ALOOH

What ALOOH does

ALOOH is the commercial brand of Cresprit Inc. (크레스프리), a privately held South Korean technology company founded in 2013 in Seongnam, Gyeonggi-do. The company develops and sells an Industrial IoT (IIoT) platform that combines proprietary Edge Computing Middleware with an Edge Processor hardware device and an IIoT Server software component to perform real-time data collection, analysis and control at industrial sites. The platform's modular architecture supports edge-server hybrid analytics using AI/ML and Big Data technologies, with a drag-and-drop Edge Builder tool for configuration and Edge View for visualization.

ALOOH serves two principal use cases. In Smart Factory deployments it targets manufacturers needing machine health monitoring (robots, presses, conveyors), quality inspection (washing machines, refrigerators) and predictive maintenance for cost reduction. In Smart City deployments it delivers CCTV-based Vision AI services including the Ansim Fence (안심울타리) virtual safety fence for jaywalking prevention and AI-driven Missing Person Search, currently piloted with Bucheon City police. Named reference deployments include the Bucheon City Smart City Challenge (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, ~10,000 CCTV units) and the Busan Eco-Delta Smart City national demonstration project, where Cresprit is a consortium partner alongside Hanwha Energy, Naver Cloud and K-water.

The company generates revenue through sale of Edge Processor hardware and IIoT Server software combined with customized solution development and professional services. Pricing is quote-based, not publicly disclosed, and contracts with government and enterprise customers are typically multi-year. Go-to-market is direct enterprise and government sales, supported by participation in smart-city trade shows (SCEWC Barcelona 2022, World Smart City Expo 2021-2022) and by leadership of the Smart Factory division within the Korean Cloud Business Association (80+ member companies). The company remains small (1-10 employees), funded by a non-dilutive TIPS government grant, and operates exclusively under the Cresprit corporate entity.
