About AISing

AISing is an AI startup founded in 2016.

The unique AI algorithm series "AiiR™", developed and provided by AISing, is capable of learning as well as inference, even among edge AI that performs prediction on terminal devices. It has won numerous startup awards for achieving learning on the edge and sequential learning that does not require adjustment, which was impossible with existing AI algorithms such as deep learning.

We have been selected as one of the 92 candidates for Japan's unicorn companies (unlisted companies with a market capitalization of over 100 billion yen) in the J-Startup program by the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry.
In terms of business phases, we have successfully raised approximately 1.2 billion yen in funding to date and are expanding our business through the development of AI solutions in collaboration with major companies, particularly in the manufacturing and infrastructure-energy sectors.

With a multifaceted strength in AI development, knowledge of machinery, and expertise in embedded systems, AISing brings significant transformation to customer's business as a specialist in edge AI.
