AUTOMATE & AUGMENT

HUMAN × WORK × AI

Grow without adding staff.
An AI organization that works
around the clock for you.

Replying to inquiries, reaching out to prospects, reading documents, taking bookings. AI keeps routine work moving, even at night, while people decide on prices and contracts. We design and build that system, starting with one workflow in your business.

How AI and people share the work, in 81 seconds

Let AI do the work. You explore what's possible. To live well.

SEE IT WORK

Before we explain, see the AI at work.

Inquiries, sales outreach, documents, bookings and subsidy applications. Videos and an interactive demo show how far AI takes each job and where it hands over to a person. All of these services are in the concept stage, with fictional data on screen.

We show these concept-stage services first as videos and an interactive demo. The demo neither sends anything externally nor calls an AI model.

WHAT TO DELEGATE

Break your work into tasks, and hand what you can to AI agents. One company, from design to development.

Not sure what to delegate? Start with work you repeat every day. AI moves routine tasks forward, while decisions such as prices and contracts stay with people.

  • First replies to inquiries

    AIReplies first to email, LINE and web-form inquiries and logs them

    PeopleReplies on prices, contracts and complaints

  • Outreach to prospects

    AIResearches each company, writes a message, sends it and schedules meetings

    PeopleWho to contact, volume limits, meetings and contracts

  • Invoice and form entry

    AIReads incoming documents, checks the totals and puts them into a table

    PeopleFlagged items and documents above your limit

  • Recruiting communication

    AIHandles messages with applicants and schedules interviews

    PeopleInterviews and hiring decisions

  • Meeting notes and reports

    AITurns meeting notes into minutes, next actions and an end-of-day report

  • Internal documents and procedures

    AIOrganizes scattered documents and procedures so they are easy to find

    PeopleWhat AI may use, and checking the summary

WORKFLOWHow one job moves forward
  1. 01Work arrives

    Inquiries, documents, requests

  2. 02AI researches and drafts

    Uses your documents to prepare a draft

  3. 03People check and decide

    Content, exceptions, whether to send

  4. 04AI sends and records

    Sends as decided and updates the log

Outcomes and review points are recorded for the next run. Anything AI cannot decide returns to a person.

PRODUCTS

Available now, and you can try them first.

These products are available now. Depending on the product, you can try an interactive demo or review a recorded AI run with fictional input.

EXPERIENCE

What we do now, what we have done.

Work we are doing today with current AI, and the scope of past consultation and development engagements, shown separately as in progress and past work.

AI WORKSPACE / AGENT OPSIn progress

A&A in-house operations

AI does the work, people decide. How we run it ourselves.

We combine AI development tools with assistants we can instruct from chat to form the workflows we run in our own work. We keep documents and the reasoning behind decisions, divide the work, and include human review.

Scope: In-house design, implementation, operation, and improvement

AI AGENT / SALES AUTOMATIONIn progress

A&A in-house / in development

Telephone outreach, connected to voice AI and a CRM.

We are building telephone outreach automation in-house: voice AI placing the calls, integration with a CRM, and stage-by-stage tracking from call to conversation, appointment, and business meeting. We build it together with a team of AI agents.

Scope: In-house design and development

AI TOOL / WORKFLOWPast work

Real estate / anonymized

Connect document review, research, and reporting.

We developed a workflow tool in which AI prepares sourced background research and a draft report from property documents and public data. We designed a step where people first confirm what was read from the documents, screens for review and approval, and a revision-request flow, and we handled improvements based on feedback from the client's staff, functional testing, and handover documentation.

Scope: Contracted design, implementation, improvement, testing, and handover

INDUSTRY FRONTIER

How far AI organizations have come elsewhere.

Based on figures and primary sources published by companies outside Japan. These are not A&A results.

Every

  • Every runs six products, a media company and a consultancy with about 25 people
  • Four AI agents handle priorities, meeting tasks, goal setting and growth reporting
  • Its AI coworkers each have a name and a manager, shown in a public org chart

Stripe

  • Stripe runs unattended coding agents called Minions
  • Over a thousand pull requests merged each week are entirely Minion-produced
  • A run starts in a Slack message; humans review instead of writing code

Vercel

  • Vercel runs more than a hundred agents in production
  • Its most-used internal tool is a data agent answering 30,000+ questions a month

HOW WE WORK

From a free consultation to trying one job.

You do not need a plan or a specification. In the first conversation we learn about your work, separate what AI can handle from what people decide, and start with one job.

  1. STEP 01

    Talk it through.

    After reviewing your inquiry, we invite you to an initial consultation. We discuss your business and AI possibilities, then clarify issues, ideas, and priorities.

    About 45 to 60 minutes (you choose when booking) + a concise summary
  2. STEP 02

    Build what is needed.

    If development is useful, we agree on the scope and completion criteria before designing and building. Larger foundations can be delivered first, ready to support your work.

    Requirements, design, and implementation
  3. STEP 03

    Keep reviewing the next move.

    Continue the conversation as you learn from use and AI changes. The Delivery Department also continues development and improvements within the agreed scope.

    Ongoing strategy and delivery reviews

The first consultation is free. Single-purpose tools start at JPY 100,000. Ongoing advice is JPY 50,000 per month; with development and improvement, from JPY 300,000 per month (excluding tax). Pricing and support scope
