Chief Product Officer
Job Description
Company Overview
Founded in 2014, alt has been the pioneer in the development of P.A.I (Personal Artificial Intelligence) --a digital clone of the original human-- which is designed to digitize one's own will and make decisions with individual intent and perform in the cloud. We aim to liberate humanity from labor and enhance the value of freedom by popularizing the technology of P.A.I. worldwide. This digital counterpart navigates the online world 24/7, replacing mundane tasks including shopping, travel arrangements and so on, allowing humans to focus on what can only be done by humans.
Revolutionizing the way we work with AI solutions, we utilize the AI technologies created during our own P.A.I. research. Our flagship product is the 'AI GIJIROKU (AI Minutes)' tool, an automatic transcription tool for meetings that has been adopted by over 7000 companies. Applications of the technology expanded into other AI solutions such as the 24/7 unmanned 'AI Call Center,' the chat operator AI support system 'Neo RMR' and 'AI Interpretation,' enabling multilingual communication in online meetings. In approximately 2 years since our product launch, we have grown to become the market leader in Japan.
As our AI products continue to progress, the possibility of going public on a unicorn scale as a Japanese AI company becomes realistic. With attention from top-tier international venture capitalists as the lead investor in the Series D round held in June 2022, we are aiming for our market influence further internationally.
