VALANCE, a Tokyo-based platform for corporate AI use, has signed a business partnership with Mitsuida Shoji, a Kyoto City company that supplies office equipment and network systems. The two will jointly visit mid-sized and small and medium-sized enterprises in Kyoto Prefecture and propose AI use matched to each company's business challenges, building knowledge to support regional AI adoption through Mitsuida Shoji.
VALANCE runs a platform that handles the parts of corporate AI use that individual tools do not: management of business data, authentication, and access control. Under the agreement, VALANCE and Mitsuida Shoji will jointly visit mid-sized and small and medium-sized enterprises across Kyoto Prefecture and propose AI use matched to each company's business challenges, while accumulating customer support experience on the ground.
The support covers consulting to organize business challenges and AI methods, organizing and centrally managing business data, designing and developing AI applications tailored to operations, and backing operations after introduction. Envisioned applications include sales and customer information management, quotations and order management, inventory and production management, and document data extraction and reconciliation work.
