Central AX Inc. (Nakamura-ku, Nagoya; CEO Jun Matsuura) handles generative AI training, custom AI development and LLMO with a single team. Since its founding in May 2026 it had supported 20 companies by the end of August.

Summary

Central AX Inc. is a Nagoya company that helps businesses adopt AI. One team handles training on ChatGPT, Claude and Copilot, custom AI development, and LLMO so companies appear in AI search. Founded in May 2026, it is led by CEO Jun Matsuura and COO Katsu Kondo.

  • Training, custom development and LLMO, usually split across vendors, are handled by one team
  • They visit factories and offices before proposing anything, focusing on manufacturing, construction, logistics and tourism in Tokai
  • Supported 20 companies between founding in May and the end of August 2026; a Claude Code demo event drew 120 sign-ups

Training and development, not split apart

AI projects tend to fail in one of two ways: training with nowhere to apply it, or systems nobody knows how to use.

Central AX handles training, custom development and LLMO with one team. When the same people teach and build, that gap is less likely to open.

TableCommon problems and how Central AX answers them
If you are facingWhat they can do
You pay for generative AI, but nobody uses itRedesign around the work people want to make easier, and stay until it runs in-house
You cannot decide where to start with AIThey visit the floor and find the task that eats the most time
Daily reports and checklists are still on paperPrototype on one workflow first, then expand what works
ChatGPT never mentions your company for your industryOrganize and publish information in a form AI can cite (LLMO)

First, they go to the floor

Rather than sending proposals after a video call, they visit factories and offices and start by looking at paper reports and how each person actually works, focusing on manufacturing, construction, logistics and tourism in Aichi, Gifu, Mie and Shizuoka.

About the founder, Jun Matsuura

Jun MatsuuraJun MatsuuraCEO, Central AX Inc.

He founded Central AX in May 2026 while studying at Nagoya University, driven by the gap he felt on every trip to Tokyo: AI was becoming routine there, but not yet in Tokai.

His first venture, a smartphone locker for students, did not work out. He then spent a year beside a business owner in Tokyo, asking why each decision was made, which shaped how he runs Central AX today (from SECOND TAKE ST.001).

He has used Claude Code at work since release day, and in August 2026 co-hosted a demo with a certified public accountant on audit work and company analysis that drew 120 sign-ups.

Think a thousand times, so you can move ten.
