Rebuilder AI (CEO Kim Jung-hyun) , a 3D modeling AI technology startup, announced on the 12th that it had secured 4.5 billion won in pre-A round funding. This round was participated by ASICS Ventures, the corporate venture capital (CVC) of ASICS Japan, Medici Investment, IBK Capital, and the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund.
Rebuilder AI has developed its own AI engine that automatically generates realistic 3D data from 2D images. Building on this technology, the company launched "VRIN 3D," which allows users to scan actual products using a smartphone to create high-quality 3D content. This year, the company launched "VRING:ON," an integrated solution that automatically generates everything from sketch images to 3D modeling, manufacturing patterns, and CAD data.
'VRING:ON' is recognized as a practical AI technology that bridges the gap between design and manufacturing, and won the Innovation Award in the Fashion Tech and AI category at CES 2026.
Rebuilder AI has also developed an "agent-based AI design system" that automatically generates precise parametric 3D data required for shoe design and sole structure simulation. Its unique feature is its ability to generate sophisticated data based on materials and manufacturing methods. Building on this technology, Rebuilder AI successfully attracted investment from ASICS Ventures and signed a software licensing agreement.
The company is also expanding its performance in overseas markets, including signing a contract with Saudi Arabia to introduce AI technology for furniture design and manufacturing processes, and a $1 million software customization and licensing agreement with a Hong Kong ODM factory.
Kim Jung-hyun, CEO of Rebuilder AI, stated, "This investment is a testament to our AI technology's competitiveness in the global market. This integrated solution, which automatically generates everything from design sketches to manufacturing data, will dramatically reduce product development time and costs." He added, "We plan to expand our business beyond manufacturing and commerce, including shoes and furniture, into diverse industries."
