What AVILEN does

AVILEN (株式会社AVILEN, ticker 5591) is a Tokyo-headquartered, Tokyo Stock Exchange Growth Market-listed AI company founded in August 2018. The firm provides end-to-end AI transformation services to Japanese enterprises under a "true integrated model" spanning strategy consulting, custom AI software development, SaaS deployment, and organizational capability building. Approximately 1,000 enterprise clients were served as of February 2026, including Kansai Electric Power, Bell System 24 Holdings, Wayo Gakuen, and a major Japanese financial institution.

The technology foundation comprises nine proprietary AI core modules — Genea (image generation), Instructea (LLM), Findea (anomaly detection), Cognea (special-paper OCR), Autea (automation), Movea (action recognition), Recommea (recommendation), Numerea (numerical analysis), and Estimea (prediction) — covering image, text, audio, structured-data, and multimodal use cases. These modules underpin both bespoke client solutions and packaged SaaS products such as 帳ラク (AI OCR), ChatMee (enterprise ChatGPT), LEAD DYNAMICS (form sales), AI Clean Manager (cleaning supervision), AI Reviewer, and Generative AI Voice Bot. A separate Build-up Package offering includes certification training (E資格, G検定, Generative AI Passport), DX literacy assessment, and AI governance consulting. The DS-Hub community of approximately 298 machine learning researchers (passing a <6% pass-rate screening) serves as both talent pipeline and delivery resource.

AVILEN earns revenue through a mix of professional services for AI solutions, recurring SaaS subscriptions, training program fees (e.g., Generative AI Passport at ¥19,800/participant with organizational tiers), and — beginning April 2026 — implementation-type BPO services via the BA Intelligence joint venture with Bell System 24 (AVILEN 49%, Bell System 24 51%, ¥150M capital). FY2025 (December 2025) revenue reached ¥1,672M (+34.7% YoY) with ¥274M operating profit (16.4% margin), 27.3% ROE, and 52.6% equity ratio. Growth has compounded at approximately 23% CAGR over five years from FY2022, supported by inorganic moves including the LangCore acquisition and the BA Intelligence JV, alongside aggressive SaaS and training product launches through Q2 2026.
