technology Investment, LIG D&A, and IBK Capital. With the completion of the Series B round, cumulative investment reached 180 billion won. In previous rounds, DeepFine had secured investments from the Technology Promotion Fund, IBK Industrial Bank of Korea, Hyundai Motor Group, and LS Group.
Investors reportedly valued DeepFine for its experience in building industrial site solutions and its technology for integration with existing installed systems. Notably, strategic investors with connections to DeepFine’s core industries—logistics, manufacturing, and defense—also participated, raising expectations for business expansion through technical collaboration.
DeepFine is developing an industrial agent platform that digitizes tasks at industrial sites and provides AI-based support. Using technologies such as smart glasses, vision AI, spatial computing, and on-site data analysis, the platform supports work instructions, verification, recording, and analysis.
The company currently supplies solutions to domestic logistics and manufacturing firms and is primarily utilized in industries such as defense and shipbuilding. Recently, it has expanded its business into enterprise-type SaaS (Software as a Service) platforms that integrate with corporate internal systems.
DeepFine plans to use the investment funds to enhance its industrial AI agents and expand its SaaS business into logistics and MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) sectors. It also intends to strengthen operational analysis functions based on industry-specific standard models and on-site data. Funds will be allocated toward preparations for global expansion and recruitment of research and development personnel.
Kim Hyun-bae, CEO of DeepFine, stated, “I believe we were able to secure investment by earning recognition for our achievements in driving digital transformation at industrial sites,” and added, “We will grow into a company that innovates work methods and operational systems at industrial sites using technologies validated on the ground.”
