Product Manager

<About alt>
Our company is engaged in research and development to realize a world in which every person in the world has his or her own P.A.I. (Personal Artificial Intelligence), free from labor (Lavoro) and immersed in creative and artistic endeavors (Opera).

P.A.I. (Personal Artificial Intelligence) is an AI that aims to digitize our own will and place it in the cloud to let its clone perform all digital tasks.

Digital clones, who can even make personal decisions and intentions, will travel around the networked world 24/7, replacing tasks that they do not have to perform themselves, such as work, shopping, and travel arrangements, allowing humans to focus on what only humans can do.

<Our Business>
Focusing on "AI GIJIROKU (AI Minutes)," an automatic meeting transcription tool that is currently being introduced to more than 6,000 companies, utilizing a group of advanced AI elemental technologies developed through P.A.I. research, developing AI solutions that can be used for any business, such as "AI Call Center" that enables 24/7 unattended response, "Neo RMR" chat operator AI support system, and "AI Interpreter" that enables multilingual communication in online meetings. Eventually, we have grown to the top market share in Japan within about two years of our launch.

Increasing the productivity of each and every employee in an organization is now one of the most important issues we need to address. By utilizing AI-related technologies, the research team at OLUTZ has developed "AI GIJIROKU," which converts minutes of meetings into text in real time, whereas in the past, transcription of audio recordings and manual input of handwritten notes were the norm. We at OLUTZ define efficient meetings as "Smart Meetings" and provide concrete solutions not only for visualization of meetings but also for optimal employee work styles, and contribute to solving social issues such as remote work, which is an important issue these days. Thanks to your support, AI GIJIROKU has been used by more than 5,000 companies in a wide range of situations.

"AI Call Center" is a spoken dialogue AI solution that enables "free dialogue with AI" using natural language processing technology that OLTZ has cultivated over many years of research and development to meet the needs of call centers in the new normal era.
