WorkBuddy Daily Active Users Exceed 13 Million, Tencent Accelerates Commercialization

Tencent's AI-native desktop intelligent agent platform, WorkBuddy, was publicly launched on March 9. Within three months, it achieved a monthly active user count of 20 million across all platforms, with daily active users surpassing 13 million. Among these, the PC version has over 2 million daily active users, and the DAU/MAU ratio remains stable between 65% and 75%. The product is overseen by Liu Yi, Vice President of Tencent Cloud, with a core team of about 100 people, and is classified as one of the highest priority AI projects internally. WorkBuddy evolved from Tencent's AI programming assistant, CodeBuddy, which has already been adopted by approximately 12,000 engineers within Tencent. The product completed its prototype development on January 17 and has undergone 43 iterations since the public beta in March, gradually integrating capabilities related to QClaw developed by the Tencent PC Manager team based on an open-source framework. In terms of commercialization, Tencent Cloud adjusted its pricing at the end of April: the SaaS enterprise version increased from 78 RMB per person per month to 198 RMB, and the private cloud enterprise version rose from 158 RMB to 316 RMB. Market information indicates that it has acquired thousands of enterprise clients and over 100,000 paid seats, with an estimated annual revenue of around 300 million RMB. Third-party evaluations show that the product scored an average of 2.31 out of 4 across 70 questions, indicating that it still has a distance to cover before achieving stable output without manual modifications.
