- Nota Inc. is a South Korea-based artificial intelligence technology company that specializes in hardware-aware AI model optimization and on-device edge AI deployment solutions. Founded in 2015 as a spin-off from KAIST and headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, with international offices in the United States and Germany, the company develops proprietary software and platform technologies designed to automate the compression, acceleration, and deployment of heavy deep learning models onto resource-constrained edge hardware without substantial loss in accuracy.
The company operates primarily through its flagship platform and specialized domain-specific solutions, which include NetsPresso, an automated hardware-aware AI model optimization platform offering neural architecture search, model pruning, quantization, and automated compilation across diverse target processing units including CPUs, GPUs, NPUs, and DSPs; Nota ITS (Intelligent Transportation System), an edge-AI traffic management and smart infrastructure platform providing real-time vehicle classification, traffic flow analysis, pedestrian detection, and incident monitoring; Nota DMS (Driver Monitoring System), an automotive in-cabin computer vision solution engineered for embedded automotive systems-on-chip to monitor driver attentiveness, drowsiness, gaze direction, and occupant safety; and custom on-device AI engineering and integration services for edge devices, smart security, industrial robotics, and consumer electronics.
In recent developments, Nota Inc. has pursued a public listing on the Korea Exchange (KRX: 486990) under the technology-special growth track, following the completion of multi-stage venture financing rounds totaling over 40 billion KRW backed by prominent institutional investors such as STIC Ventures, LB Investment, Korea Development Bank, Stonebridge Ventures, and Samsung Venture Investment. The company has also expanded its commercial technology partnerships with global semiconductor and hardware leaders including NVIDIA, ARM, Qualcomm, Intel, STMicroelectronics, and Renesas Electronics, in addition to collaborative automotive programs with Hyundai Motor Group. To address evolving market demands, Nota Inc. has recently expanded its product capabilities into the on-device generative AI sector, introducing optimization modules for lightweight large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) tailored for next-generation on-device computing across North America, Europe, and Asia.
