Company

Built at KAIST, for the room where it matters.

CorbiT started as an imaging research project at KAIST and is now building MarginX into a product for the operating room.

We're a small team of engineers and researchers who kept running into the same gap: the imaging tools that could answer a surgeon's question in real time simply weren't small enough, fast enough, or built for the sterile field. MarginX is our answer to that gap — literally.

The company motto, “The Answer in the Room,” is also our product spec: if it can't deliver an answer before the patient leaves the table, it isn't finished yet.

Patents applied & pending KAIST-founded team Pre-clinical stage

What we believe

The room is the right place to decide.Every hand-off between the OR and the lab is a delay a patient absorbs.
Portable shouldn't mean lesser.Portability is a constraint we design around, not a compromise on image quality.
Research should ship.MarginX exists to turn KAIST imaging research into something a surgical team can actually use.

Roadmap

From MVP to global scale-up

A five-stage plan linking regulatory clearance in each market to CorbiT's go-to-market.

2026Develop & validateMVP build and proof-of-concept testing.

2027Korea entryTargeting MFDS Class 2 approval; 3–5 tertiary hospitals.

2028U.S. entryTargeting FDA 510(k) clearance.

2029Japan expansionTargeting JMDN Class II; clinical sites at major university hospitals.

2030Europe & globalTargeting CE MDR Class IIb; global scale-up.

Forward-looking roadmap; regulatory clearances have not yet been obtained.
