SK Speedmate Launches ‘Speed AutoCare’ Service Integrated with Kakao AI App
- Provides seamless vehicle management through Kakao’s AI agent ‘Kanana’
- Offers nearby store recommendations, real-time reservations, maintenance guidance, and service history management
- “We will accelerate business innovation by combining cutting-edge technology with offline infrastructure.”
SK Speedmate, a leading automotive maintenance service provider in Korea, is bringing AI-powered convenience into drivers’ daily lives.
On November 26, SK Speedmate (CEO: Ahn Moo-in) announced the launch of ‘Speed AutoCare,’ an AI-based vehicle maintenance service integrated with Kakao’s AI agent app ‘Kanana.’ This service leverages AI to assist customers with vehicle management and maintenance. When Kanana users ask questions about car care through Speed AutoCare, the service provides accurate answers and supports tasks such as recommending nearby Speedmate stores, enabling real-time reservations, and guiding maintenance items for thorough and efficient vehicle management.
The introduction of Speed AutoCare marks the realization of the strategic partnership signed between the two companies in October. SK Speedmate will offer customers an AI-driven experience for vehicle maintenance, while Kakao will provide Kanana users with a complete service that connects online and offline channels.
Kakao’s Kanana app is designed to proactively solve everyday problems using AI capabilities. By integrating Speed AutoCare, SK Speedmate’s safe and convenient vehicle management services will become even more accessible, enhancing customer satisfaction. To celebrate the launch, SK Speedmate will host a promotional event offering engine oil discount coupons to customers who book maintenance through Kanana’s Speed AutoCare feature (details available on the Speedmate website).
An SK Speedmate representative stated, “With Speed AutoCare, Kanana users who need vehicle maintenance will enjoy easy access to high-quality services at over 580 Speedmate locations nationwide. We will continue to accelerate business innovation by combining advanced technology with our extensive offline infrastructure.”
