About Sansan

With the mission “Turning encounters into innovation,” Sansan provides its namesake Sansan B2B service powering digital transformation in companies, the Eight business card app for individual professionals, Bill One for cloud-based invoice management, and Contract One for the contract database.

Products/solutions

Sansan – The database to power your sales

Sansan is the solution for digitally transforming sales. Sansan surpasses contact management, accurately digitizing information acquired from customer contact points, including business cards, email signatures, and web form entries, enabling centralized management. Additionally, with more than 1 million items of corporate information preloaded, insights such as business type, number of employees, sales revenue, and job position can be used for sales and marketing initiatives. Integrating this data with external systems enables an even wider range of aims, like strengthening of corporate governance and risk management.

Bill One – Cloud-based invoice management for fast monthly closing

Bill One is an invoice management solution from Sansan, Inc. Through Bill One, corporate users can receive all invoices (paper or electronic), by post or email, and quickly and accurately digitize them for processing and approval. Its centralized, cloud-based management modernizes inefficient, analog practices. Bill One speeds up management’s decision-making and streamlines the monthly closing process.

Contract One – Build your contract database, maximize your business

Contract One is the contract database solution from Sansan, Inc. Using Sansan’s proprietary technology, users can digitize all company contracts with high accuracy. In the process, the company builds a comprehensive database of business transaction terms and conditions, leveraging contracts as corporate assets. Contract One's function for automatically associating related contracts gives a 360-degree view of the entire company's contract activity. Meanwhile, generative AI is applied to create an environment in which all employees, not just those in the legal department, can easily search for, check, and comprehend contract data. A contract database operating company-wide enhances risk management and helps maximize your business.
