The recognition
WiseAitec, a South Korean company specializing in artificial intelligence and data platforms, announced that it had won a software award for its business intelligence (BI) solution based on conversational AI. According to a report by ETNews, the company — led by CEOs Kim Dasan and Lee Jedong — received the President's Award of the Public Sector Buyers Council in the commercial software category of the 12th Global Intelligent SW Awards 2026. The ceremony was held at the Government Sejong Convention Center as part of the Global Intelligent SW Expo (GIX 2026).
The award specifically concerns WiseIntelligence, the company's BI platform. The recognition comes in a category dedicated to commercial software and is presented by a body representing public buyers, a detail that links the product to South Korea's public-sector procurement market.
What the platform does
WiseIntelligence integrates data collection, cleaning, analysis, visualization, and report writing into a single environment. The platform is based on an online analytical processing (OLAP) engine and offers multidimensional analysis and dashboard functions. It also includes extract, transform, load (ETL) data capabilities, which make it possible to collect and process information distributed across different systems and analyze it without using separate tools.
The distinguishing feature is the AI agent called “AI Butler,” which enables conversational analysis. According to the description provided, users ask questions in natural language, and the system explores the relevant data, suggests analysis topics, generates or modifies charts and dashboards, summarizes relevant changes and characteristics in the results, and supports drafting and sharing presentation drafts. The stated goal is to enable analysis without requiring users to master complex tools.
The platform also includes security controls designed for public bodies and financial institutions: user- and group-level access permissions, tracking of data access and system usage, and the ability to operate in an on-premise environment or on a closed network depending on the organization's infrastructure and security policies. For generative AI functions, data access is tied to existing permissions, with query verification and user approval procedures.
Statements and open questions
Kim Dasan, CEO of WiseAitec, said the award recognizes the company's efforts to refine its data analytics and product technologies, and added that the company intends to continue combining BI, AI, and data processing technologies to support data use and the AI transition (AX) at public bodies and businesses. This is a company statement, not independently verifiable data.
The material does not indicate the number of customers, revenue, market size, or the judging panel's evaluation criteria. It is therefore not possible to determine how much the award affects WiseAitec's sales or competitive position. It also remains to be verified how widely the platform is actually adopted by public buyers and how the generative AI controls perform in real-world settings.
