Brickmate's Launch of Generative AI-Based 'LinguaSync-AI' Imminent... "Entering AI Business"

Brickmate, an IT subsidiary of Kumho Electric (CEO Jongsoo Oh, Minwook Kim), announced on the 20th that it is developing an AI plugin called ‘LinguaSync-AI’ based on generative artificial intelligence (AI) to innovate the collaboration system of software development practitioners worldwide, with plans to launch it in the global market within this year.

‘LinguaSync-AI’ is a third-party translation plugin that operates within Figma. Figma is one of the most widely used collaboration tools globally for managing IT service projects involving design, development, and product management.

This AI plugin features contextual understanding by artificial intelligence (AI) to comprehend and instantly translate planning documents, service screens, and other materials written in languages such as English, Japanese, Vietnamese, Korean, and Chinese, as if it were a project participant. Additionally, it is designed to allow users to directly drag and select text areas within Figma for one-click translation without the cumbersome process of copying and pasting text into separate browsers or applications.

A Brickmate representative stated, “‘LinguaSync-AI’ incorporates the experience and insights accumulated through our employees’ direct operation of the Global Development Center (GDC) business and daily communication with global developers. After internal testing, we expect it to be used not only domestically but also worldwide in stages.”

Meanwhile, Brickmate recently signed a business partnership MOU with Naver Cloud and is promoting business expansion encompassing cloud and AI. Starting in the second half of this year, it plans to further develop high-quality AI services and solutions like LinguaSync-AI using CLOVA Studio based on Naver Cloud’s HyperCLOVA X.
