Why we do

「Open a world of opportunities by achieving true language acquisition」. That is our mission. We believe that if people are able to speak directly to others around the world, that they will have a much wider scope of opportunities available to them. Our main product is our 「AI English Conversation Speak Buddy」app, that uses the latest in voice recognition, AI conversation, and digital voice technology to solve the problem, "I cannot speak English well, so it's too embarrassing for me to speak English in front of others" the many Japanese people who want to learn English face. Through our products, we would like to create a world where as many people as possible can experience the joy of overcoming an obstacle they were told was impossible to defeat, where they can be constantly surprised by new discoveries and information, and where they can have moving and meaningful conversations with friends in other countries.

How we do

【An international environment where professional colleagues work as a team】  ・A server side engineer who got his doctorate in computer science in Europe ・An iOS engineer who has an intensive programming background, who previously worked for an infrastructure company ・A top class UI/UX designer from one of the best design agencies in Australia And more! Our members are all talented, hard working professionals from around the globe. 【Communicating in English】 Since we're a pretty global organization, there are tons of chances to communicate with other members in English. We also have all company meetings in English as well. Even if you don't have confidence in your Japanese skills, we offer classes with coaches where you can brush up your abilities. We also have benefits for our members like offering financial support for taking language certification exams, so there are plenty of chances to improve your language skills without the worry or pressure. 【A Great Work Environment】 We believe that work life balance is an essential factor to ensuring our members can perform at their best. Our members only do about 10~20 hours of overtime on average, and the company has a work environment that makes it easy to enjoy both your work and private life. We have systems like remote work and shifting start times that make it easy to adjust the time and place you work to your preferences. We also have many members who are parents or international members, so we understand the situations and struggles they face at work, and we always strive to create a comfortable environment for all the members at our company.
