Shanon and System Renovate Sign Sales Partnership to Support AI-Driven Sales Promotion via 'kintone × Shakin'

Shanon Inc. (Representative Director, CEO: Hirofumi Yamazaki, Securities Code: 3976, hereinafter "Shanon") announces that it has entered into a partnership agreement with System Renovate Co., Ltd. (Representative Director, President: Hiroshi Sata, hereinafter "System Renovate").

Through this collaboration, the two companies will begin offering comprehensive solutions nationwide to mid-sized and small enterprises struggling with talent shortages and limited investment budgets. The solutions combine System Renovate's advanced system-building expertise and proven customer support track record with kintone, and Shanon's AI-powered, all-in-one sales and marketing tool "Shakin," which integrates with kintone.

Background of the Partnership: Overcoming the "Barriers to AI Adoption" Faced by Mid-Sized and Small Enterprises

While enthusiasm for AI adoption is growing across many companies, numerous organizations remain hesitant to implement AI at scale due to resistance to changing established workflows and uncertainty about return on investment (ROI).

Particularly for mid-sized and small enterprises facing severe talent shortages, the need for AI adoption is recognized, yet these companies are caught between this need and the urgent requirement to maintain revenue and profitability—more so than larger enterprises. As a result, ongoing investment and promotion of AI use remain slow.

To address these challenges, the two companies have joined forces to propose a new business foundation that delivers tangible results (revenue growth and efficiency gains) easily and at low cost.

Benefits of the 'kintone' × 'Shakin' Integration

Under this partnership, System Renovate will incorporate Shanon's "Shakin" into its comprehensive solution offerings as part of its kintone-centered ecosystem.

Strengths of "Shakin": An all-in-one sales and marketing tool that enables anyone, regardless of expertise, to easily conduct sales and promotional activities using no-code and AI assistance—at an exceptionally low monthly fee of just 30,000 yen.

Strengths of the business improvement platform "kintone": A no-code application development platform provided by Cybozu Inc. that enables systematization and efficiency improvements for business operations. With the planned launch of "kintone AI" in June 2026, kintone will evolve into a platform capable of not just improving but strengthening business operations.

The seamless integration of these two systems enables mid-sized and small enterprises to rapidly build a business foundation that is both affordable and easy to use, supporting end-to-end capabilities—from generating sales opportunities to increasing revenue and improving internal operational efficiency.

Future Outlook: Aggressively Promoting AI Adoption Across Major Regions in Japan

With System Renovate's advanced technical capabilities—including in-house plugin development for kintone—and extensive support experience, the company will provide comprehensive hands-on support to lower the psychological and financial barriers to AI adoption, ensuring tangible business improvements.

Going forward, the partnership will target enterprises nationwide, with operations based in Tokyo, Osaka, Fukuoka, Sapporo, and Naha, strongly supporting the sustainable growth of mid-sized and small enterprises.
