AI Security Checklist Support Service "QuickCheck" Implemented by a Rapidly Growing Startup That Raised a Total of 2.35 Billion Yen in Large-Scale Funding

AI Security Solutions Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Fumiya Kadowaki), which develops AI Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) and AI consulting businesses, announces that its AI-powered automated security checklist response and support service, "QuickCheck," has been formally adopted and the initial delivery completed for a growth-phase SaaS startup company (*company name undisclosed for information security and strategic reasons*) that has raised a total of 2.35 billion yen in large-scale funding.

## ■ Background of Adoption: The 'Enterprise Wall' Faced by Growth-Phase Startups

For this startup, which has raised a total of 2.35 billion yen and is aiming for further business expansion and an IPO, strengthening its sales structure for large enterprises was an urgent task.

However, when selling to large companies, submitting a strict and complex "security checklist" with hundreds of items is mandatory. As the number of business negotiations surged, the volume of checklists to handle exploded. The security officer and lead engineers were swamped with response tasks, creating a major bottleneck unique to fast-growing companies: "delays in new feature development" and "prolonged sales lead times due to waiting for responses."

## ■ Deciding Factors for Adopting "QuickCheck"

The main reasons "QuickCheck" was chosen from among many business efficiency solutions are the following three points:

**1. "High Quality of Answers" that Meets Enterprise-Level Demands**
To clear the strict security requirements of large companies, precise and accurate answers are required. "QuickCheck" was praised for ensuring high-quality answers that can be confidently submitted to the review departments of large corporations, thanks to its hybrid system that combines high-precision AI generation with a final review by staff with security expertise.

**2. Freeing Up Core Personnel (CTO/Security Officer) Resources**
By entrusting the response creation work, which had previously consumed a significant amount of time from top internal engineers, to AI and a specialized team, the company can now concentrate its valuable internal resources on core tasks such as "improving product value" and "building a company-wide security framework for the IPO."

**3. Audit Compliance and Governance Enhancement with the "Operation Log Function"**
The operation log function implemented in "QuickCheck" visualizes who operated which sheet and when. This aligns with the internal control (governance) and ISMS audit requirements for companies in the IPO preparation phase, and the ability to securely outsource tasks was a strong driver for adoption.

## ■ Post-Adoption Results and Future Outlook

With this implementation, the startup has significantly shortened the response time for security checklists, which was the biggest obstacle in enterprise sales negotiations. This has improved the sales department's proposal speed, directly leading to an increased win rate for large deals and reduced lead times.

AI Security Solutions Inc. will continue to strongly support the development of Japan's enterprise SaaS market by providing secure, high-quality AI solutions to late-stage and IPO-ready high-growth startups.
