Secures Commercial Purchase Orders from Over 10 Countries and Regions

Domestic AI semiconductor company DeepX announced that it has secured $13 million in commercial purchase orders (PO) from the global market in its first year of mass production. The company explained that as AI semiconductor commercialization ramps up, the proportion of overseas sales is also expanding.

On the 14th, DeepX announced that over one year following mass production of its on-device AI semiconductor 'DX-M1', it has secured a total of 77 commercial purchase orders from over 10 countries and regions including Korea, the United States, China, Europe, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, and India.

The company announced that as of the end of July this year, cumulative orders exceeded $13 million, with more than half of total sales occurring overseas.

According to DeepX, cumulative purchase orders, which started at 2 orders in the early stages of DX-M1 mass production, increased to 6 orders in Q4 2025, 29 orders by the end of March 2026, 56 orders by the end of May, and 77 orders by the end of July.

In particular, 48 orders, representing 62% of total orders, were generated between April and July of this year. The company explained that projects that had remained in the technology validation and proof-of-concept (PoC) stages are now transitioning to actual product development and production phases.

Supplied products include DX-M1 and DX-M1M series products, along with some DX-H1 products, and are provided in chip and module forms according to customer requirements.

DX-M1 is an on-device AI neural processing unit (NPU) produced based on Samsung Electronics' 5-nanometer process and is designed to perform AI computations on the device itself without cloud connectivity.

The company announced that DeepX's AI semiconductors are being applied across 8 industrial sectors including robotics, smart factories, manufacturing automation, smart mobility, AIoT, medical, edge computing, and video security.

Specifically, they are being utilized in drones, machine vision cameras, AI boxes, industrial equipment, medical AI devices, optical character recognition (OCR) servers, and video management systems (VMS).

The company conducted preliminary evaluations on over 400 companies prior to mass production and has established a cooperation system with 27 global semiconductor distribution partners.

DeepX is also developing next-generation AI semiconductor 'DX-M2'.

According to the company, DX-M2 is being developed based on Samsung Electronics' 2-nanometer process, with a target of securing prototypes in 2027. The goal is to support generative AI operation while reducing power consumption.

DeepX CEO Kim Nok-won stated, "We are noting that actual orders and repeat orders are occurring across multiple countries and industrial sectors," and added, "Based on mass production experience and our global customer base, we will pursue expansion in overseas markets."
