Algomatic

Algomatic is a startup studio focused on developing and providing services that leverage generative AI technologies. The company operates with a multi-product, startup studio model, simultaneously launching multiple businesses across various domains to discover market-leading applications. Algomatic was established in April 2023 by Shunsuke Ono as a group company of DMM.com, securing an initial investment of 2 billion JPY.

Founder Shunsuke Ono, a graduate of the University of Tokyo's Faculty of Engineering, has a deep background in AI, having worked on deep learning research projects and later at Indeed on new business development and machine learning infrastructure. He previously founded Algoage Inc. in 2018, a company specializing in machine learning and deep learning solutions, which was acquired by the DMM group in 2020. The emergence of ChatGPT in late 2022 inspired Ono to establish Algomatic to create entirely new businesses native to the generative AI era, leading him to step down from his role at Algoage and launch this new venture.

The company functions with a company system, where each business unit operates with significant autonomy, like an independent company with its own P&L, team, and decision-making authority. This structure is designed to facilitate rapid and parallel business creation. Algomatic's portfolio includes AI agents for sales and recruitment such as "Apodori" and the "Recluita AI" series, the "DMM GAME Translation" service, and the "Algomatic AI Transformation (AX)" which provides AI consulting and custom development for enterprises. Their business model involves both providing SaaS solutions and offering consulting services to support corporate AI adoption and transformation.
