2022 · Start
We started in Suwon
Engineers who worked hands-on with production sites at equipment makers' R&D labs founded Hypernology. We are a team that knows where the problem is when a line stops.







Hypernology · The journey of technology that runs in the field
From inspection to safety, robotics and data. We build industrial AI that sees, connects and acts on the shop floor.
Scroll to tour the shop floor, zone by zone
Beyond academia and technology,
beyond every ‘-ology’,
to technology that runs in the field
Our philosophy
The name Hypernology means going beyond (Hyper-) both academia (-ology) and technology.
Connecting advanced AI to everyday work in the field. That is why we build software that runs on the production line, not research papers.
What Hypernology holds to
We hold to five of them. Scroll and they come closer, one at a time.
We solve site conditions in software, not with new equipment.

Our team was founded by engineers from equipment makers' R&D labs. When a line stops, we know where the problem is.

From the inspection engine to the data platform and model operations, we develop it all in-house.

We think on-premises first. Your data does not have to leave the site.

AI finds anomalies and makes proposals; people give the approval.

Act · The road ahead
It finds anomalies and proposes actions, and only what the person in charge approves is applied on site. This is where Hypernology is heading next.


Expand
We are extending technology refined in factories to defense and public-sector sites. Seeing, connecting and deciding work the same way at any site.


Across the sea
We set up a joint venture in Singapore and are bringing to sites across Southeast Asia.
To the world
We started in Korea and crossed over to Southeast Asia. The next leg of the journey is the wider world.
With the same technology
Seeing, connecting and deciding are the same everywhere. We build the same to run at any site.
So that one day, even from space,
you can see Hypernology.
From products that see to products that operate, one team builds them all and designs them to connect as one. For product specs and adoption inquiries, visit .
We are looking for people who imagine, learn fast and reach out first. We are now hiring for AI vision R&D, and every other Friday is off.

What we do
We build inspection systems that find defects with cameras and AI software, and supply them to factories. The same technology also handles site safety, equipment data and internal documents.

How we sellDirect supply · Built into equipment makers' machines · Local partnersQuotes list software, equipment and development separately.More
Inspection, safety, robotics and equipment data. We started on lines where products change often. We adapt to site conditions with software, without replacing equipment.
Where precision matters, as in maintenance and quality, we support people's eyes and judgment. Because security is required, the system runs inside the organization.
We handle public agencies' documents and data with AI that runs inside the agency. Data does not leave the agency.






Vision inspection is where Hypernology started. We turned the inspections that recur from site to site into standard products.
Instead of stopping the line and replacing equipment, the software adapts to site conditions.
Three connected layers: See · Connect · Operate. Product specifications and adoption packages are on the site.
Equipment makers build software into their own machines, and regional partners supply it as box-type inspection units. We also supply directly.
We don't lump everything into 'inspection system, complete, 1 lot.' Your quote shows at a glance what each cost is for.

Social value · ESG
Hypernology is a social venture recognized by the Korea Technology Finance Corporation. Our social value comes from the business itself, not from separate activities, and we wrote that promise into our articles of incorporation.


Value created through our business
Sites struggle to find inspectors, and someone still has to stare at the same part all day.
AI cameras take over repetitive inspection.
People spend their time on judgment and improvement.
AI inspection used to be only for companies that could afford big equipment investments.
We train with little data and supply together with equipment makers and local partners.
AI reaches small and mid-sized factories too.
People still get hurt in factories and on construction sites.
Existing CCTV cameras flag fires, falls and unusual behavior early.
We help people notice danger sooner.
When defects are found late, materials go to waste, and changing an inspection used to mean buying new equipment.
We catch defects early on the line and keep existing equipment in use with software. Training takes little data and little time.
We help reduce wasted materials and equipment, and the power used for training.
Organizations that need security can't send their data outside.
We build AI that runs inside the organization.
Data never leaves the organization.
When AI changes things on its own, responsibility for decisions gets blurred.
AI proposes, and only what the person in charge approves is applied on site.
People make the decisions.












Governance
The articles of incorporation are the company's constitution: they can only be changed by a resolution of the shareholders' meeting, and these promises come first.
We aim to widen employment insurance and pension coverage, reduce non-regular jobs, and pay women and men the same for the same work.
We measure our social value every year, write it up in a report, and the board approves it.
When we make a profit, part of it goes to better conditions for staff, donations to the local community and investment that creates jobs, or is set aside for them.
Even if the company is wound up, part of what remains goes to other social enterprises or public-interest organizations.
Five aims written in Art. 1-2
We pursue a stronger social safety net, healthy and happy lives, gender equality and good jobs.
We measure our social outcomes every year and have the year-end report approved by the board.
It goes to better working conditions, donations to the local community and investment that creates jobs.
Part of the remaining assets goes to other social enterprises or public-interest organizations.
Sharing
What we've shared beyond the company.

With the Gyeonggi Venture Business Association, we shared practical know-how on issues venture companies face, such as patents, labor and trade secrets.

Careers
People who imagine

We are a team founded by engineers who worked hands-on in the field at an equipment maker's R&D lab. People who make lab technology run on the production line: that is who Hypernology is looking for.

We start by widening what we imagine. Before saying it can't be done, we ask how to make it work.
In the momentFacing a dead end, you sketch another way first.
We pick things up fast and put them to work right away. Even with unfamiliar equipment, we learn hands-on.
In the momentYou open up equipment you've never seen and get the hang of it right away.
We reach out first and find answers together. We treat a customer's site and a colleague's work as our own.
In the momentYou are the first to walk between the customer's line and a colleague's desk.How we work
You set your own start and finish times. Some days, the work takes you outside the office.
The job is to make lab technology run on the line. You learn fast by opening up and handling the equipment.
We cover job training costs and time, and if you're in graduate school, you can adjust your hours around classes. The company buys the books you need for your work.
You're rewarded at filing and at registration, and again when the invention brings the company revenue.
Since February 2026 we have offered an optional four-day week. Every other Friday is a day off that doesn't use annual leave. Tap the Friday box to see.
We go on retreats and outings, and look after birthdays and family occasions together.






We look after working hours, growth, daily life and family. We keep adding the benefits our people ask for.
