DIMENSION, Inc. (headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, President and CEO: Takamitsu Miyaso; hereinafter, DIMENSION) announces its investment in ALGO ARTIS Corporation (headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, President and CEO: Kentaro Nagata; hereafter, ALGO ARTIS), a provider of automated optimization solutions for operational plans through AI algorithms.

Based on its corporate mission of “optimizing social infrastructure,” ALGO ARTIS is a startup company that develops and provides “Optium,” a planning optimization solution that specializes in extremely complex operational plans such as production and shipping.

“Optium” uses a unique AI algorithm to achieve annual revenue improvement ranging from tens of millions to hundreds of millions of yen, reduce GHG emissions and eliminate dependence on personalized skills by automatically optimizing analog operational plans that have traditionally relied on skilled technicians.

The AI solution developed by ALGO ARTIS, which automatically optimizes complex processes/operational plans, has already been fully implemented by multiple major corporations. DIMENSION has decided to invest in ALGO ARTIS because we see great potential in their mission to improve productivity across society through the implementation of truly user-friendly AI.

Through this investment, DIMENSION will support ALGO ARTIS’s mission of “optimizing social infrastructure”. Furthermore, we will continue to advance our investment and support for entrepreneurs who are dedicated and sincere in their management efforts.
