“Connected” navigation system that seamlessly assists you when you go out
naviAZ is a navigation software brand that accounts for 15% of the Japanese car navigation market share.
The name naviAZ refers to our desire to optimize navigation for ALL activities, expressed by the first and the last letters of the alphabet, "A" and "Z.”
naviAZ is a reliable navigator that always delivers the latest information by virtue of its being “connected.”
naviAZ has continued to grow in order to meet the needs of our customers.
Its mobile phone synchronization feature, for example, allows users to keep receiving information even after they’ve stepped out of the car.
Other useful features include differential updating of maps and voice recognition, which have now become standard, as well as multilingual support, which allows you to switch to different languages, an essential feature for commercial enterprises.
We are determined to be your navigation service of choice, offering you what you didn’t know you needed.
naviAZ’s 2 selling points
naviAZ, the perfect navigator
for all forms of mobility
The use of naviAZ is not limited to car navigation systems.
Major manufacturers in Japan and overseas have adopted it for a variety of different mobility scenarios: walking, cycling, motorbiking, boating, and more.
The secret lies in the modularization of each feature.
By selecting and combining only the necessary features from modules like road traffic information (VICS), route finding, map display, search, maps, guidance, map matching, location, and so on, we can provide optimized services for each situation as well as hybrid services that combine all of the above.
In the future, we plan to release services that can run not only on our platform but on PC browsers too.
naviAZ makes for a freer and richer navigation experience.
A navigation system that seamlessly “connects” with the latest information at any time
naviAZ is constantly receiving the latest information from the server.
This allows users to always receive highly up-to-date information.
We have set up a system that ensures you’ll have the best time on your outings by automatically updating every month the latest map information and providing information on new POIs (Points of Interest: specific points on the map like names of establishments).
naviAZ is a navigation service that delivers exactly the navigation experience you want.
