Vision to Launch AI-Powered “Global WiFi® type AI” for Network Optimization in August 2026

Vision Inc. announced that it has developed “Global WiFi® type AI,” a next-generation service that uses AI technology to optimize communication networks and improve users’ quality of experience (QoE). The service is scheduled to launch in August 2026. The service is being developed as part of the company’s effort to enhance its SIMBANK-based communication control platform. “Global WiFi® type AI” collects and analyzes communication data from Wi-Fi routers in real time, including signal strength, communication quality, usage records, usage status, and location information. It then uses AI technology to select and control the optimal communication network. The service combines two types of AI-based control. First, AI optimizes SIM and network assignment by selecting the best communication line based on signal conditions, congestion, and related factors. Second, AI evaluates QoE based on actual usage data such as communication speed and responsiveness to determine whether the service is genuinely usable. Based on these judgments, the system automatically performs controls such as SIM switching and network reconnection, aiming to provide a stable communication environment without requiring user operation. The company noted that conventional communication services have mainly been optimized around network indicators such as signal strength and connection availability, while users may still face situations where they are connected but the service is difficult to use. Vision is therefore focusing not only on connection status but on the actual user experience, and is developing AI control designed to improve QoE using communication performance data. Key features under development include AI-based communication network optimization, QoE-based control that determines whether users can actually use the connection, multi-network support using multiple carriers and SIM resources, and continuous optimization through accumulated communication data. In the future, Vision also expects to expand the technology into predictive control and integrated optimization of Wi-Fi and eSIM. The service is currently under development, with verification underway toward the planned August 2026 launch. Vision believes the technology will improve communication quality while also contributing to better cost efficiency through optimized allocation of communication resources and greater scalability through operational automation. The contents of the release concern a service still under development and may change in the future. Global WiFi® is an overseas Wi-Fi router rental service starting from 300 yen per day and available in more than 200 countries and regions worldwide. Applications can be made via the website, airport counters, or phone. Devices can be picked up and returned at airports, facilities, by delivery, convenience stores for pickup only, and overseas offices. The service is provided by Vision Inc. Vision Inc. operates under the management philosophy of contributing to the revolution of the information and communications industry. In line with its corporate slogan, “More vision, More success,” the company provides services primarily in the information and communications field. Vision is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market under securities code 9416, and its businesses include Global WiFi, information and communications services, glamping and tourism, and other operations.
