About Donation Handling

  • Toneriko is currently operated as a personal project, so donations are received as personal contributions.
  • Donations are not tax-deductible. Thank you for your understanding.
  • How donations are used will be transparently published on this page each month.
  • We are considering incorporation as an NPO in the future. After incorporation, proper accounting and receipt issuance will be provided.
  • Donations are generally non-refundable, but refunds are available for accidental overcharges, duplicate payments, or unauthorized transactions. Monthly support can be cancelled at any time. See our Terms of Service for details.
Phase 0 — Active

Seed-Planting Phase

We started by building the "delivery system" from scratch

URL-Driven Platform

Organization info converted to URLs. No app needed — share instantly.

Auto-Generated Flyers

Generate A4 flyers with QR codes in one click. Supporting analog hand-delivery.

AI Search Engine

Find the best support organizations with natural language. Claude reads the situation and responds.

Batch Printing

Clip organizations you're interested in and print them all as a pamphlet.

NOW IN PROGRESS

Seed-Planting Phase Initiatives

Alongside building the system, we are working to improve data quality and volume.

AI-Powered Data Collection

Using Cabinet Office data as a base, AI is collecting missing organization information nationwide. Self-funded operation limits our pace, but we are gradually expanding from major cities outward.

View collection progress

Requesting Data from Government

Currently requesting information sharing from prefectural governments and Social Welfare Councils. Provided data will be used to improve search accuracy.

Collecting Feedback

Aiming to be "easy to use" for both those seeking and providing support. We are collecting feedback to deepen plans for the next phase.

Growth Roadmap

As support accumulates, our capabilities expand

Toneriko growth roadmap
Phase 1

Automated Collection & National Coverage

Goal月間支援 ¥50,000
Current progress30%
  • Automated Nationwide NPO Portal Crawling

    AI automatically crawls NPO portals nationwide. Expanding information without manual registration.

  • Transparency for AI-Collected Data

    Auto-generated provisional pages tagged as "AI-collected." Balancing information freshness and trustworthiness.

  • Beginning Civic Organization Research

    Starting to collect information on activities beyond NPOs. Providing richer search results.

When Phase 1 is achieved —

Not just NPOs but civic organizations too will be in the database. Anyone facing challenges can "just search and find every support option in their area." No more standing still, not knowing where to turn.

Phase 2

Automated Dialogue & Accuracy Improvement

Starts after Phase 1 is achieved
Real-time crawling of nationwide NPO portals
AI-driven automatic information freshness checks
Automated dialogue with organizations for information updates
Continuous improvement of search accuracy
