towalist Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Wataru Fukui; hereinafter "the Company") has begun offering "AI ENwork" (hereinafter "the Service"), an AI implementation support service specialized for the childcare industry, starting in May 2026.

Service Site: https://ai-enwork.com/
### Background of the Service
In recent years, while industries like desk work and some labor-intensive models have achieved dramatic efficiency through DX and AI, small and medium-sized enterprises in fields where technology is perceived as difficult—especially childcare providers where AI cannot physically replace essential staff—still face many barriers to enjoying the benefits of technological innovation.
**Challenges in AI Implementation:**
- Need for simultaneous development of IT literacy, security risk measures, and compliance systems.
- Importance of design and sequencing to integrate AI into detailed on-site workflows beyond initial setup.
- Necessity for continuous arrangement and adaptation of evolving AI technology to suit each facility's unique situation.
The Company aims to tackle these issues directly. Through this service, we visit the site and walk alongside childcare providers to implement AI technology in an "easy" and practical way suited to their actual circumstances.
### Service Overview of "AI ENwork"
AI ENwork is an operational-intervention consulting service that solves document creation/management burdens, person-dependent legal and labor risks, and management decision-making by combining AI power with professional expertise. It helps facilities transition to an "AI-driven organization."
A tripartite team of "Childcare Management Experts," "AI/IT Technology Specialists," and "Legal Advisors (our corporate lawyers)" supports safe and practical AI introduction. During the implementation process, we utilize existing ICT systems while combining various AI tools to build a "next-generation childcare operation platform," with 2-3 specialists (AI Strategists, AI Delivery Engineers, etc.) accompanying the facility until the system is established.
### Three Core Values Provided
1. **Comprehensive Deployment of AI Infrastructure (Ultra-efficiency in Childcare):**
Dramatic efficiency in document creation for minutes, daily reports, lesson plans, and training records. Customization for childcare allows teachers to create journals and plans instantly from bulleted notes or voice input.
2. **AI-Driven Public Relations & Marketing (Restructuring Work Mechanisms):**
Organizing currently used SaaS services and building a flexible, original operation system using AI agents. We optimize existing workflows to leap productivity across the organization.
3. **Management Decision AI Assistant (Hiring AI as a Right-hand Man):**
Creating a customized "right-hand AI" exclusively for CEOs/Directors. This includes AI for financial decision-making based on internal data, internal audit AI for regulatory changes and local government notifications, and brainstorming AI for research and ideas.
### Implementation and Operation Flow
We don't just "introduce AI and leave." We stay with you until it takes root. Specialists will continuously customize the system to match the facility's specific situation.
### Comment from CEO Wataru Fukui
"Having been involved in childcare management for over a decade, I have always felt that childcare operations have unique difficulties compared to general desk work. While back-office areas show immense potential for efficiency through AI and DX, there are tasks like contact books that directly connect to parents..."
