Yoonsunsaeng Signs Business Agreement with Conversational AI Company Neosapiens

On May 19, Yoonsunsaeng announced that it has signed a business agreement with Neosapiens, a company specializing in conversational artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, to co-develop an AI tutor-based English learning service.

The core of this agreement is to combine Neosapiens' conversational AI solution, "Neona Agents," with Yoonsunsaeng's native speaker video English service, "Tuit." With this integration, a new AI tutor feature will be introduced, allowing learners to practice sufficiently with the AI before joining video classes with foreign tutors. The strategy aims to provide a more robust learning environment.

The newly introduced "AI Tutor" will be provided in a voice-based conversational format. Before the video class begins, "Tuit" users will engage in preview conversations with the AI tutor for 5 to 10 minutes, based on the lesson material. Notably, the AI tutor incorporates Yoonsunsaeng’s own structured teaching methods, which were analyzed and developed during the pilot period of "Tuit" native speaker classes. For example, if students struggle to answer, the AI offers step-by-step hints and provides feedback centered on praise.

Additionally, Neona's Smart Emotion and streaming technologies will be integrated. As a result, emotions such as praise and encouragement will be reflected in the AI's voice in real time, and more than 700 types of character voices will be utilized to further enhance learner engagement.

Currently, "Tuit" is operating pilot classes for Yoonsunsaeng members, and the official launch with the AI tutor feature is scheduled for July. Moving forward, both companies plan to gradually expand AI-powered learning assistance features, focusing on areas such as repeated preview exercises and basic conversation, where AI can be most effectively utilized.

Yoon Su, co-CEO of Yoonsunsaeng, stated, "We aim to provide Tuit learners with an experience that will help them participate in video classes with foreign tutors with greater confidence."
