FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions we're asked most often about our services, gathered here before you contact us.

stakCan stak really be used with no installation work?
Yes. Installation is complete simply by swapping it into the light bulb socket. As long as you have Wi-Fi, you can start operating it from your smartphone within minutes.
stakWhich smart appliances can it work with?
We support a wide range of IoT devices from major manufacturers. Air conditioners, TVs, lights, smart locks and almost every other main appliance in the home can be linked. For details, please contact us.
addcariWhat are the benefits of registering as a property owner?
You can turn vacant hours into hours that get used. IoT makes operation completely unmanned, so the workload is zero. It's a new rental space model that looks at occupancy rate rather than vacancy rate.
addcariWhat kinds of situations is it used for?
After-parties, birthday parties, photo shoots, meetings, small events and more — the uses are wide-ranging. With smartphone booking and unstaffed entry and exit, you can use a space the moment you think of it.
homehubCan it be installed in an existing home?
Yes, you can upgrade an existing home just as it is. By linking with smart locks and IoT devices, we enable unattended entry and exit and time-limited access. It works for any space you want to run unattended — vacation rentals, rental spaces, in-house meeting rooms and more.
TrainingWhich companies and participants is the training for?
We already have a track record of over 200 deployments, from large corporations to small and medium-sized businesses. It is not limited to IT departments: it is for every department that wants to reach a state where AI can actually be used on the job. We customize to participants' skill levels and industries.
TrainingCan we use government subsidies?
Various government subsidies, such as the Human Resource Development Subsidy, can be used. Depending on the conditions, up to 75% of the course fee is subsidized. For details, please contact us; we're happy to discuss.
MarketingWhat does the marketing support process look like?
We start by organizing your challenges and designing a strategy. From there, we provide every tactic you need — communications, PR, web marketing, social media and analytics — in one place. By making full use of AI tools, we deliver results while keeping costs down.
GeneralCan multiple services be combined?
If anything, that is exactly where stak is strong. Combine Home Hub with addcari property operations, for example, and you have a space-rental business with zero operational workload thanks to unstaffed operation × IoT. Many companies also use our AI training alongside web marketing support.
GeneralWhat is your pricing structure?
It varies by service. stak is a product purchase, addcari is pay-as-you-go based on usage time, homehub is a custom quote based on deployment scale, and training and marketing plans are designed to fit your requirements and scale. Individual consultations are available — contact us.
