Omotenashi, Seamlessly Delivered
Takumo bridges Japan’s trusted takuhaibin tradition with the digital future of hospitality—helping hotels and ryokans save time and focus on what matters most: their guests.
Takuhaibin, modernized
Today’s luggage forwarding still depends on handwritten forms, phone bookings and multi-copy slips—costly for staff and confusing for guests.
Takumo simplifies the same trusted flow into one seamless digital process: staff prefill and print a single carrier-compliant label, while travelers receive instant bilingual updates.
The tradition of omotenashi remains; the paperwork disappears.
Built for the Pace of Modern Hospitality
Takumo integrates people, systems, and carriers into one smooth flow—so excellence feels effortless and every minute spent delivers more value.
Streamlined Staff Experience
Fewer forms, faster handoffs. Takumo pre-fills guest and room details, books pickups and prints labels in seconds—so your team can focus on guests, not paperwork.
Enhanced Guest Journey
Guests stay informed every step of the way through simple, bilingual updates and digital passes that replace confusion with confidence.
Seamless Integrations
