What Trendier AI does

Trendier AI is a Seoul-headquartered (Dover, Delaware incorporated) AI-powered market intelligence platform purpose-built for the global beauty industry. The company aggregates and analyzes data from 30+ global e-commerce marketplaces, covering approximately 30.2 million products and 508.6 million consumer reviews across 15 countries and 32 channels, and exposes that data through three core products: Trendier Chat (a GPT-powered conversational analytics interface with a four-step verified-answer protocol), Trendier Library (a monthly subscription library of 100+ trend reports), and Trendier Dashboard (a real-time market analysis workspace). A fourth offering, the Trendier AI Bootcamp, is a hands-on training program applying GPT tools to beauty R&D, product planning, marketing, and retail workflows.

The company serves the full beauty value chain — ingredient suppliers, OEM/ODM manufacturers, brands, and retailers — with a hybrid go-to-market that combines consultative enterprise sales (with quote-based pricing, dedicated onboarding, and AI Bootcamp enablement) and product-led self-serve access via the web. Named customers and partners include Cosmax (6+ year relationship), COSRX, TIRTIR, Amorepacific, LG Household & Health Care, Korea Kolmar, Amazon, Watsons, Boots, Chalhoub Group, Coupang, and Olive Young, with a stated base of 3,000+ teams across 20 global markets. Distribution is amplified by an unusually heavy event footprint for a 16-person team, including selection as one of 48 NRF 2026 Innovators, official AI innovation partner status at Amazon Beauty Seoul 2025, and featured speaking roles at Cosmoprof Asia and in-cosmetics Asia in 2025.

Revenue mechanics are SaaS subscription-based (recurring, annual billing cadence for enterprise), with pricing not publicly disclosed. The company is privately held, founded in 2019, with co-CEOs Kei Chun and Jungwook Son and regional Heads of Data Business covering Korea/Japan and Southeast Asia. No funding rounds, M&A, or institutional investor information are disclosed in the available data.
