For investors

Building the AI foundation
for semiconductor manufacturing.

We are expanding as a semiconductor AI company focused on processes, equipment and physical phenomena, supporting customers from PoC through production-line implementation.

Why now

Smaller features and more layers for AI chips

Growing manufacturing complexity increases the need for AI in yield and quality management.

A shortage of process engineers

Demand to capture and apply expert knowledge through AI is growing globally.

Renewed semiconductor investment in Japan

New fabs and investment are creating opportunities in the domestic industry.

Our technology

Causal analysis and prediction

From identifying process issues to pre-processing prediction and improvement proposals.

Coverage across the AI lifecycle

Four products: Visual Inspection AI, Causal AI, Local LLM and MLOps.

Customization

On-site engineering and deployment options including edge and hybrid configurations.

Two-layer architecture

A shared foundation for faster PoCs and site-specific implementation for production.

Traction

We are progressing from PoC to production with Japanese semiconductor and electronic component manufacturers, including IC package substrate and image sensor manufacturers. Our work analysis AI operates on an assembly line at a major automotive manufacturer.
