Live setup in 30 minutes — at any Japanese trade show

Your booth closes at 5pm.
The conversations shouldn't.

Ichigo gives every visitor who stops at your booth a personal AI room in their own language — where they can revisit your materials, ask questions in Japanese, and stay warm long after the show ends. And for the first time, you'll see exactly which business cards turned into revenue.

The problem

You flew in from China to meet Japanese buyers. Then their business cards died in a drawer.

Japanese leads go quiet after the show — not because they're not interested, but because the language barrier makes every follow-up email a negotiation.

3 days

The booth is a sprint

Hundreds of conversations, half through gestures and Google Translate. Nobody remembers who asked what — least of all the visitor.

2 weeks

The follow-up dies

Your English follow-up email lands in a Japanese inbox. It gets forwarded, sits in translation limbo, and quietly expires.

$0

The ROI is invisible

You spent millions on the booth and can't tell your CEO which conversations produced pipeline. So next year's budget gets cut.

How it works

One QR code per visitor. One room per relationship.

No app to install, no badge scanner to rent, no CRM project. Ichigo works with the two things every booth already has: business cards and conversations.

01

Feed Ichigo anything

Brochures, PDFs, a website URL, photos of your booth panels, even voice memos. Our AI builds your knowledge base from whatever you have — in 30 minutes, not 3 weeks.

02

Hand each visitor their QR

Take their business card, hand them a card with a unique QR. That code is their personal room — tied to their name, their questions, their interest. Not a generic landing page.

The room keeps selling

That night, on the train home, they open their room. Your materials are there — and an AI that answers their questions in Japanese, grounded only in your approved content.

The dashboard

The first booth report your CFO will actually believe.

Every card captured, every question asked, every deal that came from it — attributed to the show, the day, and the conversation. This is what your cards are worth.

Illustrative dashboard with sample data. Pipeline values are entered or confirmed by your team — Ichigo attributes them to the original card and conversation.

Why exhibitors choose Ichigo

Built for the booth, not the back office.

Same-day setup

Pay by card at your booth, feed us your materials, and hand out your first QR within 30 minutes. No IT project, no procurement cycle.

True language bridge

Visitors ask in Japanese, your content answers in Japanese — grounded strictly in your approved materials. You read everything in English.

One room per visitor

Every QR is unique. You see who's engaging, what they care about, and when they go hot — per person, not per pageview.

Card-to-cash attribution

Tag deals to their original conversation. Walk into next year's budget meeting with "this show produced $455K" — not a stack of cards.

Safe by design

The AI answers only from your uploaded content. Per-room rate limits stop abuse. Anything it can't answer routes to you — never invented.

Works beyond expos

Job fairs, distributor events, showroom visits — anywhere you meet people across a language barrier and need the conversation to survive the day.

"We collected 200 cards at Tokyo shows for three years and closed nothing. This year we could finally see who was actually reading, asking, and buying — and followed up in Japanese without hiring anyone."

Pricing

Priced like a booth line-item. Not an enterprise contract.

Your booth costs $7K–$17K per show. Ichigo is 3–8% of that — and it's the only line-item that keeps working after teardown.

Common questions

Asked at every booth we visit.

Do visitors need an app?

No. The QR opens a mobile web page instantly. No login, no download, no friction — this matters enormously with Japanese visitors.

What if our materials are messy?

That's the norm, not the exception. PDFs, photos of panels, a URL, a voice memo — we ingest whatever you have and our team checks the AI's grounding before your rooms go live.

Can the AI say something wrong?

It answers only from your approved content, cites the source page, and escalates anything uncertain to you. Every room has rate limits, and you can review full transcripts.

Where does the pipeline number come from?

Your team tags deal values to leads (or confirms our suggestions). Ichigo ties each deal back to the original card, day, and conversation — that's the attribution.

Is our data safe?

Rooms are unique, unlisted URLs with per-visitor limits. Your content is never used to train models and can be deleted entirely after the show.

We exhibit outside Japan too.

Ichigo works at any event where your buyers speak a different language than your team — including job fairs and distributor events across Asia.

One encounter. Every opportunity.
