Loglass Inc., a leading provider of digital transformation (DX) solutions specializing in innovative data management, has announced that kubell Inc. has adopted its cloud-based business management system, Loglass.
Reducing Spreadsheet Dependency in Budget and Performance Management
Kubell Group is committed to enhancing productivity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through DX, guided by its mission to “make work more fun and creative” and its vision of being “a step ahead in work styles for everyone.” Building on the success of “Chatwork”—a business chat service with the largest market share in Japan’s SME sector—kubell has developed a comprehensive Business Process as a Service (BPaaS) framework to drive essential DX across various industries.
In the fiscal year ending December 2024, kubell reported profitability in EBITDA, operating profit, and ordinary profit. As the company pursues continued growth, it is strengthening its management control systems.

While its existing business management tools were capable of aggregating numerical data and conducting variance analyses, they lacked the functionality to fully manage personnel cost allocations and common expenses. As a result, the company continued to rely on spreadsheet software—leading to frequent calculation errors, repeated corrections, and time-consuming confirmation processes. These challenges highlighted the need for a more efficient, systematized approach.
To address this, kubell sought to upgrade its business management system to reduce reliance on individual staff and enhance the speed and precision of its budgeting processes.
Enhancing Accuracy and Agility in Cost Management for Future Growth
To overcome these operational hurdles, kubell adopted both “Loglass Business Management” and “Loglass Personnel Planning.” The decision was driven by three key factors:
- Automated, Real-Time Profitability Analysis: By automating complex allocation calculations, kubell can now achieve real-time insights into profit and loss across business segments, thereby improving the speed and accuracy of management decisions.
- Advanced Workforce Simulation: “Loglass Personnel Planning” enables the simulation of labor cost fluctuations and their impact on business plans, allowing for precise workforce planning and budget control.
- Rapid Development and Future Scalability: The platform’s fast development cycle and potential for expanded functionality support kubell’s vision for scalable growth.
Following implementation, kubell aims to significantly reduce the workload associated with calculating and compiling personnel and cost allocations. The freed-up resources will be redirected toward variance analysis and strategic improvement efforts, ultimately enabling more effective cost management and data-driven decision-making to support the company’s continued expansion.
