RoboRobo and SP Network Launch Compliance Integration Service

In a significant move towards strengthening customer risk management, Open Group, a leading tech firm headquartered in Tokyo, has announced a collaboration between its subsidiary, Open Co., and SP Network. This partnership marks the introduction of an innovative function integration service for RoboRobo Compliance Check, leveraging the SP Network's extensive anti-social forces database, SP RISK SEARCH®.

Background of the Collaboration

The partnership, cemented on September 9, 2025, comes at a crucial time when companies are facing heightened scrutiny and evolving risks associated with anti-social behavior, arising from increased legal regulations and social media vigilance. As businesses adapt to this climate of uncertainty, the demands for managing credit risk and ensuring compliance have never been more critical.

RoboRobo's Compliance Check has been continuously updated to expand its database connections and functionalities, integrating a broader range of information sources. These include not only risks from anti-social forces, but also rumors circulating online, international news, newspaper articles, and details from official bankruptcy notifications. This multifaceted approach equips enterprises with the comprehensive data they need to make informed decisions.

By partnering with SP Network, RoboRobo will gain access to a wealth of data accumulated within the SP RISK SEARCH® database. This collaboration builds on RoboRobo's existing AI-driven efficiencies, thereby allowing users to harness a greater volume of information through fewer resources, enhancing the overall service offering.

Key Features of the New Service

1. Exclusive Anti-Social Forces Database

SP RISK SEARCH® is a unique database that has been meticulously curated since 1960. By compiling anti-social information from national and regional newspapers, it boasts one of the largest collections of reliable data in the industry. This allows businesses to obtain precise information that can significantly enhance their risk management endeavours.

2. Expert Support for Risk Mitigation

Recognizing that merely acquiring data won’t solve complex risks, the integration will also provide access to human resources and expert insights from SP Network. This additional layer helps validate and clarify any doubts regarding data interpretation, thus increasing the reliability of the assessments made during compliance checks.

Statements from Leadership

Nobutaka Kumagai, President of SP Network, noted, “With our long-standing involvement in countering anti-social forces through data management, collaborating with Open’s RoboRobo Compliance Check allows us to leverage our expertise in providing a holistic approach to compliance checks. Our goal is to create an environment where businesses can flourish safely.”

Sadakazu Ishii, President of Open Co., expressed confidence in the partnership, stating, “In collaborating with the trusted services of SP Network, we expect to mitigate the pervasive risks in corporate governance. This integration is set to evolve the service into a comprehensive platform, supporting businesses across various sectors to confidently manage their operations.”

Looking Ahead

Following this initial integration, both companies foresee the release of new functionalities within the year. They aim to expand the scope of anti-social checks as part of their service enhancement strategy. By focusing on leveraging AI technologies, they hope to minimize effort while ensuring continuous growth in business operations.

Furthermore, current members of the SP Network’s SP Club, who utilize SP RISK SEARCH®, can anticipate the launch of a new platform named "SPRS supported by RoboRobo", which will incorporate all functionalities of RoboRobo Compliance Check, enhancing the overall user experience beginning February 2026.
