Hi, I’m Kaito Shibayama, an entrepreneurial founder with 5+ years of hands-on experience building and scaling technology products from zero. I founded Anlimited Inc. in 2021 and led the creation of Union, a social platform for university communities, directing the product roadmap, UI/UX design, and an engineering team of up to four. I raised cumulative ¥35M from a VC firm and individual angels, and grew multiple social media accounts to a combined 120,000+ followers across X, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, producing content that resonates with Gen Z. I specialize in social media marketing, content creation, product management, and business development, leveraging generative AI (Claude, Antigravity, and other LLM tools) to power web services and content workflows. I enjoy turning bold ideas into scalable products and measurable impact, while navigating end-to-end startup operations, hiring, KPI tracking, and investor relations.
