[Digital Today reporter Chi-gyu Hwang] PosFaceLab, an AI data partner for the food and beverage business, said on Wednesday it has been selected as a supplier for the 2026 Data Voucher Support Program hosted by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the Korea Data Agency.

PosFaceLab has been selected as a supplier a total of five times through this year, following selections in 2020, 2022, 2024 and 2025.

The Data Voucher Support Program provides government vouchers to small and medium-sized enterprises and startups that need data-driven business innovation, covering the cost of data purchase, processing and analysis. Through the selection, franchise headquarters will be able to build PosFaceLab’s AI business management solution, Puree Watch HQ, with government support.

Puree Watch HQ is an integrated business management system for franchise headquarters. It supports real-time monitoring by integrating dispersed operational data, including delivery apps and POS systems, as well as profit-and-loss status across all franchise stores.

PosFaceLab Chief Executive Seung Young-wook said, "PosFaceLab is an AI data partner that goes beyond simply providing solutions to help food-service businesses make more essential decisions based on data." He said, "This data voucher program will be the best opportunity for franchise headquarters to defend against the increasingly complex risks of the Franchise Business Act with AI without a cost burden and to establish a management safety device that can automate more than 90 percent of supervisors' administrative work."
