A New Era for AI in Japanese Business
A.R. Street Co., based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has officially launched a groundbreaking service aimed at assisting Japanese enterprises with the in-house production of AI agents. Dubbed the 'In-House AI Agent Support Service', this initiative comes at a pivotal moment, as many organizations prepare for what is being called the 'Year of AI Agents' in 2025.
Challenges Facing Japanese Companies
Through detailed research, A.R. Street has identified several hurdles companies encounter when attempting to implement AI agents:
- - Security and Compliance Concerns: Approximately 68% of surveyed businesses expressed fears about data leaks and hallucinations from AI.
- - Fragmentation of Data Across Systems: 27% reported issues related to poorly organized data and infrastructure.
- - Skills Gap and Workforce Shortages: A global shortage of skilled developers continues to plague the industry.
- - Lack of Clear Use Cases: 32% indicated their investment decisions are stalled due to unclear strategies for AI utilization.
Innovative Solution: Low-Code and iPaaS Approach
The new support service merges low-code AI workflows with Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS). This combination aims to democratize AI development, allowing even non-engineers to participate in the process. By utilizing widely recognized platforms like Dify and n8n, client companies can securely operate AI agents within their own environments, ensuring high standards of security.
Businesses can directly use their insights to input prompts and contextual information essential for AI development. This bridge between business and development teams greatly accelerates the implementation and testing processes. Moreover, by leveraging existing SaaS systems and utilizing iPaaS for data linkage, companies can verify their AI agents effectively without altering current operations.
A Comprehensive Support Program
A.R. Street offers a structured support program that facilitates a phased approach to integrating AI agents across organizations. The three stages of this program include:
1.
Information Gathering and Governance: Performing business interviews, selecting use cases, determining data infrastructure, and providing AI training.
2.
Proof of Concept and Infrastructure Development: Executing several PoCs within a SaaS environment, constructing iPaaS data linkages, and testing the data infrastructure.
3.
Full Deployment and Operations: Deploying the production environments and developing training manuals to guide organization-wide rollout.
A.R. Street has already assisted multiple businesses in constructing workflows using Dify, positioning this new service as a crucial next step for companies looking to successfully implement the knowledge gained during training into real-world applications.
Ongoing Information Sharing
The company actively shares insights regarding Dify and n8n on platforms like YouTube and note.com, enhancing accessibility to practical applications.
Future Aspirations
A.R. Street aims to establish 100 partnerships throughout 2025, the anticipated start of widespread AI agent implementation. Plans for enhancing their services include developing multi-cloud environments and advanced multi-agent systems. This ongoing support is intended to bolster a robust foundation for AI-native businesses within Japan.
