Problem
Japanese anime IP faces growing global demand, but the industry is constrained by bottlenecks including dispersed context and knowledge across individuals' memories, emails, and files. This fragmentation leads to repeated approvals, inconsistent decisions, and misalignment, while unauthorized use and piracy—accelerated by generative AI—threaten the value of IP built by creators.
Solution
AI Mage develops "Anime General Intelligence" (AGI), an AI engine specialized in understanding anime settings, storylines, character actions, and the worldviews and rules governing secondary use. AGI converts scattered data—including original works, production materials, style guides, and past approval decisions—into a searchable knowledge base accessible via natural language. The company offers both a chat-based assistant for quick reference lookups and business consultations, and workflow-specific DX SaaS products that embed AGI into licensing and approval workflows to standardize quality and improve efficiency. AGI also combines internal proprietary data with external market insights from social media and secondary distribution platforms to support licensing and marketing planning.
Target Audience
Primary customers are anime IP holders, production companies, licensors, licensees, and other stakeholders in the Japanese anime industry who need to manage licensing approvals, rights compliance, and global IP expansion.
