AtPeak Inc., a provider of AI solutions for business use, and Teradata Corporation’s Japanese subsidiary, Teradata Japan Co., Ltd. announced that they have agreed to a strategic partnership to jointly provide AI solutions that accelerate the realization of AI-driven management for Japanese companies. In the future, the two companies will not only continue to expand and collaborate on technology, but also collaborate on marketing.
As the first step of this partnership, AtPeak has started offering a solution that closely integrates its proprietary AI platform “AP-AI” with Teradata’s hybrid cloud AI data platform “Teradata Vantage” as part of the “Teradata Vantage AI Offering.” “AP-AI” realizes data structuring and real-time analysis through dynamic preprocessing, and parallel execution of multiple AI models through task decomposition. By combining this with the high-performance massively parallel processing technology of “Teradata Vantage,” it realizes high-speed data semantic understanding and refinement processing that is adapted to business use. This enables companies to obtain meaningful analytical results and inferences from complex data sets in real time, enabling them to respond quickly and precisely to complex business challenges.
Japanese companies face several important challenges in achieving AI-driven management. One of the most serious challenges is the lack of Japanese-language AI applications with practical accuracy. Many companies are looking for highly accurate AI solutions that can adapt to Japanese business processes and handle the complexity of the Japanese language and the difficulty of understanding context. In addition, the recent promotion of cloud utilization has led to data silos, making data sharing and integration between departments increasingly difficult. As a result, valuable data existing within companies cannot be integrated and effectively combined with AI, making it difficult to achieve AI-driven decision-making and business optimization. If these challenges cannot be addressed, there is a risk that the global competitiveness of Japanese companies will be significantly impaired.

The purpose of this alliance is to provide comprehensive solutions to these complex issues and strongly support the digital transformation (DX) and AI-driven management of Japanese companies. Both companies will provide innovative solutions that utilize the latest, high-performance AI, including AI agents, and data analysis. By combining the strengths of both companies, we will optimize corporate decision-making processes and help foster an AI-driven organizational culture.
The main benefits for Japanese companies when adopting Teradata Vantage AI Offering are as follows:
AI application suitable for Japanese management:
As mentioned above, the AI applications run on “AP-AI” and the high-performance AI data infrastructure of “Teradata Vantage” will make it possible to operate AI systems on a large scale that are suited to Japan’s unique decision-making processes.
Can be deployed in cloud or on-premise environments:
This solution can be built not only on Amazon Web Services, Azure, and Google Cloud, but also on-premise environments, making it possible to build a system that can handle highly confidential data that is difficult to move to the cloud and that meets Japan’s strict security requirements.
Enabling data integration and real-time analytics:
We provide consulting services such as data management and data architecture to integrate and utilize data. We also support the complex data structures that are unique to Japanese companies, and the high cost performance of “Teradata Vantage” enables high-speed processing of large amounts of data at low cost. In addition, data that is constantly being generated can be uploaded to “Teradata Vantage”, and AI applications can be run based on the latest data to achieve real-time decision-making.
Available AI applications:
We provide a variety of AI applications that are suitable for business use in Japan. The main examples of our services are as follows. We plan to continue providing innovative solutions to accommodate use cases in a variety of industries.
Digital Marketing Applications
AtPeak’s geospatial data, location, purchase, and other third-party data are used to create a realistic customer profile, and AI is used to perform rapid time-series analysis of customer behavior and needs, as well as anonymous user attribute analysis to propose sophisticated marketing strategies in real time. In addition, companies can predict the ROI of their marketing activities in advance, enabling them to make quick decisions and verify feedback on their implementation.
Digital Simulation Applications
Mainly for the manufacturing industry, we utilize AI-based data conversion technology and digital twin technology to achieve efficient simulation and process optimization. For example, in 2D CAD for plants, we can perform a rough estimate quickly (about 5 seconds) that minimizes the difference (3%) from a detailed estimate, and eliminates manual parameter setting work, making it possible to automate important processes in the manufacturing of large parts.
Unmanned call center application
AtPeak’s unique AI model achieves high speech recognition (WER 5% or less) and response speed (less than 1 second), and the AI can accurately understand the context of ambiguous and unique Japanese expressions and respond to them, instantly responding to customer inquiries and managing the link with other systems and the human approval process, aiming for a completely unmanned system. In addition, it is also possible to generate answers to inquiries about products and contract contents, taking into account differences in terms of use depending on the time of contract.
AtPeak CEO Kim Dae-Jung commented on the collaboration: “This strategic partnership with Teradata will create a framework for linking our AP-AI with Teradata Vantage, a high-performance data platform, and we hope that this will help raise awareness of our AI solutions among more Japanese companies.”
Teradata President and CEO Tsuyoshi Osawa said, “For Japanese companies to achieve AI-driven management, they need global-level technology and a deep understanding of the Japanese market. We are confident that our partnership with AtPeak will contribute to strengthening the competitiveness and sustainable growth of Japanese companies. We will also consider expanding this collaborative solution, which provides new value in the use of AI, from Japan to the world.”
Through this strategic partnership, the two companies will provide strong support for Japanese companies in realizing AI-driven management, aiming to introduce 20 AI applications in the first year and 100 AI applications three years later, thereby contributing to the development of the Japanese economy.
