– Selected alongside world leaders such as NVIDIA, Qualcomm, Samsung, Intel, Apple, AMD and more
– 1 of only 3 Korean companies out of 1,150+ innovators to strengthen global edge AI presence
Seoul, South Korea, November 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Nota AI, a company specializing in AI model compression and optimization technology, today announced that it has been recognized in the Edge AI category in the 2025 MAD (Machine Learning, AI, Data) Landscape for the second year in a row.
This recognition follows Nota AI’s selection to the CB Insights 2025 AI 100 earlier this year, placing the company among a select group to be recognized by both of this year’s most influential AI industry benchmarks.
MAD Landscape is a widely referenced resource for global VCs and technology leaders seeking to understand structural changes across the AI and data ecosystem. The 2025 edition highlights a key trend: AI workloads are rapidly moving from cloud-centric infrastructure to device-centric and hardware-centric computing. As this change accelerates, edge AI is emerging as a key indicator of global technological competitiveness.
Of the more than 1,150 companies featured in this year’s Landscape, only three are based in South Korea, including Samsung. Nota AI’s selection alongside world leaders such as NVIDIA, Qualcomm, Apple, Intel, and AMD highlights Nota AI’s growing influence in the on-device AI space.
At the heart of Nota AI’s technology leadership is NetsPresso®, the company’s proprietary AI model optimization platform. NetsPresso® enables efficient compression, optimization, and deployment of AI models across a wide range of hardware, from advanced AI accelerators to low-power IoT devices. Reduce model size by up to 90% while maintaining accuracy, significantly reducing development and operational costs, and accelerating AI adoption across industries.
Nota AI continues to expand its presence in the global edge intelligence market through collaborations with semiconductor leaders such as Samsung Electronics, Qualcomm, Renesas, and Sony. The company recently expanded its on-device AI deployment to manufacturing, consumer electronics, mobility, robotics, and IoT by introducing optimization techniques that enable large-scale language models (LLMs) to run on low-spec devices. It is also a key participant in South Korea’s national initiative to develop a sovereign AI infrastructure model, reflecting widespread recognition of South Korea’s technological leadership.
“Being recognized in both the CB Insights AI 100 and MAD Landscape’s Edge AI category confirms the global competitiveness of our technology,” said Myungsu Chae, CEO of Nota AI. “We continue to advance our AI compression and optimization technology, expand the adoption of on-device AI across key industries, and drive scalable global growth.”
