Hancom Nomadian: Hiring AI Employees and Directing Work in a 3D Virtual Office

Hancom is unveiling Nomadian, an innovative AI workforce platform that visualizes the workflow of AI employees in a 3D space, built on its proprietary agentic operating system. Targeting the massive market of solo entrepreneurs in the United States who run businesses without employees, the platform is scheduled to have its beta version first released locally in December. Unlike traditional conversational AI that simply delivers final outputs without showing the process, this new approach is entirely different. You can hire AI for specific roles, from data analysts to content marketers, form a team, and directly observe them working. For small business owners and solo entrepreneurs who have been staying up late handling everything alone, this is truly a godsend. Today, let’s take a detailed look at how this new platform will fundamentally change the way we work.

Hancom Nomadian: Hiring AI Employees and Directing Work in a 3D Virtual Office

1. The Secret to Building AI Teams by Hiring for Specific Roles

In the past, starting a business alone meant having to acquire expert knowledge in every field, from design to marketing and financial management, or outsourcing these tasks. However, with Nomadian, a web-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), you can now hire AI for specific roles freely, much like hiring people at a real company. For example, you can group a Data Analyst AI that analyzes market trends and a Marketing AI that writes social media posts into a single team. If none of the pre-made AI employees suit your needs, it is entirely possible for users to create custom agents tailored to their specific tasks and deploy them. These AI team members are organically connected to one another, demonstrating remarkable collaboration by dividing roles and working together. Consider the case of CEO Kim, who runs an online shopping mall alone. He was exhausted from analyzing customer purchase records and writing promotional copy every night. But after hiring AI team members, the Data Analyst AI first identifies the best-selling products from the previous month and immediately passes this information to the Marketing AI. The Marketing AI then uses this data to instantly craft polished ad copy and requests final confirmation from the user. This creates an amazing collaborative system. Because AI employees autonomously divide roles and move organically without needing individual instructions from a human, work efficiency rises vertically.

2. Transparent Work Processes Unfolded in a 3D Virtual Office

Most conversational AI tools we have commonly used in the past would process a command for a long time and then simply present the final result, leaving the process a mystery. Because it was impossible to know how the result was derived, users often felt anxious or unsure where to start making corrections. However, the platform Hancom has released this time introduces the concept of “Rooms,” which are 3D virtual office spaces, vividly displaying every step of the work process right before your eyes. AI employees move around in the virtual space as cute characters, allowing users to visually confirm which tools they are actually using. Through the 3D screen, users can monitor in real-time which document a specific AI employee is currently writing and how far along the task is. Since you can see arrows or movement paths indicating which AI colleague the completed output is being passed to, it feels like sitting in a real office directing subordinates. If a specific employee gets stuck or goes in the wrong direction, you can intervene immediately by watching the screen to correct the course. Thanks to this transparent work process where everything is visible, users can trust and utilize AI-generated results with greater peace of mind.

3. Safe Final Approval Authority Held Directly by Humans

No matter how intelligent and fast AI is, leaving critical decisions entirely to machines still carries significant risk. If an AI mistakenly sends a wrong email to tens of thousands of people or electronically signs an important contract with an incorrect amount, it could lead to an uncontrollable major incident. To fundamentally prevent such fatal errors, the Nomadian platform is equipped with a reliable safety mechanism that keeps humans firmly in control. Critical, irreversible tasks, such as mass email sending or electronic signatures involving financial transactions, are automatically halted at the step just before execution. The system sends a notification to the user while the task is paused, and it only proceeds to the next stage after the user has carefully reviewed the content and given final approval with a mouse click. CEO Park, who runs a small publishing house in San Francisco, had a close call in the past when he accidentally sent a wrong notice to all subscribers while using automation tools. However, he says that since adopting this platform, he has found peace of mind because even if the AI perfectly drafts the content, he personally presses the final send button. This structure, where AI works diligently as hands and feet while human users always hold the decisive key and baton, can be called the ideal collaboration model.

4. Seamless Teamwork Powered by a Proprietary Agentic Operating System

The fundamental reason all these amazing features work smoothly is due to the powerful underlying technology of the agentic operating system independently developed by Hancom. It does not merely gather multiple AI agents in one place; it acts as a command center that organically creates, executes, and strictly controls them. Within this operating system, a high-level general agent breaks down overall tasks and issues appropriate instructions to subordinate agents in a systematic structure. Then, a highly autonomous collaboration system operates where the high-level agent consolidates the results from the subordinate agents who have completed their missions and reports them to the user. Although countless AI programs are being released worldwide, this is the first time agents for creating documents, tables, and presentation materials have been grouped into a single team and implemented in a 3D space. This is akin to creating a virtual company where AI organically operates like a complete corporate organization, going beyond a simple chat window. The dedicated researchers in charge of development found the optimal rules for AI with different personalities and abilities to cooperate harmoniously without conflict, after numerous trials and errors. Thanks to this unique operating system technology, users can easily command a massive AI organization with just a few mouse clicks, without complex settings.

5. Global Strategy Targeting the US Solo Entrepreneur Market

The first target of the innovative platform Hancom is unveiling is the US market for solo entrepreneurs and non-employer businesses, which is the largest in the world. According to the latest statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of non-employer businesses run by individuals without employees exceeds 30 million. The total annual revenue generated by these businesses reaches an astonishing $1.8 trillion, boasting immense economic impact. This massive US market, where individuals must handle everything alone due to the costs and legal burdens of hiring and managing employees, is precisely where AI employees are most needed. Hancom, which is in close contact with various local companies in the US to discuss market entry and commercialization plans, will first release the beta version in the US in December. After successfully establishing itself in the US market, the company has an ambitious plan to gradually expand its business scope to numerous small and medium-sized enterprises in South Korea and the European market. This platform is expected to be a breakthrough like rain in a drought for countless solo business owners who are chased by deadlines and suffer from a lack of manpower every day. The industry is already focusing on what massive seismic shifts this challenge, which will clear the bottleneck of the huge market, will cause in the global startup ecosystem.

6. Outlook for the Era of AI Employees Changing the Way We Work

In the past, it was a reality that only large corporations with huge capital and numerous personnel could form teams dedicated to complex marketing and data analysis. However, an era is dawning where anyone can pay a monthly subscription fee to hire AI employees working in a virtual office and command their own powerful dream team. This platform, which will transition from a beta version in December to a full subscription service in 2027, will permanently change the landscape of our work. The future of growing a business in a 3D space while communicating with reliable AI colleagues, instead of the loneliness and helplessness of working alone, is no longer a story from a movie. We encourage readers to think in advance about which role of colleague they would need first in their business to keep up with the coming era of AI employees. A wise attitude is needed: willingly entrusting simple and repetitive chores to AI employees while humans focus on creative planning and final approval. We sincerely hope that in the new work environment ahead, you will build your own virtual AI team and achieve success one step ahead of others. The wave of change has already begun; all that remains is to ride that wave and enjoy the world as the magnificent conductor of a virtual office.
