Transforming Tacit Business Judgment into an AI-Transferable Format: Launch of "AI Implementation Support Service" for Mid-Sized Companies

Likebird Inc. (Head Office: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Shinpei Kataoka; hereinafter "Likebird"), a consulting firm specializing in legacy systems that handles the handover, operation, maintenance, and system development audits of core systems that have become person-dependent and black-boxed, will begin offering its "AI Implementation Support Service" on July 9, 2026. This service aims to visualize business processes and guide companies to a state where they can manage judgment and execution internally. The service is being officially released after pilot implementations and effectiveness confirmation with several companies.

Many mid-sized companies face the risk of business disruption when a single employee handles multiple tasks, and that employee retires or transfers. Simply introducing AI tools without organizing judgment criteria and business flows often fails to take root in the workplace, and in many cases, person-dependency becomes entrenched. Through extensive AI implementation support for various companies, Likebird has realized that this challenge is common across industries and is offering this service to support "visualization of business processes" and "verbalization of judgment criteria," which are necessary before AI implementation.

Service Overview and Features

We provide end-to-end support for three months, from understanding and organizing manual tasks related to core operations, to creating business design documents, implementing a simple AI tool (one unit) that can be used in the field, and transferring it to in-house operation.

Understanding Based on Field Experience: We organize issues from the organizational perspective with over 20 years of experience in development/maintenance and PM/PMO support.

Accompanying from Business Organization to Tool Adoption: Prevents "not fitting the field" due to division of labor.

"Self-Sufficient State" as the Goal: Aims for a state where companies can operate, judge, and improve independently even after support ends.
