SMEs facing chronic labor shortages and increasing workload
Are you unknowingly spending time every day on tasks like these?
"When a user's condition suddenly changes, night shift staff are left fumbling alone because they can't find records of previous similar symptoms in paper files." (Nursing Care)
"Every time I receive site photos via LINE, I save them from my smartphone to my PC and paste them one by one into a Word report." (Construction/Building Contractors)
"Every time a client sends a LINE message asking for 'last month's trial balance,' I have to dig through emails and re-attach it." (Tax Accountants/Professionals)
"Drivers call to report delivery completion, and office staff manually enter the details into Excel." (Logistics/Transportation)
"Shift requests are collected via a LINE group, and then an Excel shift table is manually created based on them." (Food & Beverage/Beauty Services)
"When equipment stops, the previous troubleshooting method is only in a paper ledger, and no one knows what to do because the person in charge is on leave." (Manufacturing)
These "tasks that can only be done manually each time" are unknowingly stealing employees' and managers' time little by little every day.
Background: Why do SMEs need AI now?
Currently, SMEs with dozens to hundreds of employees are chronically experiencing situations where excellent talent doesn't come even after spending advertising money on recruitment media, and internal operations are busy and strained.
As a result, existing employees are burdened with miscellaneous tasks outside their "primary duties," leading to a gradual increase in overtime and reliance on specific individuals. While wishing for "excellent people to take over," the situation of not having such talent continues.
What is noteworthy here is that AI fundamentally differs from previous business tools.
For example, cloud accounting software and chat tools introduced until now were for "doing fixed tasks faster." However, AI has evolved into a technology that can replace tasks previously only done by humans, such as "reading situations and creating text," "making judgments based on past information," and "answering questions contextually."
Nevertheless, there is a clear reason why AI adoption is not progressing in many SMEs. Even if managers see news about AI, there is currently no AI expert within the company who can answer specific questions like "Can it be used for our invoicing operations?" or "Can even our drivers use it?"
METI to announce a shortage of 3.39 million AI specialists by 2040, concentrated in Tokyo

Consulting IT companies or large consulting firms leads to soaring costs, and trying free AI tools often ends up with them not being utilized effectively. This cycle is repeated.
The problem is that "many SMEs lack AI specialists who understand their own business and can propose optimal solutions."
Why is "accompanying-type" support necessary?
AI is not something that yields results "just by installing a tool."
It is not uncommon for AI tools introduced into a company to be hardly used by anyone after three months.
The cause is not the performance of the tool, but the lack of design regarding "which tasks to use it for" and "how to use it so that the現場 (on-site staff) can continue using it."
What is truly needed are the following three points:
Problem segmentation: The ability to judge at the operational level where AI can be effectively introduced into daily tasks. The term "AI utilization" is broad, and it is important to distinguish between tasks that AI should handle and those that humans should handle.
Task organization: On-site tasks often cannot be directly handed over to AI. Data and procedures need to be organized into a format that AI can easily process.
Retention design: Designing for continued use by on-site staff after introduction. If it feels difficult to operate or increases effort, it will stop being used instantly.
In this service, professionals involved in AI product development will interview on-site business challenges and offer two plans: "AI Advisor" (proposing what AI can solve) and "Implementation Support" (support for actual implementation).
