AI-native CRM 'Frictio' Begins Service Partnership with StartPass

AI-native CRM 'Frictio' (developed and provided by SYSLEA Co., Ltd., headquartered in Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, CEO Yusuke Ohashi) has commenced a business partnership with StartPass Co., Ltd. (headquartered in Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, CEO Masayoshi Obara), which operates a startup management support platform. This partnership aims to support founders (entrepreneurial leaders) in building a management foundation that allows them to focus on business growth decisions, by structuring conversational data from management meetings, investor meetings, and customer negotiations using AI and connecting it with StartPass's management support knowledge. **Background** In the early stages, from seed to Series A rounds, founders are involved in all aspects of business, from product development and fundraising to recruitment and customer acquisition. The vast amount of conversations from daily negotiations and investor meetings contain crucial primary information for management decisions, but much of it is scattered in individual memories and not accumulated as organizational assets. Furthermore, founders themselves must spend time organizing and reporting this information, leading to a significant loss of management time. To address these challenges, 'Frictio' automatically acquires important data from daily conversations and organizes it as structured data within the CRM. Without separate input tasks, simply by communicating, a high-quality database is built that covers all information necessary for management decision-making. To directly link the accumulated data to more advanced management decisions, a business partnership has been formed with 'StartPass,' which has systematized judgment criteria and challenge patterns for each business stage through numerous startup support initiatives. By combining the context of daily conversations extracted by Frictio with the startup-specific management knowledge held by StartPass, the system will present, at the optimal timing, "What is the challenge this founder is currently facing?" and "What is the next step to take?". This will free founders from information organization and reporting tasks, realizing the next generation of management infrastructure where "talking alone drives business." **Partnership Overview** Through this partnership, the following initiatives will be implemented. ### 1. 'Frictio' Special Introductory Support Program for StartPass Contract Companies To help startups prevent management time loss from the initial phase, Frictio's special plan will be offered through StartPass's "Management Acceleration Cloud" and "Growth Pass." * **Target:** Companies currently contracting with StartPass * **Benefits:** Founder account for one person is free for the first year.
