Company Info We work under the management philosophy of creating services that amaze the world, with the value of "enjoy everything with surprise in mind". We believe that everyone has a unique ability, and through the creation of our services, we hope to help "as many heroes as possible" be born.

Hayashi, one of our founders, was a Shogi player who won several national amateur championships and obtained the highest amateur rank of 6-dan at that time. Later, when he was improving his skills, he was influenced by the Artificial Intelligence (AI) of Shogi, and it was the beginning of the unknown possibilities.

We are developing products based on "AI x mobile", which is a combination of the industry-leading AI developed by our engineers that have won against professional Shogi players, and mobile which is the most accessible device to people all over the world.

In the future, we will continue research and development of machine learning such as deep learning and business applications centered on our original AI, and create a paradigm shift in each industry with the Artificial Intelligence Revolution. We want to do something interesting and surprising while maximizing the power of technology.

This is the concept behind our "Surprise to the heart."
