Also, stickers facilitate smoother information sharing, while API integration connects LINE WORKS with various IT solutions. Renowned for its usability on both PCs and smartphones, LINE WORKS ensures seamless information sharing and boosts operational efficiency, accelerating your business to new heights.

 

LINE WORKS offers three AI products: ‘LINE WORKS AiCall’ (AI-based phone answering service), ‘LINE WORKS OCR’ (AI-based OCR service), and ‘LINE WORKS Vision’ (cloud-based video recording service). In addition to utilizing AI in these services, we’re actively engaged in research and development to further leverage AI technology and create additional value.
