Introducing DR Code — AI-Generated QR Codes That Are a Joy to Give and Fun to Scan

A delight to receive, a joy to scan — introducing the all-new DR Code

On Tuesday, June 13th, Remain in, Inc. (Minami-Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo / CEO: Yuya Okawa) launched DR Code (Delight Response code) as part of its AI business. This service provides QR codes (*) enriched with visual information by fusing them with art, photographs, and illustrations.

Anyone can easily generate artistic QR codes using AI with their smartphone.

■ About "DR Code"
"DR Code," which allows QR codes familiar in daily life to be enjoyed as art-like creations, holds great potential.
Scanning may take a few extra seconds compared with standard codes, but the playful design greatly increases the chance people will actually scan it.
Applications are diverse, including product packaging, instruction manuals, SNS links, and corporate business cards.
Since AI generation of DR Codes is not 100% precise, they are created through a process involving steps such as extracting the base QR code, setting the composition, verifying prompt accuracy, using commercially viable AI models, iteratively training the AI model used, physical image editing, and AI correction steps.

■ Call for Supporters & Seminar Announcement
Our company is developing various AI services, including "DR Code." AI engineers are encouraged to apply via our website.
Furthermore, to revitalize the domestic DR Code market by increasing the number of personnel skilled in AI utilization, we will hold seminars where participants can learn about general image creation using generative AI, not limited to DR Codes.

Please note that if we receive a large number of applications, they will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis.

CEO

Yuya Shibata

Now that I've reached my mid-30s, I’m re-evaluating what I want from my career.

After graduating, I plunged into my career in my twenties. I joined Dentsu as a business producer (sales), balancing my work for clients while considering future career growth. At the same time, I learned marketing independently, crafting strategies from top to bottom.

As I reached my 30s, I was given leadership roles, progressing steadily. But I started questioning, “What am I truly seeking in my career?”

I realized that staying on a predetermined path was hindering my growth.

That’s when I encountered Remain Inc., which helped me rediscover my value and purpose.

Initially, I hesitated to take the leap, using my age as an excuse. But the supportive environment at Remain Inc. broke down my doubts, pushing me toward personal growth.

In Remain Inc., the team shares a sense of mutual ambition and collaboration,

working together with purpose and guided by both logic and emotion to create the best outcomes.

I now feel proud to be part of this collective effort to build something lasting, a group that takes responsibility and works with integrity.

I joined Remain Inc. with the condition that I could take on the role of CEO someday, a challenge that pushed me to grow.

Here, I can decide my value, a philosophy that Remain Inc. upholds.

Although I was evaluated positively in past roles, I often lacked the sense of fulfillment and purpose that I’ve found here. Now, only three months in, I’m already pursuing my original ambitions and seeing tangible results. For anyone seeking clarity amid career doubts, I believe Remain Inc. offers a supportive environment, the best colleagues, and the opportunity to make meaningful contributions.

I am confident that "what I'm looking for" can be found at Remain Inc.

Kei Ogiso

Building multiple businesses as a startup studio is not an 'end goal' but an 'absolute means.

Previously, as a consultant, I worked with executives across various industries to address their business challenges. During this time, I realized that simply providing support as a consultant was not enough for me—I wanted to take on risks, responsibility, and authority as a business owner and be directly accountable for outcomes.

Meeting Remain Inc. felt like encountering something close to my ideals: rapid execution, dedication to quality, and a shared sense of belief. I began to seriously consider entrepreneurship.

Remain Inc. Group has cultivated a startup studio with a distinct corporate culture.

The goal is not merely to build numerous businesses but to establish "early profitability," "ownership in the market," and a "sustainable, self-perpetuating business model."

This vision is embodied in Golden Hour Inc., our first subsidiary, which has been instrumental in establishing our ethos.

I currently serve as its CEO, leading comprehensive consulting and marketing support for prominent cosmetic clinics in Japan, and working to realize Remain Inc. Group’s vision.

We will continue to take on new challenges

with determination and move forward with our talented colleagues, fostering growth and achieving new levels of success.

Remain in. is a place where I can work alongside top performers from other industries, using the skills I’ve developed in my professional career.

I joined Remain Inc. through an invitation from Yamaguchi, a high school friend and founder of the company.

My previous career followed the "typical investment banking career path" with roles in finance departments of various companies, including private equity funds, venture capital, and startups.

However, I realized that I wasn't truly passionate about this work and felt like I was simply following a pre-set track.

I began to question why I was limiting my ambitions, but couldn’t break free until I encountered Remain Inc., where I felt a sense of freedom to create my career path.

Remain in offers an ideal environment for professionals contemplating their next steps.

It encourages individuals to think independently, solve challenges quickly, and combine their expertise with creativity to create new value.

With access to outstanding people, resources, systems, and knowledge, Remain Inc. serves as a supportive platform for realizing entrepreneurial ambitions.

Despite my previous success in finance, joining Remain Inc.

has provided me with unparalleled growth, fueled by collaboration with top performers from various industries, allowing me to leverage my skills and personality to the fullest.

Remain Inc. is home to a group of top performers who bring their skills, expertise, and knowledge to bear on each venture. They do not cling to their past achievements but rather fully apply their abilities to their work here, embracing teamwork and mutual support. As a result, success is not confined to individual projects but extends the platform’s potential.

Remain Inc. isn’t just an organization; it’s a platform for professionals like myself who have career concerns such as, "I don’t want my skills to go to waste" or "I want to maintain my current salary level." It provides the best platform for fulfilling these goals and furthering my professional and personal growth.
