SolvifAI helps boost IT and digital transformation (DX) projects. The round was led by JAFCO Group Co., Ltd., with additional investment from Samurai Incubate Inc. through a third-party allotment of new shares.
Addressing the Challenges of DX in Japan
Digital transformation is a top priority for boosting corporate value in Japan. So, companies are using AI technologies more than ever. Critical upstream processes, like planning and defining requirements, rely a lot on individual expertise. This dependence makes it hard to achieve consistent project success.
This gap is concerning, especially with the 2025 Corporate IT Trends Survey Report from JUAS. The report shows that, in the last ten years, achievement rates for quality, budget, and schedule in system development have stayed between 10% and 30%. A key factor is the growing complexity of the business environment. This makes defining requirements harder and increases the impact of system design choices.
