汤道生谈WorkBuddy商业化：不靠收入数字催团队

Tencent is integrating more office capabilities into WorkBuddy. On October 29, at the 2026 Tencent Global Digital Ecosystem Conference, Tencent released Buddy One, a cross-application office collaboration system, which connects products such as Tencent documents, Tencent meetings, ima, and Tencent cloud drives, and promotes the interoperability of accounts, AI points, and some service rights. WorkBuddy will also further open up its product architecture to support access to enterprise self-developed agents, third-party agents and third-party communication systems. In June this year, Tang Daosheng, senior executive vice president of Tencent Group and CEO of the cloud and smart industry group, said that he would not set commercialization goals for the WorkBuddy team for the time being. At this conference, when Smart Emergence once again asked questions about commercialization, Tang Daosheng did not give a specific number. Tang Daosheng was interviewed. "Today's commercialization of WorkBuddy, I think, is more from the perspective of supporting the development of this product and service. It does not mean that a certain number is given and the team is forced to complete it." Tang Daosheng answered. He went on to explain that some of the third-party partners introduced by Tencent specialize in providing FDE services to customers, that is, engineering personnel go deep into the enterprise to participate in deployment and process transformation. "They also need a business model, and they can't work for free." The expansion of customer scale has also brought cost pressure on continued services. When talking about the needs of enterprises in terms of security, observability and management, Tang Daosheng said: "A little income is mainly to make this thing develop better." After this conference, WorkBuddy's product integration and commercialization will be promoted at the same time. The former needs to solve the problem of how to connect office applications, enterprise data and third-party capabilities, while the latter needs to solve the investment in customer landing and continuous services in addition to subscription fees. 01 Integration of office capabilities, product entrance remains. The main function of the newly released Buddy One is to connect materials and tools in different applications, supporting WorkBuddy to retrieve and integrate documents, meeting minutes and knowledge base content within the scope of authorization; Tencent documents, ima, Tencent network disk and other products also share WorkBuddy's Age
