Secondly, we need a platform service that allows easy access to AI/IoT technologies from various vendors and Idein technologies. Currently, AI/IoT solutions for various issues are emerging from various companies, but user companies are exhausted by the situation where they have to somehow integrate and use multiple services consisting of different UI/UX, fee structures, devices and infrastructure to achieve their goals. The current concept of Actcast was born out of the need to have a marketplace and easy access to real-world information gathering applications from various vendors, to have a unified UI/UX, and to reduce costs by unifying devices and infrastructure to enable the use of high-level technology.

Unlike software that works according to specifications, it is difficult to evaluate the value of software that uses technologies such as AI/IoT, especially image analysis and voice analysis, until it is introduced into the field. The value of the data that can be obtained is often not known until it is actually taken. As with most Internet businesses, you need to be able to start small and grow through a process of repeated hypothesis testing. The concept of using the Raspberry Pi, an inexpensive and easy-to-use general-purpose computer, as the first supporting device, as well as the concept of remotely updating applications and charging per device per day, is based on such thinking.

We are proud to say that Actcast is a service that combines innovative concepts with cutting-edge technology. Although we just officially launched in January 2020, we have received interest from a variety of companies, including over 100 partners. We are constantly working to improve our services to make them easier to use and safer to meet your expectations. It is my dream that the ideas of users and vendors around the world will be tested on Actcast, and that these ideas will blossom to launch the next generation of various software industries. I would like to make efforts with my colleagues to realize this goal.
