THE ESSENTIALS
  • Tencent's executive reported WorkBuddy enterprise adoption across more than 50 industries.
  • The planned open architecture would support enterprise-built and third-party agents and messaging systems.

Adoption figures from Tencent

Tencent said WorkBuddy's enterprise edition has been deployed across more than 50 industries and reaches 50% of China's top 500 enterprises, IT Home reported on October 29. The figures were disclosed by senior executive vice president Tang Daosheng at Tencent's Global Digital Ecosystem Summit.

Tang also said the service reaches 60% of China's top 100 enterprises and has more than 50,000 platform partners and developers, with over 200,000 Skills listed. These are company-reported adoption measures, rather than an independently audited count of active usage.

Opening the architecture

Tencent said WorkBuddy, launched in March, has completed nine billion user task requests and gone through 100 major version updates in seven months, according to the report.

The company plans to open the product architecture to support agents developed by enterprises, third-party agents and connections to third-party instant-messaging systems. Tang said enterprises would retain choices over models, agents and messaging tools. The report does not specify a release timetable for the full opening or commercial terms for those integrations.
