East Aid's blogging service 'Igloos' has expanded its offerings by implementing an artificial intelligence (AI) search optimization strategy.
On July 21, East Aid announced that the AI-driven platform has seen an approximately 18-fold increase in visits from AI search and citation bots, reaching 250,000 visits from 14,000 in late April, just 100 days after its pre-launch. The number of partner channels has also grown to 20.
In April, Igloos was completely revamped as an AI-based 'Media to Text (M2T)' content platform. Its core service automatically converts video content from platforms like YouTube into text optimized for AI search and citation.
According to the company, the number of AI search and citation crawlers visiting Igloos content surged from 14,000 monthly at the end of April to about 250,000 earlier this month, with a content completion rate of 51%.
The number of partners is also rapidly increasing. Following the addition of channels such as Understanding, Demo Day, Kim Deok-jin's AI Dia, and Chungko's Philosophy, recent additions include the investment channel 'Tomorrow's Investment King Kim Dante,' EBS, Gizmo, and Muracle, bringing the total to 20.
East Aid explained that it has enhanced content quality by applying professional editor reviews during the AI automatic conversion process and linking Igloos content with its AI portal 'Zum's AI 1-Second Summary' data.
With plans to strengthen AI search optimization and content distribution features, East Aid aims to officially launch Igloos in September. The official service will introduce paid features for business-to-business (B2B) customers to generate revenue.
Kim Nam-hyun, CEO of East Aid, stated, "Igloos is proving both content quality and the effectiveness of AI search expansion. With the official launch in September, we will actively expand the ecosystem connecting AI search and content."
