Are you confident in your intuition?

Years of cultivated experience and intuitive power are certainly your strengths. But don't you sometimes hesitate at crucial decision moments, wondering "Is this really the right choice?"

What if you could back up that excellent "intuition" with scientific evidence and use AI and IT power to analyze "what to do and how to do it" to increase results by more than 10 times?

Expert in Revealing Hidden Matching Patterns

I have uncovered 'invisible matching' across numerous industries including entertainment, human resources, investment, and matchmaking. At a major entertainment company, I solved the hiring manager's dilemma of 'can't decide based on academic credentials alone' by quantifying intuition through personality analysis, achieving over 100 million yen in annual cost savings.

For a popular idol group, I answered management's question 'we understand through experience, but what should we do next?' by building apps and proving with data, creating previously unnoticed discoveries and sustainable PDCA cycles.

Key Achievements

Fan engagement analysis
Fan Engagement Analysis for Famous Idol Group

Built fan sites for a famous idol group and analyzed users. Extracted 'what users want' and 'what dissatisfactions they have' from speech and behavior that had previously been managed through 'intuition' and 'experience.' Successfully achieved continuous fan engagement improvement by operating points as a 'second currency' through a point system.

AI career matching
AI-based Career Aptitude Diagnosis and Matching

Used AI to diagnose university students' personalities and aptitudes, analyzed their personalities to determine suitable and unsuitable careers. Built a system that recommends personalized job openings and companies matching each individual's aptitude.

Point system
Consumer Behavior Analysis and Global Point System Construction

Developed a system to convert points under 2000 yen that 63% of Japanese people have surplus into investments. With user permission, analyzed users' purchase trends to understand their personalities and recommended more attractive consumption behaviors and investment thinking and styles.

Matching algorithm
Algorithm Construction to Solve Matching Imbalance in Serious Dating Sites

In serious marriage-oriented dating support systems where only specific individuals match while many others don't, built a rule-based recommendation system that suggests unexpected candidates with 'high compatibility potential despite not meeting stated preferences' based on user demand and trends.

High school career guidance
Career Guidance and Educational Path Recommendation System for High School Students

For high school students who don't clearly understand what 'jobs' exist, analyzed the most suitable careers through personality-based diagnostic tests, then recommended university/vocational school courses and departments based on results, building a high-response document request system.

Used car recommendation
System Recommending Optimal Used Cars from Vague Requirements

Built a system that narrows down car models and manufacturers from vague cost expectations and usage scenarios, presenting optimal used cars from databases to help users more easily find their desired vehicles.

Religious community matching
Serious Dating Matching System Based on Rules and AI from Narrative Text

For an international religious organization with strict precepts, built a dating system that matches optimal believers through machine learning and rule-based analysis of narrative religious views and happiness concepts, rather than simple YES/NO or 5-point scales.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from our clients

Consultation & Consulting
If I have a consultation, am I obligated to hire you for ongoing work?
Consultation is completely free of charge. We also do not engage in aggressive sales afterward.
I live outside Japan or outside the Kanto region. Can you still help?
Of course we can. We work online via Zoom with clients in the US, Vietnam, and other foreign countries.
Can you explain AI and matching to our department or management?
We would be happy to provide free guidance. Online meetings via Zoom are free, but if we need to visit outside the Kanto region, we would ask you to cover travel expenses.
Development & Design
We already have a development company, but can we request just the design?
Of course, we're happy to do just design or research for system building. If you don't have a development company, we can handle everything from requirements gathering to development.
Our development team only understands English. Can you accommodate that?
No problem. We have extensive experience with English-language system development.
Cost & Pricing
Does system and app development require significant costs?
Of course, building IT systems requires substantial investment. However, I can first listen through consulting and help reduce costs by directing designated development companies through offshore or nearshore arrangements. Also, 'lab-type development' with fixed monthly payments allows for continuous development while preventing large initial cost spikes.
How do you charge for consulting and technical advice?
Consulting can be handled on a spot basis, charged by time. For technical consultation or analysis of whether other companies' current development is appropriate, we provide separate quotes. Monthly fixed consulting contracts are also possible. If this results in system development, consulting fees will be deducted from development costs.
Isn't consulting expensive?
Consulting involves Sugihara working personally and designing according to your needs, so it may not be cheap. However, we certainly strive to keep costs down according to your budget and requirements. Depending on the case, we can also discuss jointly building services or revenue sharing arrangements to ultimately reduce costs.
Analysis & Results
Can you really find rules and patterns for success?
I cannot say 'absolutely guaranteed.' Because various factors intertwine, 'hypotheses' don't always work correctly. However, by continuously analyzing 'what the problems are' and 'what doesn't have impact,' previously unnoticed rules and hidden tips become clear, enabling logical approaches rather than 'random advertising' or 'just working harder.'
Won't our analyzed know-how be reused elsewhere or sold to competitors?
At the start of development or analysis, we process contracts so that your company's know-how, case studies, and copyrighted materials retain no rights with us. When introducing cases on sites like this, we always confirm with your company beforehand whether introduction is acceptable.
Speaking & Academic
Can you speak on academic topics related to systems and HR?
Yes, I receive such requests and lecture at various universities. For more deeply specialized content, I can also approach domestic and international researchers, including those at the University of Tokyo, through my personal network.
What theories and academic background do you use for analysis and design?
Of course I use the expertise I've cultivated, but I also leverage academic networks with universities, collaborating with specialists in psychology, statistics, and information analysis for problem-solving. Particularly in AI, we have AI and machine learning experts whose papers have been accepted at the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, which is notoriously difficult to get accepted to internationally.

Let's work together to solve your challenges!

Consultation is (of course) free.
