AI O2O Introduces AI-Based Raw Material Purchase Negotiation Automation Solution to Target Manufacturing Market

AI O2O (CEO Ahn Sung-min), a company specializing in vertical AI solutions, participated in the 'Photonics Korea 2025' exhibition held in Gwangju, where it showcased an AI-based raw material purchase negotiation automation solution for optical convergence manufacturing companies, signaling a full-scale entry into the manufacturing market. At the exhibition, AI O2O demonstrated a solution that automates the raw material purchase process for manufacturing companies in the optical convergence industry using AI. Key manufacturers in the optical convergence sector participated in the event and showed high interest. The optical convergence industry is a future core industry that merges optical technology with advanced manufacturing fields such as semiconductors, displays, sensors, and telecommunications. Given the nature of dealing with highly segmented raw materials like optical components, lasers, optical fibers, and photonics devices, manufacturers often dedicate significant time and personnel to complex specification negotiations and repetitive price bargaining. AI O2O emphasized that the uniquely inefficient purchase negotiation process in manufacturing can be innovated with AI, drawing a positive response from optical convergence manufacturers. AI O2O's AI negotiation solution dramatically reduces the workload of purchasing managers by providing a conversational negotiation agent based on learning from past transaction data to suggest optimal prices, compare real-time market prices, and analyze supplier-specific terms. Optical convergence manufacturers, who previously thought there was little room for negotiation due due to complex raw material specifications and a limited number of suppliers, were impressed by how the AI analyzes past data to present optimal purchase timing and negotiation strategies. They evaluated it as a practical solution that can enhance the purchasing competitiveness of small and medium-sized manufacturers. AI O2O is using its participation in the 'Photonics Korea 2025' exhibition, held to commemorate 'Optical Convergence Industry Day,' as an opportunity to formally extend its existing B2B negotiation solutions, which were primarily focused on distribution and logistics, into the realm of raw material purchasing for manufacturing. The optical convergence industry is one of the government's 'Six Strategic Technologies' and is a high value-added sector projected to grow to a market size of over 100 trillion won by 2030. Small and medium-sized manufacturers often struggle to secure cost competitiveness due to weaker purchase negotiation power compared to large corporations and inefficient, manual processes. AI O2O's solution helps these smaller manufacturers reduce purchase costs and standardize negotiation processes by leveraging AI technology. "Because optical convergence manufacturers deal with raw materials of complex specifications, AI negotiation automation will become a core tool that goes beyond simply saving time, by enhancing cost competitiveness through data-driven decision-making," emphasized Ahn Sung-min, CEO of AI O2O. In line with the growing demand for manufacturing Digital Transformation (DX), AI O2O plans to provide a SaaS-based subscription model that is easily adoptable by small and medium-sized manufacturers, thus lowering market entry barriers. Building on successful collaborations with optical convergence manufacturers, the company aims to expand its influence across the advanced manufacturing sector and establish itself as a practical AI solution provider that strengthens the purchasing competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises.
