KMS Lab aims to speed up its push into the domestic enterprise market with its AI knowledge platform, K-Portal BrainWeave.

KMS Lab was selected as an operator in June last year and is working on POSCO’s AI-based next-generation groupwide portal, Next EP. It is integrating its self-developed AI solutions into POSCO’s groupwide portal environment.

K-Portal BrainWeave is an AI-based knowledge management platform that turns individuals’ accumulated work experience and expertise into shared organisational assets. It supports business continuity and productivity by systematically accumulating and sharing knowledge dispersed inside a company.

If existing corporate knowledge management systems focused on document storage, search and information sharing, BrainWeave is designed for AI to automatically structure knowledge generated in personal work activities. It is also designed so that knowledge can be transferred to other members or integrated.

When employees record routine work content, AI automatically extracts core keywords, related information, links between documents and summaries. Based on this, it creates a personal knowledge graph called a Second Brain and supports passing accumulated knowledge to colleagues or successors or merging it with other knowledge systems.

This helps organisations minimise the loss of work experience and know-how when staff retire or move departments. It also converts work knowledge that depended on individuals into digital assets at the organisational level and reduces inefficiency that arises in handovers and collaboration.

The POSCO project applies many products that make up K-Portal BrainWeave, including K-Portal Workspace for co-editing and knowledge creation, K-Portal Persona for personal work analysis, K-Portal Automation for workflow automation, K-Portal IFC as an AI training-data processing module, and K-Portal AIUI as an AI-based automatic visualisation solution.

KMS Lab explained that these solutions link to existing internal work systems such as mail, schedules and document management. It said they provide various AI functions based on a large language model, or LLM, operated inside the company.

KMS Lab also emphasises that it implemented key software layers with in-house technology, from LLM serving to data processing and AI applications.

The AI system applied at POSCO is designed to run the LLM in an on-premises internal environment, enabling AI functions without sending internal company data to external generative AI services. The company emphasised that this will be an important competitive factor for manufacturers and large companies concerned about external leakage of technical information and work data.

KMS Lab is working with POSCO and POSCO DX to advance the system, including improving AI response accuracy and expanding the scope of workplace application.

KMS Lab plans to develop its existing AI knowledge platform into an agentic AI structure in which people, corporate systems and AI agents collaborate organically.

It is also developing physical AI technology that combines LLMs with large behaviour models, or LBMs. It aims to expand AI technology accumulated in digital work environments into physical industrial areas such as operating manufacturing-site facilities, robots and autonomous manufacturing.

K-Portal BrainWeave was also selected as an honoree in the Artificial Intelligence category of the CES 2027 Innovation Awards. The product is also set to be displayed at the CES 2027 Innovation Awards Showcase, to be held in Las Vegas in the United States from Jan. 6 to 9, 2027. KMS Lab plans to use the CES Innovation Award selection and its experience building AI systems for major domestic companies as competitiveness for entering global markets.

Bae Hee-jung (배희정), CEO of KMS Lab, said, "An organisation’s most important knowledge is in people’s heads, and it disappears when they leave." She said, "BrainWeave is an AI platform built to leave that knowledge as an organisational asset and enable it to be passed from person to person." She added, "We proved at POSCO that even a small and medium-sized AI company in Korea can supply the full stack with its own technology, from LLM serving to applications, and a product built with that technology passed global screening at CES." She said, "In 2027, we will use CES as a starting point to enter overseas markets in earnest and expand our business areas with agentic AI and physical AI."
