Tak-Me Launches SignAI for Sign Industry on Outdoor Advertising Day

Tak-Me Co., Ltd. will begin offering SignAI, a corporate AI service for sign and signage companies, on September 10, 2026. The service supports three tasks: researching outdoor advertising ordinances, takeoff from drawings, and sharing internal know-how. Tak-Me, based in Kobe and founded in 2021, developed the service from customer interviews and early use before launch.

The launch date is also the company's founding date, and Tak-Me describes both as Outdoor Advertising Day. SignAI is positioned as a corporate service rather than a general-purpose chatbot: it shows the source of each ordinance it cites so the user can check the original text, and it requires the person in charge to verify extraction results before they go into an estimate. Final judgment on any ordinance still requires confirmation with the competent municipality.

  • Outdoor Advertising Ordinance AI: Organizes the applicable municipality, use district, and ordinances from an address or conditions, with sources shown.
  • Drawing Recognition AI: Extracts dimensions, perimeter, area, and material candidates from PDF or image drawings and presents labor hours from registered production recipes.
  • Know-how AI: Registers construction cases, internal rules, and past know-how for use by the organization.
