Seoul-based Datumo, co-founded by David Kim and five KAIST alumni, has secured $15.5 million in funding from investors including Salesforce Ventures, KB Investment, ACVC Partners, and SBI Investment, bringing its total raised to approximately $28 million. Originally launched in 2018 as a data labeling platform, the company has evolved into a leader in AI trust and safety, offering tools for testing, monitoring, and improving AI models without technical expertise.

Datumo’s flagship product, Datumo Eval, enables no-code automated evaluation of AI systems for bias, safety, and accuracy. With over 300 clients including Samsung, LG, Hyundai, Naver, and SK Telecom, the company will use the funding to expand global operations and accelerate R&D in AI evaluation technologies across South Korea, Japan, and the U.S.
