Company profile
researched Aug 2026Raccoon AI, operated under James Technology Consulting Group (JTCG), develops Agentic AI (AaaS) conversational software for enterprises. Its platform lets companies connect existing data sources and stand up AI agents without coding: users upload documents, spreadsheets or URLs to build a knowledge base, define a brand tone applied across 10+ languages, set human-handoff rules, and connect messaging channels. The company states deployment typically takes about 14 days, and that a first agent can go live within minutes via a "Text to Agent" setup flow.
The product portfolio is organized into three lines. Raccoon AI Service is a multi-channel AI customer service platform covering pre-sales and post-sales support, consolidating FAQ, product and service assets into automated reply flows across LINE, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and websites, with e-commerce integrations (SHOPLINE, Shopify, 91APP) for stock, order and product-recommendation queries, CRM write-back and conversation tagging, and an analytics layer covering resolution rates, handoff ratios, satisfaction, response speed and top questions. Raccoon AI GEO converts recurring first-party customer questions, product comparisons and concerns into articles intended to be cited by AI search engines. Raccoon AI Crew builds internal "AI employees" for functions such as internal Q&A, SOP lookup, data organization, task guidance and cross-department collaboration, including deployment through LINE WORKS.
The company positions itself as complementary to incumbent service stacks rather than a replacement, integrating with platforms such as Zendesk and Salesforce, and pairs software with a consulting team for knowledge base setup, workflow optimization and localized implementation.
Founding story
James Chou founded the student timetable platform Colorgy while at university, growing it to nearly 2 million registered users, then joined French startup Zenly (later acquired by Snap) where he led the Taiwan and South Korea markets, scaling monthly active users from 50,000 to 1.2 million in a year, and subsequently led Snapchat's Asian market expansion in Taiwan, South Korea, Japan and China. He also took part in LINE's post-acquisition integration of Choco TV. He is an alumnus of AppWorks Accelerator Batch 13. In 2018 he founded James Technology Consulting Group and became an official strategic Zendesk partner in Taiwan, launching Raccoon AI's in-house AI Agent solution in 2023.
Business model
