AI Hack Inc. (Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Daisuke Nakamichi, hereinafter “AI Hack”) announces the official release of a new “Area Configuration Function” within its AIO (AI Optimization) analysis tool, AI Hack. This feature enables AI responses to be optimized for each country and region. By switching the AI’s search environment across 25 major areas, including Japan, the United States, Europe, and Asia, users can conduct region-specific analysis, compare countries, and implement more accurate AIO strategies for international markets.

Background

In recent years, search and answer experiences powered by generative AI have expanded rapidly and are becoming one of the primary ways users access information. As usage spreads globally, generative AI continues to evolve by incorporating country/region-specific information environments and reference sources, resulting in increasingly localized responses. Consequently, even when asked the same question, the brands presented, the sources referenced, and the nuances of evaluations can differ significantly between Japan and other countries.

As generative AI increasingly references different information sources by region and produces locally optimized answers, companies now need a way to accurately identify discrepancies in AI responses across different markets. The newly released Area Configuration Function addresses this challenge by enabling organizations to capture regional variations in AI-based evaluations and visibility. This supports more precise AIO strategies and helps eliminate biases arising from regional differences.

Overview of the Area Configuration Function

The newly added Area Configuration Function allows users to specify the target country or region for each service. It then retrieves AIO scores based on AI search results optimized for the user perspective in that selected area. This makes it possible to replicate region-specific search environments and more accurately understand how differences between regions affect AI-based evaluations and visibility.

In this release, the feature will be available for the following 25 regions, primarily covering major countries such as Japan and the United States. It is supported on select models, including Google AI Overview, Google AI Mode, and GPT-5.1.

  • US – United States
  • CN – China
  • DE – Germany
  • JP – Japan
  • GB – United Kingdom
  • FR – France

Features of the AIO Analysis Tool “AI Hack”

AI Hack is an AIO analysis tool that sends prompts to multiple generative AI models (such as ChatGPT) and visualizes and scores their responses from multiple perspectives. The main features are as follows.

Visualizing AI responses of company’s content

  • By registering prompts (questions), the tool retrieves responses from multiple AIs/LLMs and visualizes how content is being addressed.

Multidimensional analysis using five AIO scores

  • The tool scores AI responses across several indicators, including Priority Score, Positive Score, Negative Score, Mention Volume Score, and Domain Reference Score.

Competitive analysis

  • In addition to your own information, the tool simultaneously scores multiple competitors’ companies and services to enable comprehensive competitive analysis.

Future Outlook

AI Hack recognizes that accurately capturing the diverse AI search environments across countries and regions will become even more critical for future brand strategies. Building on the release of the Area Configuration Function, the company will continue enhancing analytical accuracy and expanding supported regions to create an environment that enables companies to consistently monitor AI evaluations in global markets. As the value of AI utilization in business continues to grow, AI Hack will advance the development of practical and reliable features that support stronger decision-making for enterprises.

AIO Consulting Service for Overseas Markets

In conjunction with the launch of this feature, AI Hack will jointly promote an “AIO Consulting Service” with its partner company, AUN Consulting, Inc. (Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Akira Shida; TSE Standard: 2459), to support the planning and execution of region-specific AIO strategies.

AUN Consulting has an extensive track record in domestic and international marketing and is known for its strengths in developing global web strategies based on country-specific search trends and user behavior. Utilizing the country/region-specific AIO data obtained through AI Hack’s Area Configuration Function, the service will analyze AI-based visibility and evaluation tendencies that vary significantly across regions and provide support for designing and improving optimized AIO strategies tailored to each area.

This enables highly actionable decision-making, including strengthening promotions for overseas markets and selecting priority regions based on regional strategies.
