Nota AI, an AI optimization startup based in South Korea, showcased their platform, LaunchX, at the Arm Booth during Compute 2024. LaunchX aims to enhance the efficiency of AI models while maintaining accuracy. The platform enables deployment of various models on Armbased devices through partnerships, offering a Convert Module to facilitate conversion to intermediate representation formats like TensorRT or TFLite. This conversion enables easy deployment on desired hardware, with the added ability to benchmark the model's performance. Nota AI demonstrated an example of vehicle detection, showcasing their benchmarks on Arm devices such as Luna, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi, and converting a model for deployment on an NXP board.

The company emphasizes realboard testing over simulation, showcasing their commitment to practical performance validation. They highlight their main difference as testing on real boards rather than relying solely on simulated environments. This approach provides accurate insights into model latency, demonstrated with an example showing an INF latency of 2.3 milliseconds. Despite primarily focusing on the Korean market, Nota AI expresses aspirations to expand globally, leveraging partnerships with companies like Net Espresso.

Nota AI's platform includes modules like Convert, Bench, and Compress, with LaunchX Plus being the premium version. They monetize their platform through tokenbased payments, primarily targeting businesstobusiness (B2B) users by offering platform access onpremise or through server deployment. Additionally, they offer a credit system for individual users like university students or lab professors. This dual monetization strategy ensures revenue generation through both direct sales and partnerships with platforms.

The company's strategy involves offering their platform to partners, who then integrate it into their systems. This approach allows Nota AI to collect license fees from partners while also offering tokenbased access to individual users. By providing a comprehensive solution for AI optimization and deployment, Nota AI aims to cater to a wide range of users, from large enterprises to individual researchers and developers. Their focus on realworld performance validation and partnerships with global players positions them for expansion beyond the Korean market.
