What Current Space does

株式会社カレントスペース (Current Space) is a privately held Japanese B2B services company founded on April 5, 2016, headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, with regional branches in Sapporo, Nagoya, and Osaka. The company operates four integrated service divisions: (1) residential equipment after-maintenance, product handling instruction, inspection, call-center, and installation services for major housing equipment manufacturers; (2) CAD design, architectural rendering (3D perspectives), VR model data production, and personnel staffing supported by a pool of 100+ in-house architects and overseas/SOHO partners; (3) system engineering (Java web development, SAP R/3 operation and maintenance) and field engineering (semiconductor and LCD equipment maintenance); and (4) hardware product sales, notably the proprietary Flush Man RECOVERY retrofit unit that addresses discontinued TOTO TEA95/TEA96 wall-embedded urinal sensors without wall demolition. The company holds an Osaka Prefectural First-Class Architect Office registration (No. 26078), a regulated credential permitting legal assumption of design responsibility for larger buildings.

Current Space serves a concentrated enterprise customer base led by the TOTO group (multiple regional sales subsidiaries and TOTO EMTech), LIXIL (including LIXIL Zen-Tei Service), Panasonic ES Technos Logistics, and major homebuilders (Daiwa House, Sekisui Chemical, Sumitomo Forestry, Toyota Home, Mitsubishi Estate). Its primary go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting housing equipment manufacturers and large general contractors, with nationwide coverage across Kanto, Chubu, Kansai, Hokkaido, Tohoku, Hokuriku/Koshinetsu, and Kyushu/Okinawa. The business model is a mix of project-based professional services (CAD, architectural visualization, engineering, and worker dispatch at an average 16,800 JPY/day billing rate with a 25.6% margin) and hardware sales (Flush Man RECOVERY units from approximately 62,000 JPY plus installation labor). Three-tier maintenance plans (Basic, Standard, Premium) are offered with 365-day service availability. There are no public APIs, no software products, no disclosed AI capabilities, and no external funding rounds; the company is self-funded with 99 million JPY in stated capital and operates without a parent company or subsidiaries.
