Incerto LLC (Headquarters: Arakawa-ku, Tokyo; Representative: Aoto Sato; https://www.incerto.tech/) is strengthening its AI development and consulting efforts centered on an economics-based approach. This involves incorporating economic approaches such as information asymmetry, incentives, mechanism design, and causal inference, which have been traditionally handled in economics, into AI development.

Incerto has, through its AI development and consulting, provided implementation support for various industries and operations, including document processing automation, operational efficiency improvements, and AI agent introduction. This strengthening of efforts will proceed by integrating areas traditionally covered by economics (such as causal inference, pricing design, demand forecasting, allocation/matching, contract/incentive design) into these existing operations.
Economics, beyond theories of price and demand, has accumulated knowledge over many years, both theoretically and empirically, on organizational and market structures. This includes contract and incentive design to resolve problems arising from information asymmetry, allocation and matching design through mechanism design, verification of effects through causal inference, and the utilization of collective intelligence and expectation formation. By combining these economic perspectives with AI development, Incerto will provide in-depth support for structural problems beyond AI automation and prediction, such as "what to handle, how to design for whom, and how to measure effects."
## Background and Purpose
Incerto has conducted AI development and consulting primarily with members who have researched AI and economics in graduate school. In their practical work to date, they have provided implementation support for various industries and operations, including document processing automation, operational efficiency improvements, and AI agent introduction. However, they have identified a certain number of areas that are difficult to handle with AI alone—such as verifying the causal effects of measures, making judgments regarding prices and demand, optimal allocation of multiple choices, contract and incentive design to resolve problems arising from information asymmetry, and designing organizations and systems. These areas overlap with themes that economics has long addressed both theoretically and empirically, including causal inference, market design, mechanism design, and contract theory.
By combining the economic research background of Incerto's members with the practical experience accumulated in AI implementation, they have decided that they can continuously provide support for these areas and thus strengthen their efforts. Moving forward, specific examples and services in each area will be progressively developed and delivered in a manner tailored to practical on-site operations.
## Areas to be Strengthened
The main areas where economic approaches will be combined with AI development are as follows. Specific service packages for each area will be announced sequentially in the future.
- **Area**: Causal Inference for Effect Verification
- **Content of Initiative**: Measuring the effects of measures from observational data and A/B tests to inform subsequent actions.
- **Examples of Application**: Measuring the effects of marketing measures, evaluating operational improvements, judging operational changes.
- **Area**: Pricing Design
- **Content of Initiative**: Designing price increases/decreases, coupons, and reviewing price ranges based on price elasticity.
- **Examples of Application**: Pricing strategies for retail, e-commerce, subscriptions, sales promotion design.
- **Area**: Demand Forecasting
- **Content of Initiative**: Forecasting with uncertainty and designing inventory, ordering, and allocation operations based on it.
- **Examples of Application**: Manufacturing, logistics, store operations, staff shift planning.
- **Area**: Allocation and Matching Design
- **Content of Initiative**: Designing vehicle dispatch, shifts, sales allocation, and matching based on market design principles.
- **Examples of Application**: Operations optimization, resource allocation, talent matching.
- **Area**: Incentive Design
- **Content of Initiative**: Designing incentives to resolve issues arising from information asymmetry and principal-agent problems, applying mechanism design to contract and KPI design.
- **Examples of Application**: Sales management, organizational management, outsourcing, supply chain.
- **Area**: Utilization of Collective Intelligence
- **Content of Initiative**: Translating external information/market forecasts into business context and reflecting them in decision-making.
- **Examples of Application**: Management decisions, risk forecasting, monitoring external environment.
Incerto will combine AI implementation in these areas and provide support in its established style of accompanying clients from design to implementation, tailored to on-site operations.
## Service Provision Model
The economics-centric approach will be customized according to each organization's operational status, data handled, and organizational structure. We offer consultations ranging from individual project-based support to continuous ongoing assistance, depending on the objective, duration, and organizational setup.
Rather than a generic package offering, our approach is based on designing solutions that consider the on-site workflow, existing data environment, and the composition of decision-makers. For details on pricing, scope of support, and duration, please inquire individually. Specific service packages corresponding to each area will be announced sequentially in the future.
