■ About This Update

Since its release in January 2026, "GEAR.indigo Biz" has been increasingly adopted, primarily by contract development businesses and in-house development teams.

This update introduces support for BYOK (Bring Your Own Key).

【BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) Support】

Customers can now connect and use their existing API keys from services such as OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, and Google Gemini directly with "GEAR.indigo Biz."

As the configuration utilizes your own API keys, meeting notes and requirement information are processed on the AI service you have contracted with, rather than through the Company's managed AI usage environment.

This not only facilitates compliance with internal security policies but also allows you to use the tool for free when using BYOK.

Furthermore, the BYOK plan can be used by both individuals and organizations.

For organizational use, team collaboration is possible within the following scope:

Item

Limit

Individual/User

Up to 10 people

Participating Organizations

Up to 3 organizations

Number of Projects

Up to 6 projects

Codebases

Up to 6 codebases

Canvases

■ About GEAR.indigo Biz

"GEAR.indigo Biz" is an AI-driven solution that consistently supports the process from requirement definition to design by inputting meeting notes, hearing content, existing code, and more.

Its purpose is not merely to provide an AI tool, but to support the creation of organizations that can effectively utilize AI.

The AI understands the dependencies and prerequisites for each stage, generating and organizing deliverables, thereby preventing omissions and ensuring uniform quality.

Generation of requirement definition and design deliverables from meeting notes, files like Excel/PDF, and Notion integration

Consistency checks and identification of missing items for each document through AI review

Reverse engineering of existing code through GitHub integration and Zip file import

Design based on existing systems (additional generation from reverse engineering)

Planning Canvas: A function to structurally organize ideas for new businesses and system planning, and to conduct hypothesis testing, market research, and ROI analysis.
