This demonstration was conducted over a long period through the introduction and on-site operation at chemical industry-related companies, including Nikichi Sangyo Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Itabashi-ku, Tokyo), verifying its effectiveness on a business basis. Regulatory compliance judgment tasks for chemicals, which traditionally took half a day to a full day, were reduced to approximately 5 minutes (a reduction of about 95%). In addition to significant time savings, high implementation effects such as improved operational quality and increased sales were confirmed.

■ Results of the Demonstration Experiment

In chemical import operations, it is necessary to confirm multiple laws and regulations, such as the Chemical Substances Control Law, Industrial Safety and Health Act, Poisonous and Deleterious Substances Control Law, Chemical Substance Management Law, and Food Sanitation Act, for each component. This has led to industry-wide challenges such as reliance on individual expertise, lack of evidence, and delays in judgment.

"OVERSEE CLEARLY," developed by AI Hikari, Inc. with next-generation advanced technology, is an AI solution that collectively determines the applicability of five laws with article citations simply by uploading an SDS (Safety Data Sheet). The following results were confirmed in this demonstration experiment:

Work time: Half a day to 1 day → Approximately 5 minutes (95% reduction)
Operational quality: Established a judgment process with evidence remaining at the article level, immediately usable as evidence for customs and audit responses.
Sales improvement: Immediate response possible from SDS receipt to reply, preventing missed business opportunities.
