Experience the Cutting Edge of Customer Service AI
On November 18, 2025, the ZEALS AI Summit was held at Shibuya Hikarie Hall, offering attendees a firsthand look at the latest developments in customer service AI. Organized by ZEALS, a leading provider of AI agents, this business conference was themed around "The Future of Hospitality Driven by AI Agents."
The event featured various industry leaders, including Yosuke Miyama from Sparty, a pioneer company that introduced the Japanese voice functionality of Omakase.ai. Attendees had the opportunity to hear real stories about the decision-making process, the backgrounds of implementation, outcomes, and how AI is reshaping customer relations through fascinating conversational experiences.
CEO's Keynote Address
During the keynote, CEO Masahiro Shimizu introduced the newly launched "Omakase Robotics." He showcased a live demonstration of the robot powered by Omakase.ai, giving an exciting glimpse of the future.
Shimizu also emphasized ZEALS' mission to position 2025 as the "Year of the AI Agent". Within just one year, ZEALS AI Agent has been successfully adopted by over 50 enterprise clients. Omakase.ai has experienced explosive growth, generating over 15,000 AI agents within seven months and ranking first on major product evaluation sites. He highlighted the philosophy of "Always Be Launching," which signifies a commitment to continuous improvement in AI development.
