WorkBuddy leads AI desktop app rankings in July, while Baidu Dazi shows 1063% growth

The overall market for artificial intelligence-based office applications in China reached 30 million monthly active users (MAU) among desktop PC clients in July 2026, according to the first AI product ranking from AICPB.

WorkBuddy from Tencent topped the overall ranking, demonstrating 11.15 million MAU and a growth of 304.4%. However, Baidu Dazi showed the highest growth rate, reaching 1063.79% with 6.74 million MAU, securing the top spot in the AI office agent growth ranking.

Other significant players include TraeWork from ByteDance with 2.66 million MAU and 51.08% growth. New market entrants include Qwen Office from Alibaba with 607,900 MAU, Nano Work with 227,300 MAU, and Lingxi from Kingsoft with 258,200 MAU by the end of July.

Baidu introduced Dazi in March, integrating Baidu Baike, Baidu Maps, MiaoDa, and cloud storage capabilities into the professional office agent platform. In July, this product achieved 6.74 million MAU with an impressive growth of 1063.79%.

Alibaba consolidated its Qwen Office by the end of July, incorporating Wukong, which was incubated by DingTalk, MuleRun, launched internally by Alibaba Cloud, and QoderWork. The total MAU figures for Qwen Office were 607,900, Wukong was 588,500, and QoderWork was 1.89 million.

Tencent significantly expanded support for its WorkBuddy by linking it with Tencent Docs, QQ Mail, Tencent Drive, and Tencent Meeting, enabling it to reach 11.15 million MAU and take the top spot overall with 304.40% growth.

ByteDance merged the Feishu product team into Doubao, launched task management features, and integrated Feishu Sheets with other office functionalities. Due to Doubao's strong positioning in entertainment, ByteDance is actively promoting TraeWork and Coze as AI office products; TraeWork has 2.66 million MAU with 51.08% growth, and Coze has 2.17 million with 62.23% growth.

Among other competitors are LobsterAI from NetEase Youdao with 511,100 MAU, Xiaohuanxiong from SenseTime with 379,700 MAU, easyclaw from Cheetah with 274,900 MAU, Lingxi Pro from Kingsoft with 258,200 MAU, Nano Work from 360 with 227,300 MAU, AutoClaw from Zhipu with 143,500 MAU, Loomy and AstronClaw from iFLYTEK with 7,400 and 1,400 MAU respectively, as well as krowork from Kuaishou with 3,000 MAU.

Although the ranking does not publish daily active user (DAU) data, it suggests an evaluation method: for good AI office products, DAU is approximately 0.2 of MAU. Since the total MAU in the AI office segment is only 30 million, compared to the scale of traditional office software, there remains at least a 20-fold potential for growth. This huge market potential indicates that competition in the AI office sector will intensify; given the dividends from the entry of 600 million monthly active AI users, no player can afford to ignore this market, as losing position could lead to the end of the AI era.

For end-users, the victory of any player brings practical benefits in the form of accelerated product updates and token discounts. The ranking notes that its data is based on publicly available information and has statistical limitations, and non-commercial citation must reference AICPB.
