Get Your Score
Gravion evaluates 6 structural factors across Korea's digital ecosystem and returns a weighted alignment score.
Know Before You Spend
See exactly where your strategy is misaligned before committing months of marketing capital.
6 structural factors. One alignment score.
Each category reveals a specific type of risk that causes foreign companies to burn capital in the Korean market.
Platform Alignment
Are you on Naver and Kakao, or just Google and Meta?
CRM Infrastructure
Email open rates in Korea are 3–6%. Kakao messaging reaches 88–95%.
Localization Readiness
Korean consumers expect information-dense, localized experiences. Western minimal design patterns consistently underperform.
Budget Signal Strength
Below $40K/month, your signal may be too weak to generate actionable data.
Content Ecosystem
Naver Blog and Korean influencers build trust in ways Google SEO cannot replicate.
Creative Refresh Cadence
Korean brands refresh creative every 2–4 weeks. Most Western brands run quarterly.
What companies found out
Companies that ran the Gravion diagnostic before committing to Korea.
“Gravion gave us a platform alignment score of 38. We were planning to allocate 70% of our Korea budget to Google. The diagnostic made it very clear that was the wrong call before we committed anything.”
James P.
Head of Growth, Series A SaaS
“We scored a 44 on localization readiness. Our landing pages were built for Western audiences, minimal design, no Korean social proof. The Blueprint report told us exactly what to fix before launch.”
Sarah K.
Marketing Director, DTC Brand
“Our CRM was entirely email-based. Gravion flagged it as the primary structural risk. We had not considered Kakao at all. That finding alone justified the three minutes it took to complete the diagnostic.”
