AI Automatically Generates Scaffolding Drawings Entirely: 'J-smart Scaffolding Drawings (J-sma)' Expanding at a Pace of 1 Company/Day Since Launch

J.I developer Inc. (Headquarters: Minatomirai, Nishi-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa, CEO: Daisuke Shimazaki, hereinafter 'JID') officially launched 'J-smart Scaffolding Drawings (commonly known as J-sma)', a BPO service that automatically generates scaffolding drawings using AI, in April 2026. Since the start of the service, new transaction registrations have been progressing at an average pace of one company per day, gaining solid traction toward solving the structural issues faced by the scaffolding industry.

■ Development Background: 4 Structural Challenges Facing the Scaffolding Industry

At scaffolding construction sites, the drawing creation process is a major factor that narrows business opportunities.

- Long delivery times: Requires an average of 7.5 to 13 business days per project, squeezing lead times before construction starts.
- High costs: Outsourcing expenses squeeze annual sales.
- Personalization / Talent shortage: Quality varies due to reliance on small business operators and freelancers.
- Opportunity loss: Scaffolding companies unable to handle drafting cannot be involved in the prime contractor's initial stages.

JID combined the knowledge cultivated on the front lines of the construction industry with its in-house AI development capabilities to develop 'J-sma' as a service to comprehensively solve these issues.

■ Service Overview: Simply enter information into a dedicated form, and a complete set of drawings is fully delivered

'J-sma' is a BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) service where JID undertakes the entire creation of scaffolding drawings. Customers simply input the necessary information into the 'Drawing Request Form' on the dedicated website (https://www.ji-d.co.jp/jsmart/), and AI automatically generates all floor plans, elevation views, detailed drawings, and strength calculations, delivering them in a format compatible for submission to the Labor Standards Inspection Office.

All that is required on the ordering side is a mere 5 minutes of form input. Conventional cumbersome interactions such as searching for outsourcing destinations, sharing requirements, and handling revisions are completely unnecessary.

[Proven Implementation Effects]
- 23% cost reduction compared to the market
- 39% reduction in drafting man-hours
- 1.5 weeks lead time from order receipt to delivery start
- Deliverables: Scaffolding plan drawings + strength calculations (Labor Standards Inspection Office approved documents)

■ Automatic Drafting Flow via AI

- Information input from the drawing request form: Input building information into the dedicated site form (completed in 5 minutes)
- Tracing by AI: In-house AI automatically recognizes the building shape
- Proprietary algorithm calculation: Automatically calculates the optimal scaffolding layout
- Drawing generation: Automatically generates floor plans, elevations, and detailed drawings (floor plans in just 2 minutes)
- Delivery after quality check

Regarding strength calculations, it complexly processes regional data (wind load, dead weight, beam frames, etc.) and automatically outputs them in a format for Labor Standards Inspection Office submission.

■ Pricing Plan (Pay-as-you-go, no fixed monthly fees)

- Basic drawings (including tracing): ¥15,000 / sheet
- Strength calculation documents: From ¥3,000 / sheet
- Road occupancy/use drawings: From ¥8,000

Revisions are free up to 2 times. Delivered drawings comply with labor standards.

■ Post-Launch Progress: Transaction registrations expanding at a pace of 1 company per day

Since its launch in April 2026, new transaction registrations have been progressing at a pace of one company per business day on average, revealing robust needs in the industry. Including development cooperation companies, it has been introduced to a cumulative total of dozens of companies.

Through this service, the company aims to become an 'industrial infrastructure' by solving industry-wide issues of productivity improvement and labor shortages.

■ CEO Comment

Addressing the structural challenge I've seen on construction sites where 'when drawings stop, construction stops', we tackled it head-on by combining AI and BPO. We take the fact that transactions are expanding at a pace of one company a day as the exact expectation of the industry itself.
