Our Identity

About Us

Kernel-level optimization, built for production.

Our Mission

To unlock peak inference performance by delivering production-grade kernel engineering and a hardware-agnostic acceleration stack (Nova Engine).

Our Vision

A world where inference efficiency is a competitive advantage—measurable, deployable, and independent of any single silicon vendor.

Our Story

Born from SNU Deep Learning Lab (DLLab), LLM Core AI focuses on software that unlocks peak hardware potential. We restore performance lost to general-purpose Python frameworks by optimizing at the primitive kernel level with C++ and CUTLASS. We build technical moats with Nova Engine and prove real-world value via Agentic Commerce—our 'Dual-Engine' strategy.
