About
Hi! I’m Jun, CEO of Pit-Step Inc., an AI-powered game studio based in Tokyo. At university, I developed VR software and joined Japan’s Ministry of Education’s Program, visiting Silicon Valley. After joining Accenture, I led system development and offshore projects, later focusing on customer experience using AI and metaverse technologies. On the side, I built multiple AI/AR apps with indie teams. In 2021, I founded Pit-Step. We were selected by METI/WiL’s Next Innovator program and the JETRO × Techstars accelerator. We closed a pre-seed round with W fund and Fumio Kurokawa (ex-Sega, ex-Bushiroad VP) joined as investor and advisor.

Wattpad in Web3 - NFT Novel Posting Platform
Hi everyone! I'm a builder of KOTOVERSE, it's a novel posting platform in web3. We'll release its beta next month on PH, so I'd be glad to hear some feedbacks from you here. The basic features are below: - Post your novels (short stories) - a daily ranking is determined by the number of upvotes (as in PH or Reddit) - Reading novels is basically free - but the parts that are upvoted (Liked) a lot can later be listed as NFTs - Sell / buy characters (as NFT) - those can be used as a character in your story. More details are shown in the landing page as well. https://kotoverse.xyz/ Thank you in advance.
