Silgummy · Korea · est. 2024
A small team turning the things people check, trim and follow into products. One live, two on the way.
Korea's real-time search rankings, back.
When Naver retired its live rankings in 2021, Korea lost its shared answer to “what is everyone looking at right now.” Silgummy merges Nate, Google Trends, news-headline volume, community mentions and YouTube into one ranking, every minute.
Under the hood. Signals are merged every minute. An AI editorial desk turns them into headline keywords, a one-line “why” and a category, and every explainer links to its source article.
A small creature that reminds you to take care of yourself.
Haircuts, bangs, nails, nose hair: the routines everyone forgets. In Dadeum a pixel character’s hair and nails actually grow until you tend to them. No guilt, no streaks.
Under the hood. Hair and nails grow on a real clock. Nudges are written from each person’s own rhythm, so a reminder feels like a friend noticing, not an alarm.
Spot rising YouTubers before everyone else.
Players run a virtual talent agency, cast creators who are still small, and score on their real growth. No cash, fixed prices, creators opt in.
Under the hood. Scores track real channel growth. Scouting reports and agency storylines are generated from public channel data.
One product live, two in development. Silgummy is ad-supported today; Dadeum will be a paid app. We build with Claude Code and, after a side-by-side test on Korean headlines, run Claude as Silgummy’s editorial engine in production.
Four things we are shipping next. Dates are ours to keep.
Every page gets a short, sourced explanation of why the topic moved, not just the top ranks. The whole archive is processed in nightly batches.
