The "B4A Summer Summit 2026 TOKYO," hosted by B4A Inc. (CEO: Shotaro Uematsu), the developer and seller of the DX tool "B4A" specialized for self-pay clinics, was held on July 7, 2026 (Tue) at JP Tower Hall & Conference.
At this event, B4A also announced the full details of its new project, "B4A-Intelligence" (commonly known as "B4A-I").
"B4A-Intelligence" (commonly known as "B4A-I") is B4A's new project aiming to release 30 AI-related features annually.
This project aims to "AI-enable all operations" in clinic management, with plans to develop AI features in a wide range of areas, including communication support, marketing automation, and management analysis reports. At the event, the first set of features was announced, and a demonstration of products planned for future rollout was presented.
First Feature: B4A-I Voice "AI Voice Input & Auto Summarization"
This feature automatically transcribes counseling sessions and uses AI to automatically summarize them into the SOAP format, which is standard in medical practice. It can be saved directly to B4A's electronic health records with a single click, eliminating manual tasks like copy-pasting and significantly reducing the burden of chart input, which is a major challenge for clinic operations.
Future Roadmap & Planned Areas of Expansion
In addition to the voice charting feature being offered first, the "B4A-I" project plans to sequentially develop and expand AI utilization features in the following areas:
- B4A-I Message (Communication Area): AI features to support the efficiency of customer support and LINE reply operations.
- B4A-I Marketing (Marketing Area): AI features to support marketing tasks such as creating distribution plans and generating messages and images.
- B4A-I Report (Management Analysis Area): AI features to aggregate and summarize daily data, supporting the consideration of next steps.
