Eco-friendly DIPS picks finalize; advancing AI platform ‘Greenflow’ to strengthen mid-sized firms’ global carbon competitiveness
An artificial intelligence (AI) based carbon accounting and climate tech specialized company Ohdu Du-si Lab (co-CEOs Seol Kyung Seol and Kwang Myung Oh) said Monday that it has been selected as the final pick for ‘2026 DIPS’—a startup project package under the Ministry of SMEs and Startups’ leading-gap startup project.
The leading-gap startup project is a government-backed program that identifies startups with distinctive innovative technologies in new industries such as eco-friendly solutions, system semiconductors, and biotech and health, then nurtures them to a global level. Ohdu Du-si Lab, selected in the eco-friendly category led by the Korea Energy Technology Evaluation Institute, attended a plaque-awarding ceremony held on the 24th at the Gyeonggi Regional Office of SMEs and Startups and received the official plaque for newly selected companies.
Building on this selection, Ohdu Du-si Lab plans to construct a Korea-style AI carbon data platform and actively support efforts to strengthen small and mid-sized firms’ carbon competitiveness and enter global supply chains. In particular, it will further advance the carbon accounting platform ‘Greenflow,’ which automates 70% of data entry by using public data automatic collection technology, and move to capture global markets.
A detailed technology roadmap to enhance product features will also begin in earnest. Having already secured 2.11 million SME data pipelines and more than 700 customer companies to prove its strength, Ohdu Du-si Lab plans to complete a 2.0 model by the end of the year that raises the data automation rate to 78% and sharply improves the accuracy of Scope 3 calculations to around the 85% level.
In the first half of next year, it will complete standardized emission models by industry segment and size, and unveil a new feature that diagnoses carbon emission levels compared with other companies in the same sector. Furthermore, it plans to strengthen its market dominance by commercializing an ’emission reduction simulation engine’ based on AI prediction models and a ‘regulation-customized diagnostic report auto-generation feature.’
At present, Ohdu Du-si Lab is conducting joint research and demonstrating its expertise with major specialized organizations in the environment and industry sectors, including the Korea Environment Corporation, Ecosian, and the Korea Automobile Research Institute. Based on this, observers expect it will play a pivotal role in enabling domestic small and mid-sized firms to become self-reliant in technologies for carbon-regulation responses and secure global competitiveness.
Oh Kwang Myung, CEO of Ohdu Du-si Lab, said the selection for this project has given momentum to advancing its AI carbon accounting platform and entering the diagnostic assessment services market. He added that amid the trend of strengthened global carbon regulations, he aims to raise the climate management level of domestic small and mid-sized manufacturers worldwide and make the company leap forward as a representative carbon data firm.
