freee K.K. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Daisuke Sasaki; hereinafter 'freee') has launched a new feature called 'AI Easy Document Search' for its free product, 'freee Legal Compliance Guide,' which is designed to reduce the burden of legal compliance tasks for administrative departments. This feature allows users to easily find specific information by simply asking questions, eliminating the need to search manually. ■ 'freee Legal Compliance Guide' for Efficient Information Gathering Gathering information on legal revisions is critical for companies, yet it poses a significant burden on administrative staff. The 'freee Legal Compliance Guide' has already streamlined this process through three steps: 1. Inviting users (User Invitation Function) 2. Assigning staff (Staff Assignment Function) 3. Monthly automated updates (Notification of Legal Revision Additions and Updates) This system has received numerous positive reviews from users, noting that monthly information gathering has become significantly easier. ■ New 'AI Easy Document Search' for Further Automation The newly implemented 'AI Easy Document Search' enhances access to information precisely when users need it. By asking the AI questions in a chat window provided for each legal revision, users receive direct answers and relevant source documents. This reduces the effort required to identify key points such as 'what is changing in this legal revision' or 'which business sites are affected.' - Dedicated chat window per law: Users can ask questions related to specific laws on each legal revision page. - Answers and references: The AI provides a response (note 1) along with the corresponding material from the 'freee Legal Compliance Guide,' supporting reliable information retrieval. Note 1: Users are limited to 20 questions per day. ■ Making 'freee Legal Compliance Guide' a Gateway for AI Utilization 'freee Legal Compliance Guide' serves as a gateway for businesses to benefit from AI easily. freee continues to pursue the automation of information gathering to enable administrative departments to focus on higher value-added tasks. ■ 'Latest Legal Compliance Summit' Hosted with Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and Experts To address corporate legal compliance, freee will host the 'Latest Legal Compliance Summit.'
