Source data acquisition and processing technology
Value investment analysis through algorithms
After quantifying ESG value numerically
Anyone can easily find a superior company
Antock, a startup that provides enterprise analysis solutions, is solving the problem of information asymmetry by quantifying scattered data from each company based on big data and robo-advisor technology.
The purpose is to make it easy for anyone to find superior companies and avoid poor companies based on △ source data acquisition and processing technology, △ value investment analysis through algorithms, and △ visualization capabilities focused on infographics.
◇As a Hubble database, 800,000 companies 'Tweezer Analysis' = Antock's core technology is a self-developed 'hub database' platform. The Hubble database was named for the purpose of discovering good companies based on data, just as the “Hubble Astronomical Telescope” discovers stars in an unknown region.
Antock automatically identifies 800,000 domestic corporate companies through this platform. Through this, information necessary for investment or risk analysis of companies is divided into 11 major areas, and up to 300 types of data are collected and evaluated, and provided to financial institutions and public institutions.

◇Quantifying ESG value... Securing reliability through a partnership between KB and us = Antock is developing an “impact investment platform” to discover ESG companies using Hubble database technology. Impact investing is a method of investing in companies that aim to generate financial profits while seeking solutions to social issues such as job creation and environmental improvement, and the government is also proposing a revitalization policy.
Since the ESG value of a company is not easy to quantify numerically, Antock focuses on objectivity. They are broadly classified in three ways: institutionally certified companies, social ventures selected by the Ministry of Small and Medium Business Ventures, and hypothetical potential companies based on each company's business. Currently, there are about 50,000 identifiable social enterprises secured by Antock.
(short note)
Since its establishment in 2015, Antock is now in its 7th year. In the meantime, I participated in startup support programs run by public institutions and private companies and focused on technology development and data acquisition, and recently completed technology verification (PoC) work with KB Financial Holding and Woori Financial Holding, and signed a solution introduction agreement, and was recognized for its reliability.
In addition, it supports enterprise data management with the Korea Intelligent Information Society Development Agency, Korea Internet & Security Agency, and Gyeongsangbuk-do Economic Development Agency, and is expanding its scope in the ESG field by signing a data supply agreement with Korea Social Investment, a non-profit foundation to support impact investments.
An Antock official stated, “We will improve the efficiency of finding superior companies by automatically identifying ESG implementing companies using a scientific method and providing quantified social value,” and “we will contribute to further accelerating domestic impact investment and the growth of the ESG industry, which is still in its infancy.”
