Kolon Benit said on the 5th that Lesser, a participant in its AI alliance, built an "AI archive solution" for the Korean Committee for UNICEF and began operating it in February.
Kolon Benit is pursuing a "corporate AX marketplace" strategy that analyzes AX tasks of corporations based on the AI alliance and connects them with suitable specialist companies. This project is an early case of that strategy, with Kolon Benit designing the collaboration structure with Lesser and supporting the buildout.
The "AI archive solution" supplied by Lesser is a system that helps efficiently manage 8TB of unstructured data—including photos, videos, and documents—accumulated during fundraising and child rights advancement projects. It applied Multimodal AI technology to implement natural-language search.
Through this, the Korean Committee for UNICEF reduced content search time by more than 90% compared with before. It noted that it created an environment that reduces repetitive material searches and allows a focus on key tasks such as donor communications and project planning.
Lesser CEO Sim Gyu-hyeon said, "This is a case of AI technology being used in the field," and added, "We will support work innovation through collaboration between demand-side corporations and technology companies."
Kang Jae-hun, head of the AX Commerce Team at Kolon Benit, said, "This case shows that the AI alliance is a structure that connects corporations and technology companies," and added, "We will expand commercialization opportunities for domestic AI corporations."
Meanwhile, Kolon Benit operates an AI alliance with participation from about 90 AI specialist corporations and supplies solutions such as a vision AI-based visual language model (VLM) video control solution and a personal information de-identification solution.
