Micronity Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yuichiro Yamazaki; hereinafter referred to as "Micronity"), which develops an AI-driven software business succession platform, has achieved an ARR of 2.5 billion yen in approximately one year since its establishment and has completed the business succession of five software companies. We are pleased to announce that we have raised a total of 2.2 billion yen through a third-party allotment of shares in our seed round, primarily from domestic venture capital (VC) firms and individual investors. With this funding, we will accelerate the strengthening of our M&A and PMI (Post Merger Integration) systems for industry-specific software companies, automate the operation of software businesses using AI agents, and promote recruitment activities.

◼︎ Background

With 52.1% of domestic small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) facing a lack of successors (Note 2), the technological assets of "industry-specific software" companies supporting construction, manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, and local governments are at risk of being lost at the time of business succession. Micronity is developing a business succession platform centered on AI agents to address this social issue. By implementing AI agents into the succeeded software businesses, we evolve them into next-generation entities capable of autonomous operation of human-dependent tasks.

Japan is a "nation of advanced challenges" facing structural issues such as a declining birthrate, aging population, and a shortage of successors ahead of the rest of the world. We will first establish a new model of AI-driven business succession in Japan and then expand it to countries around the world facing similar challenges.

◼︎ Use of Funds Raised

The funds raised will be used to accelerate the AI implementation and social recognition of Micronity's "Software Business Succession Platform," and to welcome more software companies into our group through M&A. In addition to existing businesses, we will also utilize these funds to develop new AI services that redefine the industrial structure itself, thereby expanding our robust business foundation.

◼︎ The Form of "Business Succession Ecosystem" Realized by Micronity

With this funding, we will accelerate sustainable growth through AI utilization as a unique group of software companies. By combining AI agents with the succeeded software businesses, we will evolve them into "next-generation foundations that autonomously support industries," maximizing the market competitiveness inherent in software.

Beyond inheriting and revitalizing existing businesses, we will continue to challenge ourselves to redefine the industrial structure by creating new software and AI tools from scratch that constantly provide new added value to society. Furthermore, we will pursue synergies among the diverse software companies participating in the platform and achieve leapfrog growth that would be impossible for individual companies through a "co-creation ecosystem" where knowledge is shared across the entire group.

◼︎ About Us

We operate "Micronity," an AI-driven software business succession platform. We are a group of software companies that inherit technologies and customer trust cultivated over many years to the next generation, achieving sustainable growth that would be difficult for individual companies alone through co-creation among group companies.

In an era where all software is becoming more advanced and intelligent due to AI evolution, the value of niche and specialized software is increasing. Through the succession of diverse software businesses and our own service development, we promote DX for companies and contribute to the advancement and sustainable evolution of various industries.
