SK Telecom Selects Starseed’s Pulitzer AI for Its 3rd AI Accelerator Batch

Starseed Co, the developer and operator of the global PR automation platform Pulitzer AI, announced on the 28th that it has been officially selected to join SK Telecom’s AI Startup Accelerator 3rd Batch. Through this prestigious program, Starseed aims to expand technological collaboration and business integration opportunities with SK Telecom and its affiliates.

The selection came after a highly competitive process, with 152 domestic AI startups applying and only 15 teams being chosen — an acceptance rate of approximately 10:1. Alongside Starseed, other selected companies include CodeCrain, Teramime, Flex, and other AI-driven digital transformation innovators.

Starseed’s flagship service, Pulitzer AI, is a SaaS-based platform that automates the entire public relations workflow — from press release creation and distribution to journalist matching and global news monitoring. The platform has recently enhanced its technological edge through LLM-based article generation patents, a personalized recommendation engine, and an adaptive AI agent. Since launch, more than 10,000 press releases have been generated on the platform, and over 2,000 users have signed up — demonstrating both significant market potential and operational stability.

As part of the collaboration with SK Telecom, Starseed will gain access to:

• Specialized AI mentoring and seminars
  
• Strategic business partnership discussions with SKT affiliates
  
• Domestic and international VC networks to support follow-on investments and marketing opportunities
  

Looking ahead, Starseed plans to concentrate on advancing its natural language command recognition, enhancing multilingual services, and refining enterprise-customized offerings based on continuous user feedback and data analysis. These efforts are aimed at elevating its AI-powered PR services to global standards.

Katie Bomi Son, CEO of Starseed, stated, “By leveraging the premium network we will build with SKT, we aim to actively expand the proven success of Pulitzer AI onto the global stage. By establishing localized operational systems and strategic partnerships, we will lead the innovative ecosystem of the global PR industry.”

Starseed’s innovation and growth potential have already been recognized in recent months. The company received an award at the 26th Women’s Entrepreneurship Competition, hosted by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and the Women Enterprise Supporting Center (WESC). Out of 1,131 teams nationwide, Starseed was named among the top 26 teams, earning a place in the finals of the K-Startup Challenge 2025, co-hosted by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Science and ICT, and Ministry of National Defense.

Additionally, in March, Starseed was featured in the ‘2025 Generative AI Startup Map’ published by Startup Alliance, further underscoring its prominence in the AI startup ecosystem.

StarSeed Co., Ltd. is the developer and operator of Pulitzer AI, a PR SaaS platform powered by generative AI technology with a mission to serve global markets. Pulitzer AI allows users to deliver key messages with just a few keywords, automating the entire PR workflow — from drafting and distributing press releases to media targeting, copywriting, and performance analysis. In 2024, Starseed secured pre-seed funding, and in 2025, was selected for inclusion in the ‘Generative AI Startup Map 2025’ by Startup Alliance. The company recently launched a customized news clipping service that collects and summarizes the latest news articles, enhancing the scalability and efficiency of PR operations.
