MTinkermode provides end-to-end IoT solutions that combine hardware sensors, cloud-based data storage, and analytics with AI-ready interfaces for web applications. Sensors collect data, devices transmit it to the cloud where it is stored, processed, and analyzed with AI tools, then shown through dashboards and APIs for use in manufacturing, logistics, and smart city projects. It differentiates itself by offering a full-stack IoT platform (hardware, cloud, and customized software) across multiple industries, focusing on real-time data and tailored software rather than a one-size-fits-all product. The goal is to help organizations optimize operations and make better decisions through real-time data and cloud-based analytics.

LINE WORKS begins integration with BizStack IoT platform. Last updated: October 5, 2026 10:47 am LINE WORKS and MODE have begun a functional integration between LINE WORKS, the business communication platform, and BizStack, MODE's IoT platform. The integration enables important alerts identified through BizStack's collection and analysis of field data to be delivered in real time to LINE WORKS chat rooms. With the integration alerts about equipment issues threshold limits being exceeded and other key changes detected by BizStack can now be sent automatically through LINE WORKS. This means staff can stay aware of field conditions using a communication tool they are already familiar with without having to monitor an IoT dashboard. The companies said the integration aims to help teams respond quickly to changes and abnormalities, at work sites. It allows workers to make decisions and take early action when needed. MODE provides BizStack to support automated measurement and monitoring using IoT technology, particularly at construction and civil engineering sites. The platform collects and analyzes various types of field data, including information from sensors and cameras, existing business systems and SaaS applications. BizStack also includes BizStack Assistant, a conversational AI solution that allows users to access and utilize field data through natural-language interactions. MODE has been expanding integrations with communication tools commonly used at worksites to make this data easier to access and use. I have seen that LINE WORKS offers a variety of business communication tools such as chat, groupware functions, bulletin boards, calendars, address books and surveys. LINE WORKS is used in industries like construction, manufacturing and logistics where good communication and sharing of information between office staff and field workers are key. I think that by linking the two platforms users can get IoT-based information, through LINE WORKS of depending only on separate monitoring displays. Companies hope that this will make field data easier to access and help them react faster to problems. The integration requires users to have contracts for both BizStack and BizStack Assistant from MODE. The companies said LINE WORKS will continue expanding integrations with services such as BizStack to support operational efficiency across a range of field-based industries. BizStack is designed to centrally integrate real-time field data and information from existing systems, using AI-assisted functions to support operational efficiency and safety. It can collect and analyze data from IoT sensors, cameras, existing business systems and SaaS platforms in real time. LINE WORKS has been developed as a business communication platform combining the usability of LINE with business-oriented management and security features. According to the announcement, it held the No. 1 domestic paid business-chat market share for nine consecutive years from fiscal 2017 through fiscal 2025, based on Fuji Chimera Research Institute's Software Business New Market 2018-2026.
With robust security now formally recognized, MODE is further positioned as a trusted DX partner for enterprises seeking to harness the potential of on-site data and generative AI safely.
MODE Inc., an AI-driven data management platform, secured $5.3 million in new funding from investors including KDDI Open Innovation Fund, Canon Marketing Japan, and Kirin-GB Fund, bringing its total funding to $14 million.
MODE, focusing on workplace reform through IoT and AI, raised ¥800 million in Series B funding from KDDI Open Innovation Fund, Canon Marketing Japan, KIRIN HEALTH INNOVATION FUND, and SAFEIE VENTURES, totaling ¥2.1 billion. Since 2014, they've raised ¥4.57 billion. Their platform, BizStack, and AI assistant, BizStack Assistant, enhance workplace data visualization. Funds will advance AI tech and expand into the U.S. market.
Kirin Holdings, in collaboration with Global Brain, has invested in MODE, Inc. through the "KIRIN HEALTH INNOVATION FUND" in December 2024. MODE, a Silicon Valley startup, combines IoT and generative AI to enhance real-time data usability in complex field operations. Their platform, BizStack, and AI assistant, BizStack Assistant, aim to improve operational efficiency. The fund targets innovative startups in health science, with a total of ¥5 billion under management since March 2020.
