Introducing CONNEXT's AI Service: The Digital Employees Series for Small Businesses

CONNEXT's Revolutionary AI Service for Small Businesses

In a bold move to address the growing concerns of labor shortages among small business owners and entrepreneurs, CONNEXT Co., Ltd., based in Katsushika, Tokyo, has unveiled its innovative AI service: the Digital Employees Series. Set to launch in September 2026, this service aims to drastically reduce the burden of administrative tasks by leveraging advanced AI technologies.

A New Era: From Inquiring AI to Delegating AI

Over recent years, AI chat solutions have matured into valuable consultative tools, often used for answering queries. However, traditional tasks still require human intervention, leaving many business owners overwhelmed with workload. The Digital Employees Series represents a paradigm shift; it empowers AI not just to assist, but to take over actual tasks, functioning as a working AI. This new service can interact with routine software tools, including emails, Excel, accounting programs, and file management systems, without necessitating disruption to existing workflows. As a result, businesses can significantly reduce their manual input time, focusing instead on core activities.

Simplified AI Adoption Without IT Expertise

Designed specifically for individual entrepreneurs and small to medium-sized enterprises, the Digital Employees Series is user-friendly. It allows businesses to implement AI solutions without requiring dedicated IT personnel. Customers can efficiently leverage their existing tools like email and Excel, making this service particularly appealing to sectors like construction and transportation, which are facing acute labor shortages.

Three Key Features of the Digital Employees Series

1. Seamless Integration: There’s no need for a complete system overhaul. The service utilizes current software, delegating routine data entry tasks to AI, enhancing efficiency in familiar environments.
2. Data Protection and Privacy: With a robust security framework, the AI does not learn from customer data, minimizes data retention, and ensures no information is transmitted externally. Data is handled exclusively within Japan, utilizing servers situated in Tokyo and Osaka.
3. Thorough Testing Before Launch: Prior to deployment, extensive checks are conducted using actual business data to confirm accuracy. All important operations, such as payments and data transmissions, are supervised by personnel, guaranteeing a dependable process.

Highlighting the 'Office Assistant' Feature

The cornerstone of the Digital Employees Series is the 'Office Assistant' (Jimu no Suke), which automates daily administrative tasks. Its functionalities include:

- Automated data entry into Excel or internal systems based on document reading.
- Drafting replies for inquiry emails and routing them to appropriate personnel.
- Organizing customer information from emails into structured lists and folders.
- Reading invoices, generating accounting entries, and integrating them into accounting software.
- Creating meeting minutes, daily reports, and email drafts from negotiation notes.
- Custom AI development catering to specific industries like construction and logistics.

Pricing Structure

The Digital Employees Series operates on a straightforward pricing model: a monthly base fee of 10,000 yen (excluding tax) per project, along with additional charges of 5,000 to 10,000 yen per task performed. This transparent pricing strategy ensures accessibility for businesses, even as they scale up their workforce without incurring extra fees.
