On October 29, the 2026 Tencent Global Digital Ecosystem Summit was held in Shenzhen. This year's summit, themed "Collective Intelligence Collaboration, Data-Driven Flywheel: Unleashing Full-Scenario Productivity," focused on the large-scale industrial deployment of AI agents. At the main forum, Tencent Cloud, together with 22 ecosystem partners, announced the "AI Ecosystem Co-Creation Initiative," with participating partners spanning model, software, hardware, and FDE delivery services.
Weimob Inc (2013.HK) was selected for this initiative and became one of Tencent's (00700.HK) important partners in its AI ecosystem. Against the backdrop of AI technology accelerating from capability innovation toward commercial application, participating in Tencent's AI Ecosystem Co-Creation Initiative represents another milestone in Weimob's continued deepening of its AI strategy and expansion of industrial ecosystem collaboration.
Leveraging its industry accumulation in smart retail, digital marketing, and enterprise services, Weimob is accelerating the integration of AI technology with business operation scenarios, forming a collaborative layout across three business lines: AI+SaaS, AI+Marketing, and AI-native applications, exploring new pathways for large-scale AI deployment and commercial value conversion.
Xiao Feng, Vice President of Technology at Weimob Group, stated: "Ecosystem collaboration with Tencent has opened a more certain commercialization channel for Weimob. One end connects to Tencent's agent ecosystem and traffic entry points, while the other connects to Weimob's AI-native capabilities in retail e-commerce scenarios. Weimob's AI business has already produced a verifiable revenue curve: AI application revenue reached 133 million yuan in the first half of 2026, surpassing the full year of 2025. We are transforming over a decade of retail know-how into reusable, billable AI capabilities. Ecosystem collaboration with Tencent and AI revenue validation 鈥?these are the foundations for Weimob's current round of value reassessment."
Ecosystem Positioning: Weimob Selected for Tencent's AI Ecosystem Co-Creation Initiative, Becoming the Retail E-Commerce Industry Brain
As AI enters the deep waters of industrial deployment, what matters is no longer the model itself, but who can engineer industry know-how into real business scenarios. At the main forum, Tencent Cloud and 22 AI ecosystem partners jointly participated in the launch of this AI Ecosystem Co-Creation Initiative, covering multiple industry partners across model, hardware, software, and FDE delivery service domains.
Among them, Weimob Group attended as a digital commerce service provider deeply rooted in retail e-commerce. The model ecosystem includes leading large model companies such as Moonshot AI's Kimi, MiniMax, and StepFun; the hardware ecosystem includes terminal manufacturers such as Anker Innovations and ASUS; the software ecosystem includes vertical domain service providers such as Kingdee Software; and the FDE delivery service ecosystem includes professional service organizations such as KPMG. (Xiao Feng, Vice President of Technology at Weimob Group, participated in the launch of this AI Ecosystem Co-Creation Initiative.)
Behind this lies Tencent's judgment on the stage of the AI industry. Model capabilities are rapidly being commoditized, and what is truly scarce is industry know-how and deployment capability. Weimob's scarcity lies precisely in retail 鈥?the scenario where AI deployment is most difficult and most requires engineering capability.
Among software ecosystem partners, Weimob is one of the few service providers focused on full-chain retail operation scenarios. Weimob has deep roots in retail e-commerce and digital marketing scenarios, accumulating core scenario experience in product management, membership operations, marketing planning, and business analysis around brand merchants' intelligent operation needs. This industry know-how relies on long-term accumulation from deep frontline service to clients.
This also explains the division of labor in this AI ecosystem collaboration 鈥?Tencent provides the infrastructure and "engineering scaffolding" for AI agents, while Weimob provides industry-specific knowledge and experience, becoming its "retail e-commerce industry brain."
Commercial Validation: Three Major AI Business Lines Collaborate, AI Revenue of 133 Million Yuan Surpasses Full Year 2025
Behind the continued advancement of AI ecosystem collaboration with Tencent is Weimob's deepening AI strategy and industrial deployment. Weimob's 2026 interim results show that AI application revenue reached 133 million yuan in the first half, a year-on-year increase of 89.2%, already surpassing the full year 2025 AI revenue. During the same period, total group revenue reached 869 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 12.1%, with adjusted net profit positive.
The growth in AI application revenue indicates that Weimob is continuously driving AI from technology investment and product upgrades toward commercial deployment. Around AI and merchant operation scenarios, Weimob has gradually formed three mutually collaborative business pathways: reconstructing SaaS products through AI, upgrading digital marketing business through AI, and opening new market demands with AI-native applications. The three business lines share technical capabilities and industry experience, constituting an important foundation for Weimob's AI commercialization advancement.
On the "AI+SaaS" fundamental base, Weimob reshapes merchant operation experiences with agents. Weimob Xingyuan, upgraded from the original WAI product, uses an "Agent+Skill" architecture to consolidate professional capabilities in product management, business analysis, customer operations, and marketing planning into callable Skills. Merchants can propose business goals through natural language, and the system breaks down tasks, invokes corresponding capabilities, and assists in completing operational work. In the second quarter of 2026, the number of merchants in Weimob Xingyuan's business analysis scenario increased by 102.7% compared to the first quarter, and the number of merchants in the customer operations scenario increased by 53.7%, reflecting that AI is gradually integrating into merchants' daily operational processes.
