Barbitok, a platform for plastic surgery and treatment information, announced on the 20th that it held a workshop at the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Korea headquarters to discuss ways to improve its services using AI technology. The workshop was designed to delve into the potential of AI in the beauty and health sectors and reaffirm the two companies' commitment to continued exchange and cooperation.

The workshop, hosted by Barbitok and AWS, was divided into two sessions. In the first BizTech session, an AWS business development representative presented an e-commerce approach and AI-based productivity enhancements in the beauty and health sectors, while a generative AI service representative introduced AWS generative AI technology. Furthermore, an in-depth discussion ensued with an introduction and demonstration of "Amazon Q Business," an AI assistant designed to enhance business productivity.

The second tech session began with an introduction to Amazon Q Developer, designed to enhance technical productivity. This was followed by technical sessions on generative AI services, survey-based Text2SQL, and an introduction and demo of AI Agent. Amazon Q Developer is a generative AI-based assistant that helps developers understand code, write documentation, and design interfaces in their own language. Technical representatives participated in this session to share with participants ways to increase developer productivity and improve user-centered usability through AI technology.

This workshop was attended by key executives and working-level leaders from both companies. The CTO of Barbitok, along with the CSO, development team leader, planning lead, and strategy and operations team leader, as well as AWS business development, AI, and technology managers, gathered together to affirm the two companies' commitment to deep exchange and collaboration for technological innovation.

Babitok anticipates concrete results from this workshop that will support its practical business strategy and technology roadmap. Specifically, the company plans to apply AI technology across a variety of areas, including automating cloud security reporting using AI, developing an internal data query and analysis system, automating marketing landing pages, and developing a developer code review analysis system, all with the goal of maximizing service efficiency and transforming the user experience.

Babitok CTO Kwon-yeol Choi said, “This workshop with AWS will be an important turning point for Babitok to lead AI-based technological innovation in the beauty and health market beyond a simple technical exchange,” and added, “Through close cooperation with AWS, we plan to apply AI technology to various business areas and accelerate AI innovation in the beauty and health field.”

He continued, “Starting with this workshop, we will further strengthen Barbitok’s technological competitiveness and market leadership, provide more advanced services to users, and take the lead in driving the industry’s digital transformation.”

Meanwhile, Barbitok currently operates its platform based on AWS cloud infrastructure.
