“Knowledge Collector”, which uses AI to support corporate knowledge utilization issues, will be officially released on November 1st

Easily record audio, image, and video data “on the spot” to reduce the burden of text input
Equipped with a no-code report builder feature that allows you to easily customize report templates

On November 1, 2023, we launched the AI product “Knowledge Collector,” which allows companies to easily collect corporate knowledge (know-how and experience) that is accumulated on a daily basis in various data formats such as audio, images, and videos. It will be officially released from today.

"Knowledge Collector" is a knowledge collection tool that combines AI technologies such as AI voice recognition and AI-OCR. Methods of accumulating and reporting knowledge vary depending on job type, department, and team, but "Knowledge Collector" can input text using voice recognition, automatically extract text using AI-OCR from photographic images such as handwritten and typed text, and use videos as evidence. In addition to supporting a wide range of input methods such as free text, it also has a no-code report builder function that allows you to freely customize report templates, so it can be implemented in each department throughout the company.

In particular, recording voice on a smartphone "on the spot" not only reduces the input burden compared to normal text input, but also improves the quantity and quality of information that can be used as knowledge. By converting the data accumulated by Knowledge Collector into structured data using AI, it can be used as new value that will give companies a competitive advantage, such as planning new services, passing on know-how, and improving planning. (Creation and utilization of structured data will be handled by individual development)

Since the beta version of Knowledge Collector was released for free in July of this year, it has achieved many improvements, including excellent speech recognition accuracy in noisy environments and speedy and detailed sharing of knowledge between departments using images and videos. Its usefulness has been evaluated by companies. We are now officially releasing an improved version that reflects feedback from corporate users who have actually used the beta version. In the future, by utilizing large-scale language models, we aim to improve the efficiency of information organization and implement original suggestion functions.

■Development background: Utilize AI to minimize the burden of knowledge collection and maximize its utilization
The knowledge accumulated by Japanese companies, many of which have been around for 100 years, is vast. On the other hand, many companies have an urgent need to efficiently pass on and utilize knowledge due to factors such as aging workers, declining population, and delays in introducing DX. In addition, in a variety of occupations, skills and know-how are dependent on the individual, and there is a current situation where valuable knowledge cannot be absorbed. Another barrier to knowledge collection for companies is that the act of "writing and reporting" itself, whether by handwriting or using a keyboard, is a burden on the person in charge, and because of this, there are cases in which knowledge cannot be collected effectively. there is.

In order to solve these issues, we have developed "Knowledge Collector", which allows you to easily input information using various methods. "Knowledge Collector" reduces the input burden on staff, and the ability to input voice input on the spot is expected to improve the quantity and quality of information. In addition, it eliminates paper records that are often found in labor-intensive industries, leading to paperless and digitalization.
*“Knowledge Collector” began offering a beta version in July of this year, and has now been officially released.