In the "AI+Marketing" business segment, Weimob drives intelligentization across the entire marketing chain through self-developed AI systems. Around marketing strategy, ad placement, creative production, operational analysis, risk review, and influencer selection, it has built products including Tianshu, Tianqi, Tianji, Tiangong, Tianquan, and Tianxuan, embedding AI capabilities into key nodes of the marketing business. According to Weimob's 2026 interim report, Tianshu reduced knowledge retrieval time by 90%, Tianqi improved ad setup efficiency by 85%, Tianji achieved a 70% reduction in creative costs, Tiangong improved analysis and diagnosis efficiency by 60%, and Tianquan increased review and re-inspection accuracy by 90%. In the first half of 2026, Weimob's precision marketing revenue reached 408 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 20.9%, providing a business foundation for further integration of AI and marketing businesses.
Beyond reshaping the existing market with AI, Weimob has also launched a full set of "AI-native" product matrix to expand incremental markets. Around scenarios such as B2B sales prospecting, AI creative production, and generative engine optimization (GEO), it has deployed multiple AI-native products including Xintuo, Xingchuang WIMO, and Xingqi GEO. Among them, Xingqi GEO addresses brand visibility and credibility needs in the AI search era, Xintuo focuses on sales prospecting automation, and Xingchuang provides AI creative production capabilities. Such AI-native products share Weimob's technical accumulation in model scheduling, scenario-based templates, standardized Skills, and multi-agent collaboration, supporting capability reuse and continuous iteration.
The three business lines share the same AI technology foundation and industry capability accumulation. By consolidating industry experience into reusable AI capabilities, Weimob can both drive intelligent upgrading of existing businesses and support continuous iteration of AI-native products with a unified technology foundation, forming a product system oriented toward different customers and application scenarios.
Value Symbiosis: Three-Layer Collaboration Deepens Progressively, Opening Long-Term AI Value Space
As one of Tencent's most important ecosystem partners, Weimob's AI collaboration with Tencent is deepening layer by layer along "ecosystem co-creation 鈥?solution delivery 鈥?application entry points": from joining Tencent's AI Ecosystem Co-Creation Initiative and entering its AI ecosystem "circle of friends," to participating in the co-creation of ADP enterprise-level agent FDE solutions, to the actual deployment of Weimob Buddy application on WorkBuddy.
The three layers of collaboration progress layer by layer, outlining a complete pathway from underlying ecosystem co-creation to front-end application entry points, also confirming that the cooperation between the two parties is moving from "ecosystem connection" toward "value symbiosis."
At the ecosystem layer, Weimob joined Tencent's AI Ecosystem Co-Creation Initiative, with its retail industry capabilities incorporated into the official collaboration system of Tencent's agent ecosystem. Weimob's scenario-based experience and industry knowledge accumulated from long-term service to retail, e-commerce, and brand merchants can provide support for AI understanding of business operation scenarios.
At the industry layer, Weimob will also participate in the co-creation cooperation of Tencent Cloud's ADP enterprise-level agent FDE solutions. The FDE (Forward Deployed Engineer) model focuses on the "last mile" deployment problem of enterprise AI, namely connecting agents to customers' real business systems and producing assessable results. Weimob's concurrently launched "Xingcheng" FDE service is highly aligned in logic with Tencent's ADP: Tencent provides the development and governance platform, while Weimob provides on-site delivery and continuous operations. This layer of collaboration extends Weimob's AI capabilities from products to a delivery closed loop.
At the application layer, Weimob and Tencent WorkBuddy have already begun cooperation. On September 2, the Tencent WorkBuddy open platform was officially launched, and Weimob, as one of the first batch of ecosystem partners, simultaneously launched the Weimob Buddy application, integrating four major modules 鈥?business diagnosis, mall operations, customer operations, and store guide 鈥?along with 16 standardized Skills and 48 practice cases into the WorkBuddy execution framework. Among them, WorkBuddy provides the AI workbench and task execution capabilities, while Weimob Buddy transforms professional knowledge and operational processes in retail operations into callable business capabilities. Merchants can submit requests through natural language and complete tasks with the help of corresponding Skills.
From ecosystem co-creation to enterprise-level FDE delivery solutions, and then to WorkBuddy applications, Weimob's collaboration with Tencent presents a multi-layered layout. This provides Weimob with broad development prospects.
At the application entry level, Weimob's retail operation capabilities have the opportunity to reach incremental merchant groups through agent products like WorkBuddy, significantly lowering the usage threshold for merchants; at the commercial delivery level, introducing the FDE delivery model is expected to extend Weimob's AI revenue structure from software subscriptions toward performance-based payment; at the ecosystem level, as agents gradually become the entry point for enterprise operations, service providers like Weimob that possess industry know-how, have callable Skill asset libraries, and can distribute capabilities across multiple AI ecosystems will play a more important role in the AI industry's value conversion process.
Conclusion
Participating in Tencent's AI Ecosystem Co-Creation Initiative and continuously deepening business collaboration with Tencent's ecosystem is an important step in Weimob's deepening AI strategy. Weimob's Skill assets and engineered delivery capabilities accumulated in retail scenarios are gaining broader deployment scenarios through Tencent's agent ecosystem; and the continuous volume growth of AI application revenue also provides commercial validation for this collaborative pathway. Looking ahead, Weimob will continue to drive deep integration of AI technology, industry knowledge, and product applications, exploring a sustainable and measurable AI commercialization pathway while helping enterprises achieve intelligent upgrading.
