What happened
株式会社Ikigai said on 2026年10月30日 it will start a service covering ChatGPT ads, SEO and LLMO together, promising SEO/LLMO work at half the current monthly fee for clients paying 月額30万円以上 with 月30本以内 of articles.
Why it matters
The half-price pledge is tied to the client's existing quote or invoice, so a company already outsourcing SEO/LLMO at 月額30万円以上 with 月30本以内 of articles could shrink that line item without cutting article volume or scope.
What to watch
The service starts 2026年10月30日, and the company says it will reply within 2 business days with whether a quote qualifies and an estimated monthly price.
WHO IT HITSMarketing and procurement managers at Japanese companies that already outsource SEO/LLMO at 月額30万円以上 with 月30本以内 of articles are the target, since they can compare their current quote directly against the half-price offer.
Summaries like this, every morning.
株式会社Ikigai is positioning the new service at companies that already buy SEO and LLMO (AI search optimization) as separate or bundled outside work. The company says it will treat SEO and LLMO as the same content design and improvement task, and it plans to lower costs by using AI for drafting and for compiling reports, while keeping human checks on facts, proper nouns, numbers and legal expressions before publication.
The half-price pledge is narrowly defined: it applies to SEO/LLMO work with a monthly fee of 月額30万円以上 and article production of 月30本以内, and the benchmark is the client's existing quote or invoice for the same scope. The company lists exclusions such as more than 月30本 of articles per month, contracts centered on articles longer than 1万字 each, multilingual sites, sites over 10万ページ, and contracts that include system development. The service also includes a 30-day trial of ChatGPT advertising support, which can be requested on its own.
To support its quality claims, the company cites its own media site, run with AI drafts and human finishing: 1,716万回 of search impressions over the last 12 months, 1,914 keywords with an average position within 1.5位 and 11,706 within 3.5位 over the last 90 days, and 911 pages with search traffic over the last 90 days. It says the switch can be completed within 3 weeks of sending a quote, with the start date set to the month the current contract ends.
