Analysis highlighted that, according to the annual report, the company is continuously advancing the implementation of marketing scenarios centered around AI-native applications. This strategy is shifting its business from traditional SaaS services towards an AI-native application platform.

This shift encourages clients to move from purchasing software tools to procuring comprehensive solutions. Consequently, the pricing model has expanded from simple subscriptions to include performance-based and usage-based billing, implementing a token-consumption business model that creates a deeper alignment of interests with clients.
