Alibaba's Qianwen Office Launches Public Beta, Integrates DingTalk, Plans Standalone and International App

On August 3, 2026, Alibaba Group officially launched the public beta of its enterprise-level Agent product, Qianwen Office, accessible to both individual and enterprise users via the official website. The product is a comprehensive integration of three existing products: QoderWork, MuleRun, and Wukong, which will no longer exist independently, with all relevant personnel transitioning into the Qianwen Office system. The former Wukong business unit has been upgraded to the Qianwen Office business unit, becoming a first-level business unit under the Alibaba Token Hub (ATH) business group, managed by Chen Yusen, the newly appointed chief executive of DingTalk.

Qianwen Office is positioned as a one-stop AI office platform. Once a user describes a goal, the Agent can break down tasks, invoke tools, and deliver directly usable file results. The product is also the first in the industry to simultaneously support desktop Agent, cloud Agent, and enterprise collaboration Agent.

Qianwen Office has preliminarily integrated with DingTalk and will connect to enterprise real data flows and workflows in the future. The product merges three capability tracks: the desktop track inherits local file and computer operation capabilities; the cloud track handles long tasks, resource scheduling, and multimodal generation; the enterprise track enters organizational identity, permissions, and business systems. Alibaba stated that Qianwen Office will launch more new features designed for enterprises, including a standalone app and an international edition, enabling multi-device connectivity.

Previously, on March 17, Wukong was launched as an enterprise-level AI-native work platform, prompting DingTalk to undergo a comprehensive CLI transformation, converting capabilities such as approvals, scheduling, communications, and documents into interfaces directly callable by Agents.

During the same period, other internet companies undertook similar product integrations. On July 20, Tencent merged its QClaw product center into WorkBuddy's cloud product department. On July 30, ByteDance's Feishu product team merged with the Doubao product team to form a new Doubao product team; the Feishu GTM team combined with the Volcano Engine team to create a unified To B organization responsible for MaaS and SaaS sales and services.

On August 3, Alibaba also released its next-generation base model Qwen3.8, with a total parameter count of 2.4 trillion, significantly improving capabilities in programming and professional office tasks. The Qianwen large model and Qianwen Office are deeply coordinated and optimized, providing underlying model support for enterprises.

In international markets, MuleRun has served enterprises and users in 43 countries and regions since May 2026, with users paying over USD 200 per month accounting for 34% of the total.

Industry data shows that in June 2026, the combined traffic of 17 mainstream desktop AI office agents exceeded 60 million visits. Microsoft 365 Copilot had over 30 million paid seats as of the end of June 2026, while Claude Code had an annual recurring revenue exceeding USD 2.5 billion as of February 2026.
