【Mission / Vision】 Fact Base Inc. is a SaaS startup founded in September 2022 with the mission of “Making Manufacturing Seamless.” With the vision of “Building a platform where small factories take the lead in manufacturing,” our goal is to empower Japan’s manufacturing industry to once again lead the world. Since our founding, we have been committed to solving challenges faced by small and medium-sized manufacturers — such as the complexity of managing technical drawings and the difficulty of utilizing information — by delivering services that truly support people on the manufacturing frontlines and drive digital transformation across the industry. 【Service: “Zumeen” — Redefining How Manufacturers Manage Drawings】 At Fact Base, we develop “Zumeen,” a cloud-based drawing management system designed to empower small and medium-sized manufacturers to embrace digital transformation (DX). In many factories, drawings and related documents are still managed on paper — making it hard to find information, share updates, or make use of valuable data. Zumeen changes that. By connecting drawings and all related information in one cloud platform, Zumeen makes manufacturing workflows faster, smarter, and more collaborative. Today, it’s already being used by hundreds of small factories across Japan as the first step toward smarter, data-driven manufacturing.

Traditional cameras rely on an imaging lens which typically consists of several lens elements and a light sensitive sensor. Cameras have been built like this since 1816. Glass has been historically used to make high quality optical elements. We are replacing these elements with deep neural networks that give extreme flexibility when designing our cameras. It allows us to squeeze a huge sensor into an ultra thin module that fits perfectly into a mobile device without the need for protruding bumps. Our cameras bring SLR image quality into your pocket.
