Hancom AI revenue rose to 11.21% of the company’s separate quarterly revenue in Q1 2024, up from 0.04% during the same period in 2023, according to financial reports from Hancom Inc.. The company recorded 46.5 billion won in separate revenue for the first quarter, marking a strategic shift toward artificial intelligence integration across its software suite.
AI Revenue Growth and Financial Shift
Hancom’s transition to an AI-centric business model is reflected in the rapid increase of AI-related contributions to its top line. In Q1 2023, AI revenue was nearly nonexistent at 0.04%. By Q1 2024, that figure climbed to 11.21%, indicating that AI services now generate a significant portion of the company’s separate revenue. This growth aligns with the company’s broader initiative to move beyond traditional office software and into AI-driven productivity tools.
Integration of AI in Hancom Office
The revenue spike follows the rollout of AI features within the Hancom Office ecosystem. According to company announcements, Hancom is implementing “AI Assistants” that automate document creation, summarize lengthy texts, and provide data analysis. These tools are designed to compete with global productivity suites by offering localized AI capabilities tailored for the Korean market and enterprise environments.
Strategic Pivot Toward AI Services
Hancom is diversifying its portfolio to include AI-based cloud services and B2B solutions. The company’s focus has shifted toward “AI-native” applications, which integrate large language models (LLMs) directly into the user interface. This strategy aims to stabilize long-term revenue by moving from one-time license sales to recurring subscription models based on AI utility.

Future Outlook for Hancom AI
Hancom plans to expand its AI capabilities through partnerships and the development of proprietary LLMs. The company’s goal is to integrate AI into public sector administration and corporate workflows, reducing the reliance on traditional software sales. Market analysts monitor these figures as a benchmark for how traditional software providers can successfully pivot to generative AI models.
