For Organizations
For Municipalities, Senior Care Facilities, and Companies Considering Implementation
OTOKAI is a dementia prevention program built around weekly AI-assisted music composition lessons.
OTOKAI is an innovative cognitive wellness program that uses music to support dementia prevention. Participants use a dedicated app to compare and select music inspired by a given theme, then create a unique work of their own. Classes are held once a week.
Anyone can enjoy a simple music composition experience, and the creative process naturally stimulates the brain, helping maintain cognitive function.
The program also encourages social interaction, helping participants discover new interests and build meaningful connections with others.
OTOKAI classes are typically conducted once a week in small groups of approximately ten participants. The program can be delivered both in person and online, allowing implementation within facilities, at external venues, or from participants’ homes.
Typical Lesson Flow
Because ongoing participation is required, cognitive assessments are not included in one-time events.

OTOKAI Has Been Developed Based on Scientific Research
A joint study with the Advanced Institute of Industrial Technology in Tokyo indicated improvements in frontal lobe function among participants who continued the program.
The initiative has also been selected for Tokyo’s Strategic Innovation Promotion Program, and a second study is currently underway.
No complicated preparation is required, making OTOKAI easy to implement.
Municipalities, senior care facilities, and companies can benefit from implementing OTOKAI in a variety of ways.
Easy Implementation Without Special Equipment
No specialized equipment is required. A smartphone or tablet and an internet connection are all that is needed.
Encourages Social Interaction and Community Building
Even when given the same prompt, participants interpret it differently and choose different music. This naturally sparks conversation and strengthens connections among participants.
Designed to Sustain Engagement Over Time
The standard package consists of weekly sessions over six months, allowing organizations to observe long-term participant outcomes. The schedule is designed to keep participants engaged without becoming overwhelming.
For Municipalities
Can be readily integrated into community-based dementia and frailty prevention initiatives.
Combines music and conversation to promote both wellness and community engagement.
For Senior Care Facilities
Provides residents with enjoyable opportunities for active participation and social engagement.
The unique combination of music and conversation distinguishes the program from traditional recreational activities.
For Companies
Creates natural opportunities for engagement between companies and older adults.
Supports market understanding and relationship building. It can also enhance brand value while contributing to local communities.
