Who it’s for: trading houses, CPGs, OEMs, R&D labs—and yes, even our competitors—who need a fast, independent read on digital olfaction/taste, panel digitization, QC drift detection, ingredient substitution, and experiential/retail use-cases.
What you get: a clear landscape, a fit-for-purpose shortlist, and a PoC-ready plan you can act on with any provider.

90-minute discovery (Zoom)

2 mapped use-cases to your context (e.g., QA drift, NPD, retail experience)
Data & compliance checkpoint (what you need before a PoC)
Deliverables: 2-page brief (PDF) + 30-min readout
Turnaround: 5 business days
2) DECISION SPRINT — ¥250,000Everything in SCOUT LITE plus:

Credit-back: If you later commission an Ajinomatrix PoC within 6 months, we credit 100% of your Scouting fee (up to ¥250,000) against that PoC.
How it works
Book & pay online (Stripe/invoice).
Intake form (goals, constraints, data, timeline).
We deliver the brief / sprint deck and hold the readout.
You proceed with any vendor(s) you choose—no lock-in.
Independence & conflicts
We operate vendor-neutral; when Ajinomatrix is a candidate vendor, we declare it up front and the credit-back applies.
Your materials stay confidential under our standard NDA.
Deliverables available EN/JA/KR; workshop bilingual on request.
