No Consumer App Knows What One Free User Burned This Month
Consumer apps see a monthly total and never a per-user figure, so when inference cost climbs the only available move is to lower the limit for every free user at once.

Why Is There No Spot Market for Inference, When So Much GPU Capacity Sits Idle
LLM inference is priced per token, but every provider sets its own fixed rate, and there is no market to connect people with spare GPUs to people who want to buy inference cheaply.

Will Quality Survive the Switch to a Cheaper Chip?: An Accelerator Migration Verification Layer
AI teams where inference is 30-60% of product cost want off Nvidia onto cheaper silicon, but switching chips means the kernels are reimplemented wholesale, differences in accumulation precision, rounding order, and quantization quietly nudge the output off course. MLPerf is irrelevant to your traffic and homegrown eval sets are eyeballed on a few hundred samples, so there's no way to prove 'this chip gives the same quality,' and the migration stalls.

You Vibe-Coded an App: Can You Just Ship It? The Verification Gap Between Prompt and Production
Vibe coding tools take responsibility only as far as generating the code. Whether that code embeds a hardcoded API key, opens a SQL injection, or imports a package that doesn't exist, a non-developer has no way to know. The verification gate on the path from prompt to production is empty.

Real-time Tracking and Automatic Optimization System to Solve Surging Computation Costs for Development Teams
Development teams and mid-sized developers face severe difficulties from unexpected cost explosions when using external high-performance computation services. Recent usage-based price increases by major providers have caused many startups to rapidly burn through their runway, while existing tools are optimized for US-centric workloads and fail to properly account for Korean government clouds or Korean language characteristics. This is eating away at product development funds and weakening competitiveness.

Integrated Usage Tracking Tool to Solve Exploding Costs from Multiple External Services
Companies contract multiple external services for efficiency but cannot see total usage or spending in one place. Monthly bills arrive far higher than expected, with no clear view of which tasks use which service, causing massive waste. Finance and engineering teams remain disconnected, and recent pricing changes from major providers have caused sudden 2-3x bill increases.
