According to AI TIMES, Saltlux said on August 31 that it will participate as a key partner in the KT consortium's "Everyone's AI" project, taking charge of building and operating an MCP-based agent platform and public-sector-focused AI agents. The company said it aims to connect public services to a conversational execution support system, drawing on its experience operating existing services and about 120 types of MCP. In this project, the general-purpose and public-sector domains will be pursued separately, and Saltlux said it will focus on helping citizens find the administrative services they need through natural language conversations and continue through application preparation. A defining feature is its execution-oriented structure, which goes beyond simple guidance to connect eligibility checks, document preparation, and application channels in one flow. It also designed the system so users can connect to services tailored to their personal circumstances even if they do not already know which agency to contact, while maintaining conversation context as they move to related specialized agents. The company also said the initiative will serve as a starting point for expanding into an open agent ecosystem used by both the public and private sectors, broadening the foundation for AI service adoption in South Korea.
Perspective
The significance of this announcement is that public AI is moving from simple consultation to taking the lead in the front end of actual task processing. If services shift from a model in which users first have to understand agencies and procedures to one in which the service understands the user's context and makes the connection, the way public services are accessed could change fundamentally. At the same time, because the project puts open agents and tool integration front and center, it may become a proving ground not just for one company's service buildout but for how South Korea's AI ecosystem competes around standards and interoperability.
