South Korean AI startup Searchdoc has secured approximately $2.1 million in early-stage funding, combining a seed round with support from the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund’s Innovative Startup Growth Support Program.
Founded in March 2025 by engineers from AWS, Naver, and Samsung, the company has developed AI capable of analyzing large-scale industrial documents and technical drawings that standard large language models typically cannot process. Its platform serves the construction and engineering sectors, offering precise document search and agent-based workflow automation.
CEO Junsun Baek said the raise validates both the company’s technology and its commercial viability. Searchdoc has already signed contracts with major domestic clients and plans to use the capital for AI research, product development, and international expansion.
