## About

Founded in 2015 and based in Tokyo, Japan, Zehitomo Inc. operates a matching platform that connects people who want to request services with businesses such as photographers, yoga instructors, and remodelers. The company was founded by Jordan Fisher (Chairman) and James McCarty (COO). In April 2024, Zehitomo Inc. raised Series C funding led by Darwin Venture Management, Kakao Investment, and Resona Capital. This round was part of a larger JPY 1.1 billion in equity and debt funding. As of 2024, the company is led by its CEO, Yuichiro Miura.

Zehitomo offers an artificial intelligence-based customer acquisition platform, which is an online platform connecting individuals with local service providers. Users can post requests for services ranging from home repairs and cleaning to lessons, pet care, and business support.
