Hancom CEO Kim Yeonsu Takes Aim at U.S. Market With Nomadian

CEO Kim Yeonsu: "A Leap to Becoming a Global AI Company"
Beta Service to Launch in the U.S. in December
Targeting 250,000 Paying Customers by 2028
"Could Reach 500,000 Depending on the Promotion Period"

"Nomadian's target is to reach 250,000 paying customers by 2028. That's a conservative figure. With promotions, we could acquire as many as 500,000 customers."

Kim Yeon-su, CEO of Hancom, made the remarks while introducing its AI agent, Nomadian, at a press conference held at Hancom Tower in Pangyo on Oct. 29. The company aims to gain an early lead in the global market by leveraging Nomadian, which specializes in dividing up roles to carry out work in the fiercely competitive AI agent market.

Kim is leading Hancom's transformation from an office software developer into an AI company. Early this year, the company officially announced its shift to becoming a "global AI orchestration company" and began using AI agents on an ongoing basis across all roles. It subsequently established its identity as a sovereign agentic OS company and unveiled Nomadian last September. Ahead of the formal announcement of Nomadian's U.S. launch in November, Kim personally demonstrated the platform to investors in New York this month.

Nomadian aims to be the world's first AI workforce platform. Twelve AI agents form teams by job function, including sales, marketing, customer support, contracts and recruitment, and divide up work within companies. They then carry tasks through to completion using an agentic operating system (OS) and office software. In September, Hancom filed four domestic patent applications for core Nomadian technologies, including integrated agent status management and visualization of deliverable handoffs. It also filed two international patent applications under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) for technology that allows agents to select and use the APIs they need.

Hancom chose the United States as a foothold for Nomadian's global expansion because the country has many solo entrepreneurs. Its initial target market is 5.21 million solo operators and small businesses that already use AI or pay for AI services. Hancom is entering the U.S. market in collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS). The company plans to launch a beta version of Nomadian in the United States by the end of this year and release a global commercial version in March 2027.
