Generative AI (artificial intelligence) startup Countdown AI announced on the 26th that it has been finally selected for TIPS, a private investment-led technology start-up support program of the Ministry of SMEs and Startups.
The tips were made at the recommendation of accelerator New Paradigm Investment, which seeded in Countdown AI in November last year. With this selection, Countdown AI will receive up to 700 million won over the next two years, including 500 million won in research and development funds and 200 million won in overseas marketing and start-up commercialization support.
Countdown AI has accumulated 1.3 million global users through AI photo and video generation app ‘MeeAww’, proving the possibility and marketability of Generative AI technology.
Miu can create different styles of person images with a single selfie. In addition, it is receiving good responses from global creators and general users based on its technology and ease of use to maintain character consistency, such as animation AI filters.
Countdown AI is speeding up its development of its own model with the final goal of implementing an “all-in-one AI generator” that encompasses text, images, and even videos. It aims to build the core infrastructure of the next generation AI-based creative ecosystem through differentiated performance, security, and customized functions from existing public models.
Kim Sang-hee, CEO of Countdown AI, said, “We plan to maximize the sense of immersion in storytelling and brand content by upgrading the technology that maintains the appearance, style, and personality of AI-generated characters consistently in various scenes and poses. All of these functions will be provided to the outside world through the ‘MeeAw’ API service so that various companies and creators can easily utilize high-performance multimodal Generative AI technology.”
Countdown AI, which was finally selected as the “2025 Google Window Program” by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, plans to launch more specific and viable collaborations in earnest, such as entering overseas markets and strengthening local networking, signing strategic partnerships with AI content partners in each country, and expanding global AI businesses in connection with the “Google Global AI First Accelerator Program.”
