What Does Sola Do?

in

Sola is an IT company founded in Tokyo, Japan, in 2008. Since its inception, Sola has provided system engineering services (SES, contract development) to government agencies and corporations, using its IT engineers to design, build, operate, and improve systems. Today, we offer more than system design and construction. We also develop web services, smartphone apps, and AR/VR apps, utilizing a wide range of technologies without being tied to specific operating systems, packages, programming languages, or frameworks.

In 2013, we launched our research and development division and began creating our own products. To continuously provide modern solutions to our clients, we first implement these technologies ourselves, gaining practical experience. Through in-house development and operation by our team, we accumulate expertise, which we then share across the company. This allows us to provide our clients with new, high-quality technical services.

By 2024, Sola had released over 14 iPhone apps, and when including Apple Watch, VR apps, and web services, the total number of products exceeds 20.

In 2023, we established our first subsidiary outside of Japan, in the U.S., creating a structure to accept SES and contract development requests from non-Japanese corporations. Additionally, most of Sola’s applications are available in English (with some also supporting Spanish, Chinese, Korean, etc.). If you’re interested in Sola, we encourage you to try out our apps, including those developed by Sola of America Inc. (SoA).
