■ Background and Challenges
Despite the rising momentum for business creation fueled by government startup support and the lifting of bans on side jobs, the success rate for new businesses is often called 'Sen-mitsu' (one in a thousand), meaning only about 3 out of 1,000 ideas (0.3%) actually succeed.
In this environment, about 50% of companies working on new businesses cite 'creating profitable business ideas' as their greatest challenge. Even with existing strengths and technologies, many struggle to draw a 'logic for profit'—identifying whose problem to solve and how to make money—leading to difficulties in building internal consensus even for passionate ideas.
Furthermore, the 'quagmire of document creation' is a serious issue. It is said that setting personas, researching competitors/substitutes, calculating market sizes, and filling out various frameworks to prove an idea's validity takes an average of 3 to 5 months. This extreme slowness from planning to output represents a fatal opportunity loss.
Therefore, we have systematized our expertise in supporting new business development into an AI tool. Lemonovation is not just an idea-generation tool; it calculates backward from a 'profitable goal' to present the shortest route to commercialization.
■ Three Features of 'Lemonovation'
The business creation AI leads your business building by 'calculating backward from the goal.' Lemonovation is more than just a brainstorming tool. It converts numerical targets, such as 'how much you want to earn in how many years,' into a highly feasible business model.
■ Recommended For:
- New business development managers: Those who want to reduce the man-hours from idea generation to document creation by utilizing strengths and technologies.
- Executives/Managers of new business departments: Those who want to cultivate 'talent capable of creating businesses' within the company through practical OJT using specialized AI tools.
- Aspiring entrepreneurs/side-hustlers: Those who want to convert their 'passions' or 'experiences' into a business model that is guaranteed to sell.
■ From Idea Generation to Business Plan Creation
Step 1: Input your strengths and technologies.
Step 2: AI proposes business ideas.
Step 3: Select and deep-dive into an idea.
Output: Automatically generate a business planning document.
■ As Short as 5 Minutes. Generate a Complete 'Business Plan Set' Ready for Use Today
Turn your ideas into 'persuasive planning documents.' Based on the selected idea, the AI automatically generates the following documents:
- Elevator Pitch
- Persona and Customer Segmentation
- Business Model Canvas
- Market Size (TAM/SAM/SOM)
- PEST Analysis
- Competitor/Substitute Analysis
- Revenue Model, Cost Items, KPIs, and Risk Hypotheses
■ User Voice
■ Secure Environment
- Protection of Confidential Information: Entered information is never disclosed to other users. It is managed in an environment completely isolated for each customer.
- Not Used for AI Training: Input data is not used for training AI models. There is no risk of leaking confidential information to the outside.
- Safe Server Environment: Data is managed on servers on Microsoft Azure. You can use the service with peace of mind on an enterprise-grade security foundation.
■ Our Vision
'When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.'
Turn sour experiences (lemons) into valuable results (lemonade).
Lemonovation was developed based on the inspiration of 'Effectuation,' a principle of action for excellent entrepreneurs (a way of thinking that creates new value from currently available means in the face of an unpredictable future).
Starting a new business (0 to 1) is a difficult challenge. However, we believe that the difficulties, challenges, and sour experiences you have faced so far can be transformed into value.
Along with this release, we will offer a 'Free Trial Plan' as a beta launch campaign to further evolve the product through user feedback.
