YS Meta, which develops an AI-based global consulting platform, announced that it has been selected for the Ministry of SMEs and Startups' '2025 Tech Service Export Voucher 2nd Recruitment' project, securing 50 million won in export support funds to conquer overseas markets.
YS Meta is a technology startup that developed "Localin," a platform that supports multilingual consultations based on AI translation, summarization, and consultation technology. As a resident company of the 2nd Seoul Fintech Lab, its goal is to address the challenges faced by foreigners, small business owners, and tourists who have struggled to access consultation services due to language, cultural, and institutional barriers.
Localin integrates features that support a global consulting environment, including real-time translation consultations, AI-powered automated response chatbots, consultation summaries, expert introduction pages, and multilingual website creation. This provides a structure that allows professionals in legal, labor, and loss assessment, as well as in the K-beauty, tourism, and lifestyle services sectors, to easily connect with international customers.
This service is considered a platform that can be immediately utilized by actual demand groups, including Hallyu and K-beauty tourists, foreign workers, and small business owners with a large number of foreign customers. With this export voucher selection, YS Meta plans to strengthen its local presence by expanding its overseas cloud infrastructure, promoting global marketing, localizing the UI/UX, and integrating with overseas partners.
Localin focuses on using technology to address issues such as language barriers, lack of access to information, and a shortage of consultants. By automating multilingual inquiry responses, it supports cost savings and improved customer experiences for tourism, retail, and service companies. YS Meta also aims to expand its services to immigrant consultation SaaS for public institutions and multicultural centers, building a portfolio that combines both social value and business viability.
CEO Lee Yong-seok explained that the platform is designed to solve structural problems faced by locals, foreigners, and small business owners. He also announced plans to enhance multilingual consulting capabilities, focusing on overseas markets, and to fully pursue global expansion starting with the Asian and Southeast Asian markets in 2026.
