Corporate
Profile

[Company Strengths]
Our company’s strength is our capability to appropriately provide technology on an OEM basis to major companies and startups that want to use it. Our founder used to work for a major software company with the job of purchasing technical software. He kept looking for companies capable of providing software technology with responsibility and full support, but there were no satisfactory companies for text extraction in Japan. That is why he established a company that seemed satisfactory to him. Now he has confidence because the company has built up a track record in its history of over 15 years.

[Business Description]
We are a software company established over 15 years ago, and we provide text extraction technology on an OEM basis. We provide software libraries that extract text information from Word, Excel, and PDF files. This technology has been provided to a total of 100 companies on an OEM basis. We started to develop the "Derimo" M2M software framework for robot monitoring and control three years ago. The Derimo Bus Location System is an applied version interlocked with a map to monitor mobile objects. We provide this technology on an OEM basis.

[Representative's Message]
I am usually at the head office in Kyoto, but I work in Tokyo for seven days a month. I go to Tsukuba, visit customers, and work as the chair of a voluntary group. Over the course of a year I visit the Kansai and Kanto regions, Hiroshima, Toyama, Nagano, and Kitakyushu for sales. Japan is the scope of my daily business activities.
