Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Kabushiki Gaisha Dekirukun (dekirukun Inc.), formerly Utill Inc., is a Tokyo-based company that positions AI at the core of its business and targets what it describes as structural problems in Japan's IT and web contracting industry. It operates two lines: an "AI BPO" business that uses AI to update website production and operations support, and an "AI Workforce" business that automates web production with AI agents. Stated service offerings include low-cost homepage production starting from a few thousand yen per month, Google Maps/local-listing setup and operations for store customer acquisition, hybrid AI-plus-human content editing for owned media and SEO, end-to-end interview-to-article production, and an AI agent for web production advertised as cutting production hours by 70% [0].

Earlier the company ran a platform/BPaaS business supporting digital transformation for small and medium-sized enterprises, centered on the "Web Kanji" (Web幹事) series of consultation desks matching companies with website, video and system development vendors; that business was transferred to W4Partners in 2025 as the company concentrated on AI BPO [2]. Third-party profiles describe the product portfolio as the Dekiru-kun series of AI-driven BPO services alongside the Kanji series of digital consultation services, serving SMEs across Japan, with revenue generated through subscription-based service packages and direct SME relationships [5][7].

The company was founded in April 2015 by Shin Iwata and is headquartered in Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo (TOC Building, Nishi-Gotanda), having previously been listed at an address in Shinjuku [0][2][3][4][5]. Wantedly lists 30 members [4]. It is classified as a Series B-stage private company in the internet/software sector [2][5].
