Uravation Launches 'AI Advisory Service' to Ensure Practical Application Beyond Training

Uravation (Headquarters: Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Suguru Sato) has launched an 'AI Advisory Service' designed to ensure corporate AI training translates into actual workplace usage. CEO Suguru Sato personally acts as the point of contact, providing external 'AI Promotion Office' functions that cover everything from AI strategy design to daily consultations, training, and implementation support.

■ The Challenge: 'AI Implemented but Not Used'

Despite the widespread adoption of generative AI, many companies struggle with tools being underutilized. Without ongoing support after training, initial enthusiasm often fades. This service is specifically designed to bridge the gap after training.

■ Common Barriers to AI Adoption

Organizations struggling with AI integration often face these common obstacles:
- Employees struggle to apply knowledge to their specific tasks after training.
- Lack of internal experts to consult on prompts or tool selection.
- A gap between management's directives and the operational reality in the field.

■ Uravation's Solution: 'An External AI Promotion Office'

Rather than functioning as a standard training or consulting firm, Uravation commits to creating an environment where AI is genuinely used in the field by acting as an outsourced AI Promotion Office.

■ Service Menu

The service combines the following four components tailored to corporate needs:
- AI Strategy Design: Workflow assessment, identification of use cases, roadmaps, and tool selection.
- Chat Consultation: On-demand support via Slack/Teams/email, prompt review, and immediate feasibility feedback.
- Regular Reviews: Monthly or weekly meetings to reflect on progress and discuss future measures.
- AI Training & Workshops: Hands-on practical training, departmental customization, and follow-up sessions.

■ Addressing Both Management and Field Staff

The service supports both levels of the organization:
- For Management: Investment insights, progress visualization, roadmap updates, and monthly reporting.
- For Field Staff: Ready-to-use prompts, technical support, and chat-based problem-solving.

■ Direct CEO Involvement

CEO Suguru Sato, who oversees the firm's training operations, serves as the primary contact, ensuring insights gained from frontline teaching are reflected in client strategies. Uravation actively uses AI agents for the majority of its own operations, demonstrating a commitment to AI beyond just training others.

■ Target Audience

- Companies struggling with AI adoption after training.
- Firms lacking suitable candidates for an internal AI promotion role.
- Executives frustrated by the lack of field action despite management directives.
- Companies aiming to implement AI across multiple departments simultaneously.

■ Flexible Plans

Multiple plans are available, ranging from spot consultations to weekly ongoing support.

■ Representative Comment

'Many corporate clients tell us that while AI training is exciting initially, usage often drops off three months later,' says Suguru Sato, CEO of Uravation. 'We believe that the period after training is the most challenging and valuable. By acting as an external AI Promotion Office, I aim to help companies make AI an integral part of their operations.'
