【Simple, so everyone can use it. Easy Toyokumo.】
Toyokumo Inc. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President: Yuji Yamamoto; hereinafter referred to as Toyokumo), which provides cloud services that are easy for anyone to use for business, has entered into a capital and business alliance agreement with Mocula Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Kenichiro Nakamura; hereinafter referred to as Mocula), which promotes the AI camera business, and has implemented an investment through a third-party allocation of shares.
Through this partnership, Toyokumo's operational know-how and sales network for kintone integration services will be integrated with Mocula's AI product development capabilities to jointly promote market expansion. This will enable AI to detect important changes in the field and provide real-time notifications and recordings of analog information (video) from the field, which has been difficult to systemize, thereby connecting on-site 'awareness' to 'action'.
We have established a system to support the resolution of chronic issues faced by companies, such as 'labor shortage in the field,' 'increasing management costs,' and 'visualization of safety risks.' Both companies will accelerate joint development towards the official release of 'AI Camera (tentative name),' the 7th in Toyokumo's kintone integration service lineup, within 2026.
**Background and Purpose of Capital and Business Alliance**
Both companies signed a basic agreement for a business alliance in October 2025 and have been conducting market validation of new businesses utilizing webcams as 'Human Eye Cloud.' As a result, we confirmed a strong need from companies to 'digitize analog information from the field in real-time and utilize it for business improvement and accident prevention,' as well as the practicality of AI camera technology, leading to the current capital and business alliance.
This alliance will integrate Toyokumo's sales network with the AI product development expertise of Mocula, led by Kenichiro Nakamura, to promote the development of solutions that directly address corporate challenges.
**Current Status and Technical Features of "AI Camera" Development**
The 'AI Camera,' the 7th in Toyokumo's kintone integration service lineup, is currently offering closed monitor access for functional verification in actual user environments. One of the benefits of this service is its flexible deployment using general-purpose network cameras, without requiring expensive dedicated analysis cameras (cameras must be Mocula's designated products). This significantly lowers the initial investment hurdle, enabling the easy and rapid establishment of an 'AI-powered 24/7 field monitoring system.' The AI can automatically detect on-site situations, simultaneously achieving notification and data digitization.
**Inquiries for Consultation and Monitors for Solving Your Company's Issues**
Companies interested in consulting on solving their on-site issues, receiving notifications of the latest service information, or participating in the closed monitor for functional verification are welcome to contact Mocula Inc. via their dedicated contact form (https://www.mocula.co.jp/#contact). Please include 'Regarding AI Camera' at the beginning of your inquiry.
**On-site Issues Solvable and kintone Integration Image**
The 'AI Camera' analyzes on-site information, which was previously only observable by human eyes, in real-time and directly records it as structured digital data into kintone records. It not only provides immediate notifications of abnormalities or important events but also, by linking detected data with kintone, promotes situation sharing and data analysis within business systems, contributing to faster decision-making and increased productivity across the organization.
**Main Functions and Features**
* **Immediate Detection & Automatic Notification:** Detection of on-site events via webcam and alerts to responsible personnel.
* **Cost Reduction:** Automation of 24/7 field monitoring.
* **Data Structuring:** Real-time conversion of video data (analog information) into kintone records (digital information).
* **System Integration:** Sharing and analysis of detected data within business systems through kintone integration.
**Usage Examples**
To solve the challenges of target customers, it can be utilized in the following scenarios:
**Safety & Security**
* Detection of helmet non-wearers in construction and manufacturing sites and immediate notification.
* Detection of entry into restricted areas and notification to administrators.
**Operational Efficiency & Facility Management**
* Detection of arrival of delivery services (e.g., parcels) and notification to the recipient.
* Counting people in specific areas and grasping congestion status.
* Detection of unauthorized use of meeting rooms by cross-referencing with calendar reservation data.
**Labor & Equipment Management**
* Detection of office occupants during late nights or holidays.
* Notification of replenishment timing based on recognition of consumable inventory levels.
**Comments from Company Representatives**
**Yuji Yamamoto, President and Representative Director of Toyokumo Inc.**
At Toyokumo, we continue to develop services with the aim of 'democratizing information services.' This partnership combines general-purpose cameras and AI technology to convert analog information from the field into digital data.
Through market validation, we have become convinced of the business potential to deliver DX to areas that were previously difficult to systemize, and have therefore strengthened our capital ties. By integrating Mr. Nakamura's development capabilities with our sales power, we will provide new functions and value to kintone users.
**Kenichiro Nakamura, President and Representative Director of Mocula Inc.**
Through our verification with Toyokumo, we have confirmed that our AI camera service contributes to the digitization of field operations. With this capital and business alliance, we have established a system to deploy this service to more sites by leveraging Toyokumo's sales network.
We view AI cameras not merely as tools for 'surveillance,' but as an 'interface that captures changes in the field and leads to action.' Furthermore, by integrating the entire workflow of detection, notification, response, and recording, we will transform field operations themselves.
We will make the on-site awareness that has relied on human eyes accessible to everyone through technology, contributing to business improvement and enhanced safety. We will continue to develop and provide valuable services with an emphasis on practical use in the field.
