The company attributed this performance growth to an increase in revenue from harmful content blocking and improved earnings from its subsidiary, Albatross Investment.


Last year, Plantynet established an in-house "AI Tech Lab" and developed its own sLLM (small Large Language Model) to respond to the diversifying internet environment. By advancing AI-powered harmful content blocking technology and strengthening its ability to respond to a wide range of harmful materials, the company achieved increased sales.


Plantynet is also in the process of filing domestic and international patents for technology that can identify the next-generation internet communication protocol, QUIC (Quick UDP Internet Connections). The company plans to combine this technology under application with its proprietary AI deep learning technology to expand into the Asia-Pacific security market in the future.


Meanwhile, its subsidiary PlantyM aims to further expand its performance by strengthening marketing for its digital magazine service, "Moazine." In fact, starting with KT’s budget phone operator Minigate on July 28, new plans including "Moazine" have been launched by M Mobile and Skylife.


In particular, to commemorate the launch of the M Mobile plan, a special promotion will be held through the end of the year, offering access to over 1,100 international magazines at no extra charge. Customers who subscribe to the plan by December 2025 will have unlimited access to more than 1,400 domestic and international magazines for as long as they maintain their subscription.


Additionally, the company has introduced the "NEW Galaxy AI Subscription Club," which includes benefits for using "Moazine." Users who subscribe to Galaxy insurance products can also access Moazine. PlantyM is collaborating with SKT and LG U+ in addition to KT to launch various subscription services, which is expected to further accelerate revenue growth moving forward.



A Plantynet representative stated, "Our first-half results reflect not only the performance of our core solutions but also visible achievements from new growth drivers," adding, "In the second half of the year, we aim to achieve even greater growth by advancing our AI-based services and expanding the Moazine market."
