Japan expansion partner

Japan market entry for global tech.

ALTLIER helps AI, Web3, and internet products localize their message, build trust with Japanese users, and create local momentum through community, partnerships, content, and events.

Built from Web3-native execution: community growth, KOLs, side events, booths, viral campaigns, and founder networks.

Japan-as-a-Service

Your Japan team, on subscription.

Campaigns spike. Presence compounds. Most Web3 and AI projects run one event or one KOL burst in Japan — then go quiet and get forgotten. We run your Japan operation every month, so each campaign builds on the last instead of starting from zero.

PRESENCE

from $2,000

Be visible in Japan

  • Japanese X & community channels, run natively
  • KOL feature support
  • Japan market pulse reporting
SCALE

from $10,000

Operate like a local

  • Everything in Growth
  • Founder-led, executive door-opening
  • Co-hosted event opportunities in Japan
  • Strategy review and operating cadence

Minimum commitment applies — or milestone-based: through your TGE, listing, or conference season. Billed in USD (JPY available). Limited seats per quarter so every client gets a real team.

One plan, changing payloads.

Every Growth and Scale month includes a campaign slot you can point at whatever is next: a KOL burst before TGE, an event during IVS or WebX, listing-week amplification, or a community push. The team stays the same — the mission changes monthly.

Need a campaign first?

We fold campaign needs into your initial Growth month — so the spike comes with a team that stays.

From the field

Japan market entry should look like this.

We create the local moments that make a product visible: useful rooms, credible conversations, community rituals, and content people want to share.
