AI Voucher supplier — NIPA

MKD Co., Ltd. has been officially selected as an AI Voucher supplier by the National IT Industry Promotion Agency (NIPA). With this selection, domestic companies can now adopt MKD's enterprise AI platform, Keural, using government support, and MKD has formalized its standing as a government-accredited supplier of cloud-based AI solutions.

Operated by NIPA under the Ministry of Science and ICT, the AI Voucher program is a government initiative designed to accelerate AI adoption among small and medium-sized enterprises. It provides vouchers to companies seeking to integrate AI into their business, subsidizing the cost of adopting solutions from accredited suppliers. By lowering the financial barrier to AI adoption, the program makes enterprise-grade technology — which previously required significant upfront investment — accessible to a much broader range of companies.

With MKD's designation as a supplier, companies across various industries can now subscribe to Keural using AI Voucher support. Keural is a cloud-native enterprise AI platform that delivers AI-powered capabilities — document automation, intelligent data processing, bilingual language understanding, and enterprise RAG — through a subscription model, without the need for complex on-premise infrastructure. For companies considering AI adoption, this means they can start with a government-accredited platform at a significantly lower cost.

This AI Voucher selection is especially meaningful in the context of MKD's strategic shift. As the company transitions from a project-based delivery model to a scalable SaaS model, being included in a government-supported procurement channel dramatically broadens its potential customer base. Companies that previously hesitated to adopt AI due to cost or complexity can now leverage Keural's capabilities through a structured and subsidized onboarding path.

The selection also reflects the maturity of MKD's platform. Becoming a NIPA AI Voucher supplier requires meeting rigorous standards for technical reliability, security, and practicality. Passing this evaluation officially demonstrates that Keural is not only technically advanced but also ready for broad enterprise deployment in the domestic market.

A representative from MKD said, "The AI Voucher selection means that every company in Korea looking to adopt AI now has a clear, supported path to Keural. We aim to make enterprise AI accessible to everyone, and this program powerfully advances that mission."
