Tofu Co., Ltd. and Seven Sense Tax Accountant Corporation officially announce the conclusion of a strategic partnership in the field of AI-powered automated bookkeeping. Tofu Co., Ltd. will begin full-scale deployment of its AI-powered automated bookkeeping service “tofu” in the Japanese market from July 2026.<\/p>\n

tofu is a service that uses AI to automatically read documents such as receipts, invoices, and bank statements, and instantly output them to accounting software for journal entry integration, thereby reducing corporate bookkeeping work by up to 70% (based on a 2025 time study survey of companies that have implemented tofu<\/a>. Target: accounting firms in Malaysia, Singapore, etc.). Its global track record, already adopted by 7 of the world’s top accounting networks and implemented in over 50 countries, more than 250 accounting firms, and over 2,500 end clients, underscores its reliability.<\/p>\n

tofu is a service originating in Japan, developed by a team of engineers based in Tokyo. From its inception, it has focused on the global market, leveraging its strengths in multilingual and handwriting-compatible AI recognition technology to launch its services overseas. Now, this globally honed technology is finally being brought to the Japanese market.<\/p>\n

\u3053\u3061\u3089\u3082\u304a\u8aad\u307f\u304f\u3060\u3055\u3044\uff1a \u30de\u30a4\u30af\u30ed\u30bd\u30d5\u30c8\u3001\u65e5\u672c\u306eAI\u5909\u9769\u3092\u52a0\u901f\u3059\u308b\u305f\u3081\u306b$100\u5104\u5186\u3092\u62e0\u51fa<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n

To enter the Japanese market, we have formed a partnership with Seven Sense Tax Accountant Corporation<\/a>, which is ranked 31st nationwide in the ranking of tax accountant firms leading the industry in promoting AI and DX (Weekly Toyo Keizai). Through this partnership, we have developed functions and specifications that fully comply with Japanese accounting standards and tax practices, and have optimized the service for the Japanese market. We will promote the automation of bookkeeping operations for domestic companies, accounting firms, and tax accountant offices through the provision of our AI automated bookkeeping platform service, “tofu”.<\/p>\n

Why the Japanese market now?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In the Japanese accounting industry, while cloud-based accounting software such as freee, Money Forward, and Yayoi Accounting are becoming increasingly popular, much of the work that precedes inputting data into the accounting software\u2014namely, reading receipts and invoices and creating journal entries\u2014is still done manually.<\/p>\n

Existing OCR tools have been insufficient in handling complex Japanese form layouts and handwritten documents, leaving the problem that “the reading accuracy is low, and it’s ultimately faster to correct it by hand.”<\/p>\n

tofu is an AI tool that automates data entry tasks that occur *before* accounting software is used. It’s not meant to replace accounting software, but rather to dramatically improve the speed and accuracy of the entire bookkeeping process when used in conjunction with software like freee or Money Forward.<\/p>\n
