PureblueAI hat eine Angel-Runde-Finanzierung im Wert von mehreren Millionen Yuan abgeschlossen und seinen ersten digitalen Mitarbeiter für AI-Reputationsmarketing vorgestellt.
36Kr has learned that the Chinese AI marketing technology service company "PureblueAI Qinglan" has officially announced the completion of an angel round of financing worth several million yuan. This financing round was led by Vertex China, while the old shareholders Innoangel Fund, Yicun Songling, and 36Kr also participated in the investment.
The funds from this financing round will mainly be used for the development of new products and technological iteration, the expansion of industry ecosystems, and business development. At the same time, the company will continue to cooperate with investors and ecosystem partners to create outstanding solutions in the field of AI word - of - mouth marketing and help enterprises achieve stable growth in the era of artificial intelligence.
36Kr has already reported on PureblueAI Qinglan. The company was founded in 2025, and the members of the founding team are graduates of Tsinghua University, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and other well - known universities. They were formerly senior employees and technology experts of companies such as ByteDance and Alibaba.
Previously, in August 2025, PureblueAI Qinglan received more than one million yuan in a seed round led jointly by Innoangel Fund and BlueFocus, with the participation of the Tsinghua University Alumni Seed Fund.
PureblueAI Qinglan relies on its self - developed hybrid model architectures, optimization algorithms, and the Digital Employee Platform. With the help of the advanced Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) technology, it helps enterprises improve the AI recommendation rate and the influence of their brands. Currently, Qinglan already has many leading enterprises from industries such as automotive, finance, Internet technology, retail, consumer goods, and healthcare as its customers.
PureblueAI Qinglan has also introduced its AI marketing Digital Employee Platform mkter.ai and launched the first AI word - of - mouth marketing Digital Employee "Mark" into the market. He serves as an exclusive "AI brand recommendation officer" for enterprises.
Mark is based on Qinglan's self - developed GEO model algorithms and multi - agent architecture. He can provide enterprises with a comprehensive, intelligent, and quantifiable AI word - of - mouth marketing service.

In contrast to traditional marketing SaaS tools, Mark can cover the entire process of AI word - of - mouth marketing from user intention research to result monitoring and optimization, including the diagnosis, implementation, and post - processing phases.
Mark can also meet a variety of requirements, such as self - management for small and medium - sized enterprises, customized services for large enterprises, and cooperation with marketing service providers. At the same time, it is compatible with mainstream AI platforms such as Doubao, DeepSeek, Qianwen, and Yuanbao.
Within the entire GEO process, Mark can offer six core competencies to realize an intelligent, closed - loop in AI word - of - mouth marketing: Professional intention research to identify the needs of high - conversion - rate users; Output of comprehensive optimization solutions based on multi - dimensional brand analysis; Rapid creation of an exclusive knowledge base to generate trustworthy content; Accurate prediction of results to ensure the value of placement in advance; Intelligent publication on various platforms to find high - weight and trustworthy information sources; Real - time monitoring of results to enable 7×24 - hour dynamic analysis.

Both the AI marketing Digital Employee Platform mkter.ai and the AI word - of - mouth marketing Digital Employee "Mark" are based on Qinglan's self - developed hybrid model architectures and optimization algorithms. With the help of the advanced Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) technology, they help enterprises improve the AI recommendation rate and the influence of their brands.
These capabilities enable the agent to learn the recommendation rules of AI platforms and replace the previous manual process of "guessing" platform placement.
In the process, PureblueAI Qinglan's system continuously analyzes the content that is successfully recommended in AI searches to find the common "characteristics" of this content for the model. In this way, the model knows which content structures and features receive higher credibility and weight on the AI platform to guide the content generation strategy and the monitoring of model feedback for enterprise customers.
For example, when a customer makes an optimization request (such as optimizing the search query "Recommendation of vehicles with hybrid architecture"), PureblueAI Qinglan's model not only generates a marketing text but also calculates the platform combination with the highest weight for publication.
Since the emergence of DeepSeek, GEO has become a popular startup direction, but the technology is still in its infancy. In addition to the rapid development of its products, PureblueAI Qinglan, under the leadership of the China Business Advertising Association, together with 13 other companies, has released the "Chinese Initiative for the Development of the GEO Industry". In February 2026, it, together with 10 other industry partners, including the China Artificial Intelligence Industry Development Alliance (AIIA), signed the "Pledge for Artificial Intelligence Security: Special Measures for Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)". In addition, PureblueAI Qinglan has participated in the formulation and determination of industry standards such as the "Basic Requirements for the Trustworthiness of GEO Services" of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology.
