Episotech Ltd.

Episotech Ltd. is a Japanese software company that develops and operates Dive, a cloud-based SaaS platform for creating and using video standard operating procedures (SOPs). The product is positioned as a 'video procedure manual' system: instead of producing training videos that employees watch once and forget, Dive converts footage of actual work into step-by-step instructions that workers can consult on the spot when they are unsure how to proceed. According to the company's official site, Dive combines video, text and quiz questions for each step, so that judgment criteria, tips and cautions that video alone cannot convey are captured in writing, while comprehension is checked through questions. The platform supports conditional branching, AI-assisted double-checking, keyword search across subtitles and in-video text, and AI search that lets users describe what they want to do or what they are struggling with. A major differentiator highlighted by Episotech is multilingual support. Dive offers translation into 192 languages for the content of the procedure manuals — text, subtitles and read-aloud — and the Dive operation interface itself is available in 29 languages, aimed at foreign workers such as technical interns and specified skilled workers as well as overseas factory sites. The system is also designed for weak-network environments: it works offline in a browser and on PCs and Windows tablets through pre-loading, automatic caching and optimized video delivery, which the company says suits workplaces where Windows devices dominate and connectivity is unreliable. The official homepage cites more than 800 registered companies and a continuation rate of over 99% (based on paid annual contracts, three-month average as of August 2026). It also notes that Dive received the Venture Grand Prix at the ASPIC Cloud Award 2024, supported by Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, and the Tokyo Content/Solution Business Award 2023, supported by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. The company markets Dive as a tool for 'education DX' (digital transformation of training), human resource development and skills transfer, particularly in manufacturing and other frontline settings where experienced workers' tacit knowledge needs to be documented and passed on. Episotech operates primarily in the Japanese market, with its product aimed at manufacturers and other organizations that employ diverse workforces, including foreign staff. The company is privately held; no parent company or stock listing is indicated in the available evidence. Its core offering is the Dive SaaS platform, sold on annual paid contracts, with a self-service onboarding flow that the site says allows users to start in about five minutes via the web.

Episotech Ltd. is a Japanese software company whose principal product is Dive, a cloud-based video SOP (standard operating procedure) SaaS platform. The company is identified in public data as a Japanese software company that develops the video SOP SaaS 'Dive'. Its official product site presents Dive as a response to a common problem in workplace training: companies invest time in producing video manuals, but employees watch them once and then still ask senior colleagues when they are unsure on the job. The site cites a survey of manufacturing workplaces in which 87% of respondents said that even after watching a video manual they end up asking a senior colleague. Dive's approach is to restructure the video manual from a 'pre-training' format into a 'frontline support' format. Each procedure is broken into steps, and each step combines video with text and quiz questions, so that judgment criteria, tips and cautions are documented and comprehension can be checked. The platform supports conditional branching, AI-based double-checking, direct access to specific steps and subtitles, keyword search across subtitles and in-video text, and AI search where users describe their goal or problem. Multilingual capability is central: content can be translated into 192 languages (text, subtitles and read-aloud), and the Dive interface itself supports 29 languages. The system is also engineered for weak-network environments, working offline in a browser and on PCs and Windows tablets via pre-loading, automatic caching and optimized video delivery. According to the official homepage, Dive has been adopted by more than 800 registered companies, with a continuation rate above 99% based on paid annual contracts (three-month average as of August 2026). The product received the Venture Grand Prix at the ASPIC Cloud Award 2024, supported by Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, and the Tokyo Content/Solution Business Award 2023, supported by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. The company markets Dive for education DX, human resource development and skills transfer, particularly in manufacturing and other frontline industries. Episotech is privately held, and the available evidence does not indicate a parent company, stock listing, or founding date.
