Seeds Global Connect

What Seeds Global Connect does

Seeds Global Connect (株式会社シーズグローバルコネクト) is a Fukuoka-headquartered Japanese systems development firm incorporated on January 22, 2020, with ¥16,600,000 in paid-in capital. The company designs, develops, and operates custom business systems (SFA, CRM, PRM) using a full-scratch development model, with all engineers capable of in-house delivery supplemented by AI coding tools. It sells into a horizontal mix of Japanese SMEs and listed enterprises, with case-study evidence spanning energy services (Shin Nihon Energy Systems), certification/testing (Japan Load Testing Association), and multi-location services (Best Effort).

The company operates two proprietary AI SaaS products — AGENTO, a B2B sales efficiency service launched January 2023 with a trademark registration completed October 2023 (Reg. No. 6741827, Class 35), and TELERS, an AI-powered 24/7/365 phone auto-attendant using speech recognition and synthesis. AI capabilities extend across text (ChatGPT, NLP), audio (speech), and image recognition modalities. A complementary BI tool / data visualization offering is bundled with system replacement projects.

Revenue mechanics combine project-based professional services (custom system development), recurring SaaS subscriptions (AGENTO, TELERS), and — as of April 2026 — an AI Co-Creation Program with two engagement models (Development Partner ownership transfer and Results-Linked revenue share). Distribution is direct/consultation-led with website-driven inbound and partner recruitment, all within Japan. Corporate ownership changed materially in 2026: Oushin Kaihatsu was absorbed via merger on January 1, 2026, and Lifecreate Co., Ltd. acquired a 51% group-partner stake on March 16, 2026. The firm holds a Japanese Telecommunications Business Operator registration (H-05-01885).
