MakeLeaps careers
MakeLeaps is the leading provider of online invoicing software in Japan.
Our current target market is Japanese businesses. We started with freelancers, but now we are fielding regular sales calls from Enterprises.
In Japan, sending invoices is a manual and laborious process done with Microsoft Excel, printers, overworked accounting staff, and physically sending by post.
We have built a platform perfectly suited to the unique requirements of the Japanese market, right when Japan is opening up to using cloud solutions for business processes. We have strong traction, an experienced team, a well-known brand in Japan, and many famous and well known customers using our software, including Rakuten (the Japanese version of Amazon).
If this trend continues, in 5 years from now, a majority of Japan's affluent 5 million businesses will be using cloud solutions for their invoicing requirements, and we are in pole position to be the winner of this space first in Japan, and then in Asia.
