Kimura Information Technology Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Saga City, Saga Prefecture; President & CEO: Takao Kimura), a provider of business support AI solutions, will launch 'Biziani AI,' an AI-powered animation video production service for corporations, starting May 14, 2026.
'Biziani AI' has experienced human creators handle the core creative aspects such as planning, scriptwriting, storyboarding, and editing, while the video production process is streamlined by AI. This achieves a 30-40% price reduction and approximately 50% shorter delivery time compared to the market rate for general corporate video production, all while maintaining high quality.

**Background of the Service Launch**
The domestic market for corporate video production is estimated to be worth 300-400 billion yen and is expected to continue its high growth, backed by the penetration of DX, the establishment of online training, and the expanding use of video in IR and recruitment.
Meanwhile, generative AI video production technology, which has rapidly advanced in recent years, is reaching a quality level suitable for commercial use around 2026-2027, and the market is about to enter the 'first year of AI video adoption.' However, there are still few specialized services that can balance this quality level with the price and delivery advantages of AI.
Seizing this market turning point, we have launched 'Biziani AI' as a specialized service that redesigns the production flow with AI utilization as a premise, aiming to achieve the low cost, short delivery time, and high quality unique to an AI-native approach.
**Three Features of 'Biziani AI'**
**Price: 30-40% Reduction Compared to Market Rate** We achieve an average reduction of 30-40% compared to the typical animation production cost (500,000 to 2 million yen). The efficiency benefits of the AI video generation process are passed on to our customers as price savings.
**Delivery Time: Approx. 50% Shorter** We shorten the production period, which traditionally took 1-3 months, to 2-4 weeks. You won't miss the timing for product releases or campaigns.
**Quality: A Reliable Finish by Human Creators** Planning, scriptwriting, storyboarding, and editing are all handled by experienced human creators. Our human checkpoint system before delivery eliminates the 'obvious AI-made awkwardness' and ensures a high standard of quality.
