ITOKI began offering its three-agent workplace management service on Nov. 4, 2026, bringing AI tools to office portfolio decisions, relocation and renovation projects, and daily space bookings. The company calls the suite ITOKI OFFICE AI AGENTS and says customers can introduce its components in stages. It is aimed at corporate general affairs, facilities management and corporate planning teams.
Three agents cover strategy, projects and daily use
Facility Portfolio AI is designed to help companies assess how their offices are being used and inform decisions about their sites. It can take in office-related data and help users visualize, analyze and simulate scenarios. Users can describe what they want to decide in natural language, then create analysis screens for the decision at hand.
Workplace Insight AI addresses office moves, renovations and improvements to existing workplaces. It combines ITOKI’s office-design and facilities-management expertise with the ability to read materials such as employee surveys, interview records and floor plans. The system organizes issues and possible directions for improvement, according to the company.
Space Matching AI targets unused reservations for meeting rooms and desks. Its No-Show Hunter feature compares sensor readings with booking information to detect reservations that are not being used; a dashboard tracks those cases and the results of releasing the spaces. The sensors detect whether someone is present, but do not identify individuals.
A companion mobile app, Open Now, lists available meeting rooms, web booths and individual seats, and lets employees reserve them with a tap. Users can choose the types of space they want and receive notifications when one becomes available. ITOKI says the app can also direct users to spaces released by No-Show Hunter.
Existing company data is the starting point
ITOKI says the service can begin with data a company already holds, without requiring particular equipment or fully organized records at the outset. The company says information being analyzed stays on the user’s computer, while only the information needed for processing is sent to the AI. It also says AI-generated analysis is checked against independent validation rules and recorded so users can confirm its basis.
The company’s specialists are to help customers gather and organize data, define what they want analysis to answer, and design how the work will fit into business processes. The release presents that support as part of the service, alongside the software itself.
Itoki links the launch to pressure on facilities teams
ITOKI says mergers, group reorganizations and portfolio reviews are increasing the need to make timely decisions about consolidating, opening or changing sites. It also points to rising office rents and the application of Japan’s new lease accounting standard to fiscal years beginning on or after April 2027. In the company’s account, facilities teams face greater demands to explain lease decisions to finance departments and executives.
The release also describes facilities teams as often small relative to the number of sites they support, with location information and the reasoning behind past decisions scattered across individual employees’ files and experience. ITOKI says that makes it harder to compare locations and connect office data to decisions. The three agents are intended to bring parts of that work into a shared data-driven process.
More links between the agents are planned
ITOKI plans to expand the agents’ functions and connect their data, as well as strengthen links with existing services such as its Reserve Any meeting-room booking system. The company says it will combine data and workplace expertise with its ability to put recommendations into practice in physical office spaces.
Yutaka Matsuo, a technical adviser at Matsuo Institute and a professor at the University of Tokyo, commented on the service’s use of company data and expertise:
AIの時代には、企業が保有するデータや専門知識そのものが競争力になります。

In English: “In the age of AI, the data and specialized knowledge held by companies themselves become sources of competitiveness.”
