What it sells
Research hypothesis (not verified): Industry-specific AI SaaS (Hikari for construction, Takumi for manufacturing, Hakobi for logistics, Akinai for wholesale/retail) plus DX consulting and custom development.
Business model breakdown
Buyer: who owns the budget?
UnverifiedExecutives and DX/IT or business-line heads at large Japanese enterprises (industry-challenge led) who hire Akari as an AI development partner or subscribe to its AI SaaS.
Trigger: what makes them buy now?
Takumi addresses time consumed by document work and internal information search; the Morita president describes using AI to improve productivity and give employees opportunities to learn, rather than relying on a detailed pre-adoption ROI simulation.
Workflow: what inputs become what output?
DX Solution: extract the issue from field and management views, break it down into a technical approach, then build and deploy the AI as the client partner; AI SaaS: productised versions of the same tech.
Economics: what it saves and how it charges
Two lines of business per site: DX Solution (AI development/deployment projects) and AI SaaS (technology offered as SaaS product); no prices published.
Distribution: how it reaches customers
Public Takumi purchase path is a demo or quote inquiry. The request page says to mention quotation in the inquiry text, requires a corporate email, and excludes same-industry/student information-only requests. No form was submitted.
