Company News
uSonar Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Chairman: Nami Fukutomi; hereinafter "uSonar") is pleased to announce the implementation of "u-Nou," a business assistance feature, into our management strategy platform, PLANSonar. This marks the second implementation of u-Nou, following its integration into mSonar in June. uSonar aims to become a "Corporate Data Infrastructure Company" that contributes to strengthening management foundations by providing user companies with the LBC corporate database, which excels in data quality, structure, and freshness.
Features and Characteristics of "u-Nou" Implemented in PLANSonar
uBrain is an AI-assisted feature designed to more effectively utilize information from LBC*, Japan's largest corporate database.
We have now implemented the uBrain Search Suggest feature into the Mixer function of PLANSonar, which allows users to create original sales lists.
Users can receive search criteria suggestions through interactive chat with uBrain. By simply entering the criteria for the list you wish to create into the chat box, you can identify search conditions tailored to your specific objectives.
Capabilities of uBrain Mixer Search Suggest
- Suggestions for Search Criteria
When you enter the criteria for the list you wish to create in natural language, the system suggests search condition candidates based on the content.
By registering your company's products or services in advance, you can create sales lists that are better suited to your business.
- Automatic Setting of Search Criteria
By checking the candidates, they are automatically set as search criteria in the Mixer, narrowing down the target count.

Expansion of FAQ with the Addition of uBrain PLANSonar Support
We have also added uBrain PLANSonar Support, which allows you to ask questions via chat if you encounter any difficulties while operating PLANSonar.
Future Developments for uBrain
uBrain for PLANSonar serves as an interface that makes it easier to utilize the LBC corporate database, which uSonar has accumulated and comprehensively covered, through natural conversation. We position this feature as a tool to extend the value of our database beyond specialized personnel to sales and marketing teams in the field.
Moving forward, we will continue to develop services that allow for more intuitive and efficient utilization of corporate data by combining uBrain and LBC, such as searching for corporate information and setting conditions using natural language, as well as performing corporate analysis by combining multiple data sets.

* Regarding LBC: LBC is uSonar's corporate data, which assigns an 11-digit management code to business locations across Japan. It centrally manages a wealth of corporate attribute information, such as industry, revenue, profit, number of employees, and fixed IP addresses. By matching your client data with LBC, you can enable precise targeting that excludes existing clients.
Japan's Largest: Based on our own research on the number of headquarters and business location data held for Japanese companies (as of September 1, 2026).
