Polaris Office Launches Enterprise AI Development Platform Business with 'Pable Studio'

Polaris Office is expanding its in-house artificial intelligence (AI) development platform for enterprise services. The company is building an environment where employees can create necessary work services using only natural language, and plans to actively target the corporate AI transformation (AX) market through collaboration with its affiliates.

On September 30, Polaris Office announced that, based on its experience of implementing and applying its self-developed no-code platform, Pable Studio, in real work scenarios, it will launch an enterprise AI development platform business. The company plans to secure a new growth driver by expanding its established software development expertise and software-as-a-service (SaaS) operation experience into a work service creation platform.

Pable Studio is a platform where users can describe desired work functions in natural language, and its AI coding agent, 'PAX,' supports the actual service implementation. It automates necessary development tasks such as server, database (DB), and deployment environment setup, and also provides infrastructure for web hosting. Its standout feature is to enable employees without extensive development experience to directly create work-focused services.

The platform is also equipped with management functions for corporate use. Administrators can centrally manage the AI coding agent built into the platform, set cost limits, or control prompt usage. Developers can utilize plugins that connect AI tools used locally to their Pable Studio projects.

Polaris Office has already secured in-house application cases. For example, the company developed and operates a service called 'numit' using Pable Studio to aggregate cost information by team. Previously, cost information from each team was collected via monthly email, but now this repetitive information-collection work has been automated as a standalone service.

To further expand such use cases, Polaris Office is linking them to its in-house 'AX Makers' program. Employees are supported in identifying areas needing improvement in their workflow and in creating and deploying requisite services. Feedback on efficiency and areas for improvement, identified as services are used in actual work processes, is incorporated into platform development to increase its level of completion.

Polaris Office is also seeking collaboration with affiliates to scale up its business. This involves combining Polaris Cloud’s cloud architecture and operation expertise, the groupware business experience of Polaris AI Handy, and both companies’ enterprise and public-sector client bases with Pable Studio. By adding affiliates’ know-how in deployment, operation, and sales to its service creation technology, the company aims to address AX needs tailored to each corporate environment and to uncover joint business opportunities.

An on-premise version for companies wishing to use the platform in environments isolated from external networks, such as closed networks, is also in preparation. The company plans to broaden its scope so that Pable Studio can be adopted in various forms to align with different corporate security and IT environments.

A Polaris Office official stated, “Pable Studio offers an environment in which employees most familiar with their own work can directly create needed services in collaboration with an AI development partner. By combining accumulated in-house experience with the business capabilities of Polaris Cloud and Polaris AI Handy, we will support corporate clients in adopting and utilizing AX, and nurture the corporate AI development platform as a new growth engine for the group.”

Going forward, Polaris Office plans to continuously reflect the user experience and operational know-how gained during in-house testing into the platform, strengthen technical cooperation among affiliates, and expand its strategy to target the B2B AX market, enabling corporate clients to easily adopt no-code coding solutions tailored to their own IT environments.
