Zenshin Kaishi
AI-powered innovation assessment
A structured assessment platform that helps organisations understand where they stand on their innovation maturity journey — and what to do next. Aligned to ISO 56002, Zenshin Kaishi produces actionable, benchmarked reports rather than vanity scores.
What It Does
Zenshin Kaishi (Japanese: “progressive beginning”) guides organisations through a structured innovation maturity assessment. Participants answer context-aware questions across the eight leadership domains of ISO 56002. The platform uses AI to synthesise responses, identify patterns, and produce a prioritised improvement roadmap.
The Problem It Solves
Most innovation assessments are either surface-level surveys that produce feel-good scores, or expensive consulting engagements that take months. Neither is accessible to the mid-market organisations that need them most. Zenshin Kaishi delivers the depth of a consulting assessment at a fraction of the cost and time.
Who It’s For
- Innovation managers seeking objective baselines
- Leadership teams preparing for ISO 56001 certification
- Consultants who want to run structured assessments for clients
Building Blocks Used
