What the consultation gives you

Not a sales pitch — you leave with a clear picture of your situation and the next step.

💰

Subsidy eligibility assessment

We tell you which programs you may use, such as the Digitalization / AI Adoption Subsidy (up to ¥4.5M) and labor-saving investment subsidies.

🎯

Pinpoint the tasks AI can improve

We work out together, in priority order, which tasks give the biggest result when AI-enabled.

📊

Rough cost & timeline

We provide an estimated cost for adoption and a guide to how soon you can start.

🚀

How to start with a PoC (small trial)

Rather than going big from day one, a low-risk way to validate the effect first.

About subsidies: In 2026 you can use the "Digitalization / AI Adoption Subsidy" (up to ¥4.5M, subsidy rate 1/2-4/5) and the "SME Labor-Saving Investment Subsidy" (up to ¥100M). For details, see our summary of subsidies SMEs in Chiba can use for AI adoption.
* Subsidy approval is not guaranteed. Please refer to each program's official site for the latest guidelines.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a cost?

The 1-on-1 consultation is completely free, and there is no hard sell afterwards.

Is it okay if I'm not sure whether I qualify for a subsidy?

Yes. We start by assessing whether you may be eligible and figure it out together. Feel free to consult us even if you're at the "not sure I can use one" stage.

Can I join without AI knowledge?

Of course. We avoid jargon and explain in plain terms tailored to your business.

How does the online session work?

After you book, we send a Zoom (or similar) link when confirming the schedule. No special preparation is needed.

Can it be in Japanese?

Of course, Japanese support is also available. The Japanese version is here.
