Advanced Media Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; Chairman and President: Kiyoyuki Suzuki; hereinafter referred to as "Advanced Media") has announced that its minutes creation support system that utilizes AI voice recognition has been introduced to over 250 local governments. i will let you know.
Recently, local governments have been actively promoting work reform, such as using AI to correct long working hours. Among these, simple tasks such as transcription and preparation of meeting minutes are tasks that require increased efficiency and cost reduction. Since it is effective for both purposes, the introduction of voice recognition in local governments has expanded significantly since 1, when the Work Style Reform Act was enacted.

Since Advanced Media began full-scale operation at Numazu City Hall in Shizuoka Prefecture in June 2004, we have introduced the minutes creation support system to local governments across Japan, including the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly, Hokkaido Assembly, and Hyogo Prefectural Office. I've been here. The high recognition rate and stable performance and operability of deep learning technology have been praised, and the number of implementations in local governments has exceeded 6.
Voice transcription solutions mainly include "AmiVoice MinutesWriter," which is a standalone system that is installed in the customer's environment, and "ProVoXT," which is a cloud-based system that uploads audio files. You can choose.
In recent years, there has been an increase in the introduction of ProVoXT, a flat-rate cloud service that can be installed and started operating quickly and at low cost, and is being used by all government offices and by small municipalities.
