Nota AI and DEEPX have signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) aimed at strengthening their global position in the rapidly growing on-device AI market. The signing was held at COMPUTEX 2025, the world’s largest ICT exhibition, which is being held this week in Taipei, Taiwan.

Under the agreement, the two companies will co-develop AI solutions that combine DEEPX’s advanced Neural Processing Units (NPUs) with Nota AI’s lightweight AI models, enabling high-performance AI functionality even in ultra-compact, power-constrained devices. These joint solutions will serve as proof-of-concept models for applications in industrial robotics, smart appliances, security systems, mobility platforms, and more—accelerating market penetration both in Korea and globally.

As part of the collaboration, DEEPX will provide its NPU SDKs and development kits to support optimized integration of lightweight AI models. Nota AI will design and fine-tune application-specific models to meet diverse industry requirements. The partnership also includes co-marketing efforts, joint participation in global trade shows, and active engagement with B2B customers worldwide through proof-of-concept deployments.

“Our strategic partnership with DEEPX combines Nota AI’s proprietary AI optimization technologies with DEEPX’s world-class AI hardware innovation, positioning us as leaders in the global on-device AI market,” said Nota AI CEO Myungsu Chae. “Together, we will accelerate the deployment of optimized AI across a range of industrial applications.”

“This agreement will be an important collaboration to expand the on-device AI ecosystem,” said Lokwon Kim, CEO of DEEPX. “By combining the strengths of both on-device AI hardware and software, we will strive to bring competitive AI solutions to the global market.”

This MOU highlights the growing global recognition of Korean innovation in on-device AI technology, signaling a new phase of international expansion for domestically developed AI solutions.
