Bebot has expanded its response services to foreign travelers, the elderly, and those who are visually impaired with its new “accessibility-enabled” AI chatbots in order to realize a society in which no one is left behind, as advocated by the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Bespoke Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Akemi Tsunagawa) and Tokyo International Airport Terminal Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ota-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Katsuji Doi) will offer a new AI (artificial intelligence) chat service to customers using Terminal 3 at Haneda Airport as a demonstration experiment.

Equipped with a natural language processing engine developed from chat histories from more than 30 million people, “Bebot” boasts a high degree of accuracy in answering questions that travelers need, including information on airport facilities and flight information. Bebot responds to information requests in an easy-to-understand way via natural conversation. In addition, the service is designed with consideration for foreign travelers, the elderly, and the visually impaired.

Background: Demand for Accessibility Support

Haneda Airport is used by customers with various accessibility needs, with common request examples including “I can’t find the information I need,” “The counters are too crowded,” “It’s hard to read small letters,” and “I can’t read Japanese.” Therefore, Bespoke decided to offer and upgrade the service “Bebot”, which can respond accurately regardless of the user’s native language or age.

Particular consideration was given to the following points.

1) Answers can be read aloud by a screen reader within the chat service.
