Transforming Contracts into Management Assets: ConPass AI Assistant Launch
Japan Purple Inc. has officially launched its new feature, the ConPass AI Assistant (beta), aimed at revolutionizing contract management by converting contracts into essential management assets. This innovative tool will be available starting January 20, 2026, as part of their contract management digital transformation service, ConPass.
Introducing the ConPass AI Assistant
The ConPass AI Assistant utilizes artificial intelligence to provide comprehensive support, from analyzing complex business documents to detecting risks while also converting these documents into structured data. The goal is to minimize the burden on legal, accounting, and operational departments, enabling them to make high-precision management decisions based on contract data. Notably, this beta version is available for free to all users, regardless of their plan, and without limitations on usage.
Addressing the Growing Complexity of Legal Regulations
In recent years, legal regulations surrounding businesses have become increasingly complex due to new laws like the Electronic Book Preservation Law, the Freelance Protection Act, and the upcoming Small Contract Transactions Improvement Act effective on January 1, 2026. Despite advancements in digitizing contracts, many organizations still rely on outdated manual processes for contract management.
A survey conducted by Japan Purple in late 2025 revealed that 66.1% of companies felt that contract management had become overly dependent on specific individuals. Furthermore, only 11.4% of firms could quickly identify contracts impacted by legal changes, indicating a widespread reliance on manual document inspection. This has resulted in significant information silos where historical insights are not utilized effectively within organizations.
How ConPass AI Assistant Works
The ConPass AI Assistant is designed to alleviate these issues through interactive and natural language-based AI search capabilities. For instance, users can ask, "Please extract contracts affected by the revised laws," and the AI will instantly visualize core information from all contracts. This functionality dramatically reduces the burden of risk analysis and speeds up responses to legal changes. Moreover, it allows for cross-analysis of contracts, invoices, and payment data, converting previously buried insights into valuable company assets and accelerating data-driven decision-making.
Key Features of the ConPass AI Assistant
1.
Significant Reduction in Work Hours: The AI rapidly extracts critical information from contracts, invoices, and orders, drastically minimizing manual data entry and verification efforts to maximize operational efficiency.
2.
Compliance Risk Mitigation: The tool automatically manages expiration dates and renewal clauses, as well as detecting risk clauses arising from regulatory changes, thus preventing compliance violations and cost leaks.
3.
Accelerated Decision-Making: Users can swiftly generate valid contract lists by client or vendor, while also managing essential information for project evaluations and contractor guarantee clauses.

Expert Insight from Japan Purple’s CEO
Lin Sojusuke, the president of Japan Purple, commented on the launch: "Since our founding in 1972, we have been committed to protecting our clients' vital information. In an era of digitalization, merely digitizing data is not sufficient; it is imperative to identify risks from that data and support decision-making. With this new feature of ConPass, we aim to liberate managers from routine tasks so they can focus on creating genuine value in a more conducive business environment."
Conclusion
The ConPass AI Assistant represents a significant leap forward in the field of contract management by transforming traditional contract documents into dynamic management resources. This innovative service promises to enhance efficiency, reduce risk, and ultimately empower businesses to thrive in a continuously evolving regulatory landscape.
