About anne.

anne [an-neh] (安音, pronounced "an-neh") is a back-office SaaS for babysitting and housekeeping service providers. It centralizes customer (household) profiles, bookings, work (visit) history, contact history, invoice downloads, and master data (branches, service types), making handoffs and daily coordination smoother.

Benefits for Business Owners

Standardize operations and handoffs

Keep customers, bookings, and histories in one place to reduce dependence on specific individuals.

Prevent missed or duplicated work

List and calendar views plus traceable histories help teams avoid overlaps and follow up reliably.

Control access with security and roles

Role-based permissions and two-factor authentication help protect operational data.

Benefits for Admins & Supervisors

See bookings and workload clearly

Bookings, calendars, and visit histories provide an at-a-glance view of operations.

Reduce misses with AI alerts

AI flags “needs attention” and “recommended for internal sharing” to help surface important handoffs and complaints.

Unify operations with master data

Branch and service-type masters reduce inconsistency and improve operational quality.

Get a bird’s-eye view of visit/contact histories

Review visit-history and contact-history lists side by side to spot gaps faster and prioritize follow-up.

Benefits for Coordinators & Field Staff

Find the right context fast

Household profiles are linked to bookings and histories, reducing time spent searching.

Trace history across handoffs

Visit and contact histories help staff respond consistently even when assignees change.

Use AI suggestions for assignments

AI staff suggestions provide a first pass for assignment decisions.

Security-Conscious Design

Role-based Permissions

Control what each staff member can see and do, based on their role.

No AI Training

Operational data is never used for AI training.

Database Encryption

We protect important operational data and reduce risk through secure storage.

Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication (TOTP) is supported. Trusted devices can also be used to reduce login friction.

Access Protection

Measures such as lockouts on repeated failures help reduce unauthorized access risk.

How to Use

Centralize customers, bookings, and histories to streamline daily operations.

1

Register Customers (Households)

Start by registering household profiles, contacts, and requests. This becomes the hub for bookings and histories.

Jump from a customer profile to bookings, visit history, and contact history
2

Set up staff and master data

Register staff accounts, then set up branches and service types (babysitting/housekeeping). This reduces inconsistency and standardizes operations.

Preparing masters first makes booking input faster and more consistent
3

Create bookings and check the schedule

Create bookings and review them in both list and calendar views. Plan daily and weekly workload and make adjustments as needed.

Use search and filters to find the right booking quickly
Role-based permissions control what users can see and do
Trusted devices help reduce repeated 2FA prompts for staff
4

Get AI staff suggestions(Optional)

Run AI staff suggestions from a booking to get candidate assignees. Use it as a starting point for assignment decisions.

AI helps with the first pass when assignments are tricky
5

Keep histories and handle billing

Record visit history and contact history for traceability. Download invoices for a period to streamline billing work.

6

Export reports and share

Export municipality/guardian/internal visit reports in PDF or Word from each visit history and use them for submission and internal sharing.

Choose the best output format for the destination and reduce transfer/submission effort

Simple Workflow

In daily operations, repeat Steps 1–3 to manage customers and bookings. Use Step 4 when you want AI suggestions, keep traceable context in Step 5, and use Step 6 to export reports when needed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pricing

Q. Why is there an initial setup fee of ¥68,750 (JPY) (tax included)?

A. It covers the setup work to build a dedicated tenant environment for your organization (including domain and security configuration). We also share important notes online and provide initial onboarding support (1–2 sessions).

Q. How are fees calculated if I start or terminate in the middle of a month?

A. The basic usage fee is prorated based on the number of days you actually use the service in that month, using the monthly fee of ¥57,750 (JPY) divided by the number of days in the month (timezone fixed to Japan Standard Time, JST). Consultation history usage fees are calculated based on the number of consultation records registered during the chargeable period.
