We build the systems that delete your busywork.

For 5+ years, our own engineering team has planned, built and operated healthcare services — for cancer patients and their families, for nurses.
We bring that same in-house engineering to your automation and AI projects, end-to-end from requirements through ongoing support.

Why teams work with us

5+ years running our own products

We don't disappear after launch. We bring the same operational discipline we use running our own healthcare services — a domain where reliability, privacy and regulatory care are non-negotiable — to every engagement.

Enterprise-grade delivery record

The quality standards we built serving large enterprises apply just as rigorously to small and mid-sized projects.

Deliberately small and senior

The person you talk to is the same person who designs, builds and operates your system. Nothing gets lost in translation.

Services and pricing guide

Final quotes are provided after we understand your requirements. Figures below are a guide.

Automation & workflow builds

Turn manual data handoffs, notifications and repetitive tasks into workflows. We pick the right tool for the job — n8n, Zapier and others — and connect them to what you already use.

from $700

Full automation design

We map processes spanning multiple teams and tools, then design and build the automation end to end.

from $2,000

AI agents & AI feature development

We design and build AI agents that own a full slice of work — internal document Q&A (RAG), support chatbots, intake-triage-draft-escalate pipelines. Built on the same architecture as Hermes Agent and OpenClaw, the autonomous agent platforms we run ourselves in production.

from $2,000

Notion / Airtable & internal tools

Project trackers, knowledge bases and dashboards built with Notion, Airtable and similar tools, designed around how your team actually works.

from $1,000

Web scraping and data collection

Scheduled collection, cleaning and storage of public data, including a legal and terms-of-service check.

from $700

Web development (LP / site / internal app)

From landing pages to internal business applications, designed and built around your requirements.

from $2,000

Ongoing support

Continued operation, fixes and small changes after launch.

Frequently asked questions

How is pricing determined?
Pricing is quoted individually based on scope, complexity and timeline. Start with a free consultation, and we'll send a fixed quote once requirements are clear.
What tools do you build with?
We choose tools to fit your environment and requirements. Our team has in-house experience across automation platforms (including n8n), cloud infrastructure and AI, and we pick the right tool for the job while avoiding vendor lock-in.
Can I hire you for maintenance only?
Yes. We take on maintenance, handover and fixes for systems originally built by other teams. Tell us about your current setup and we'll take it from there.
Can we sign an NDA?
Yes, we proceed under a signed non-disclosure agreement. Everything you share with us is handled under strict confidentiality.
Do you work with overseas clients, in English?
Yes. We handle requirements gathering, delivery and ongoing support fully in English for clients outside Japan.
Do you use AI?
A human engineer leads and takes responsibility for every project. We use AI selectively where it makes the work faster. All design decisions, quality judgments and final deliverables are human-owned.
