alt aims to develop personal artificial intelligence that accelerates the realization of an autonomous society by making memories eternal, reproducing will, and maximizing and externalizing individual value. Since our founding, we’ve been consistently researching and developing P.A.I. with two missions: “from Laboro to Opera” and "making our existence eternal." P.A.I. (Personal Artificial Intelligence) is to digitize our intentions and bring them to the cloud so that AI clones can do any digital work; we’re building a world in which everyone has their own AI, freed from labor (Lavoro) and able to immerse themselves in artistic activity (Opera).
We’re pleased to announce our selection in the Lifestyle and Finance category of the 100 Companies Creating the Future Market (2025 Edition) in recognition of our efforts to promote AI technology and the shift of companies to AI/DX.
■ Research and practical application of P.A.I.
Through the development and dissemination of P.A.I. tailored to each individual, we will maximize people's potential and value in the present and future.
alt has been conducting research and development in generative AI for 10 years—long before generative AI began trending. Our main product, AI GIJIROKU, launched in 2020, is a communication intelligence that improves transcription accuracy through machine learning, improving business efficiency and promoting communication. AI GIJIROKU has been introduced to over 8,000 companies to date, significantly reducing the burden of creating minutes and sharing information for users.
We’ve set ourselves the goal of supplementing 50 million workers with AI clones by 2030, doing our part in raising Japan's GDP to 10 trillion dollars. This initiative is part of alt's mission to realize a society where people around the world are freed from unproductive labor and can lead richer lives.
