For international companies in Japan

Software for teams that work in English and Japanese

Maybe your managers work in English and your staff in Japanese. Maybe everyone works in one language. Either way, we build and support your software from Tokyo, in your time zone.

Rob Gagne, our CEO, is based in Tokyo and leads our work in Japan. You can talk to us in English or Japanese.

The usual problem

Development firms here usually work in one language, and offshore teams are hours away. When a company works across English and Japanese, someone ends up translating requirements, staff get tools that weren't built for them, and the important work keeps running on spreadsheets and email.

One project, two languages

  • Your team's language

    Proposals, plans and decisions in Japanese, English, or both, whichever your team uses. Nobody on your side has to translate requirements.

  • Support for your users

    Bilingual Japanese team members handle training, questions and day-to-day support in Japanese or English. If your managers work in English and your staff in Japanese, proposals come in both.

  • Software in Japanese and English

    Screens, emails and notifications in Japanese, English, or both, from day one.

  • Your time zone

    Your lead works in Japan's business day, so questions get answered the same day.

Where companies usually start

The starting point is the process you already run by hand.

  • Client or member portal

    Professional services, relocation, recruitment

    Intake, documents, status and chat in one place, instead of email threads and spreadsheets.

  • Parent, student or member app

    Schools, training providers, clinics, wellness

    A branded app with chat, calendars, forms and payments, run for you on our platform as a Managed App.

  • Operations app

    Inspections, service visits, B2B ordering

    Replaces the paper checklists and the phone calls with an app your staff use on site.

Digitization, built with AI

AI lets us turn the process you run today into software faster. Senior engineers review what it writes before anything ships. Where it helps, the software can use AI too, for example to read a form or draft a reply in the other language, with your staff checking the result.

Yours to own, and we can run it

Custom software we build is yours, code included. Managed Apps run on our platform: you own the brand and the data, and we run the rest. Either way, we can host, monitor and update it for you around the clock. That part is your choice.
