Aokumo Inc. Officially Releases Aokumo AI v1.0.0

Providing a multi-cluster, multi-cloud compatible execution platform that goes beyond AIOps and mandates human approval for all actions Demo at the 10th AI/Artificial Intelligence EXPO Akamai Booth Aokumo Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Yunesu Haireji, hereinafter Aokumo) has officially released version 1.0.0 of 'Aokumo AI,' Japan's first IT infrastructure execution platform combining AI automation with Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) approval for all actions. In conjunction with this, a video demo of this product will be held at the Akamai Technologies (hereinafter Akamai) booth (West Exhibition Hall 4F, Booth No. 21-24) at the '10th AI / Artificial Intelligence EXPO Spring' held at Tokyo Big Sight from April 15 (Wed) to 17 (Fri), 2026. What is Aokumo AI Aokumo AI is a platform that connects to actual infrastructure operations, going beyond AIOps which tends to stop at monitoring and alerts. It converts natural language instructions into executable actions on AWS, GCP, Azure, and Kubernetes, operating in a way that supports pre-approval and auditing. Designed so that the AI does not proceed automatically, but executes only after confirmation by an engineer, it is easy to adopt with peace of mind. Therefore, it is suitable for environments requiring strict operational standards, such as finance, healthcare, and government agencies. Key features of v1.0.0 - Multi-cluster and multi-cloud support (AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, Akamai LKE) - Execution control via human approval (HITL) for all actions - Automated audit and report generation for J-SOX IT controls (IT-03 to IT-14) - Runbook creation, scheduled execution, and event-triggered execution using natural language - Automatic generation of incident reports, audit logs, cost breakdowns, and remediation scripts - BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) deployment support - designed so data never leaves the customer's environment Moving infrastructure with natural language. "We recognize that concerns about AI touching production infrastructure remain high in Japan's financial and regulated industries. Aokumo AI is built with an approval-first approach from the core of its design, where all actions are reviewed, approved, and recorded. This is why it can be used with peace of mind even in the field where introducing other AI tools is difficult." Track record in production environments Aokumo AI has already achieved over 1,200 automated executions in production environments, recording a 94% success rate on the first run. Furthermore, it completes a full audit of J-SOX IT controls (IT-03 to IT-14) in 14 steps within 3 minutes, automatically generating audit reports, data security inventories, and remediation scripts. These achievements have been verified in enterprise environments, including major financial institutions. A new category beyond AIOps Aokumo AI is a platform in a new category in the Japanese market that places value on 'actually moving' rather than 'just monitoring'. Its feature is that it can handle everything from incident response, compliance, cost/security operations, to regular automated executions together in one platform. Since all operations can be managed under the same approval flow and audit trail, operational transparency is also maintained. Overview of the demo at the Akamai booth At the AI / Artificial Intelligence EXPO, a video demo of Aokumo AI v1.0.0 will be shown at the Akamai booth as an 'AI Agent implementation case running on Akamai Cloud'. Aokumo AI connects to Akamai's managed Linode Kubernetes Engine (LKE) to showcase its execution capabilities on Akamai Cloud through video. With Akamai's GPU infrastructure and on-premises AI inference, private operations with zero external data leakage are possible even in regulated industries.
