DingTalk launches AI startup assistant to support startups in finance, taxation, legal affairs, and operations, and lower the threshold for entrepreneurship.

On August 25th, DingTalk launched the "AI Startup Assistant" at the "DingTalk's 10th Anniversary and AI DingTalk 1.0 New Product Launch Event". Targeting startups in their infancy, such as sole proprietorships, individual industrial and commercial households, and micro - enterprises, it provides one - stop startup support based on AI's intelligent Q&A capabilities in professional fields and the professional human services of DingTalk's enterprise service ecosystem.

"After starting a new business, especially in the early stages, there was no one to help me with many things. I later thought, if I were to start over, what could DingTalk do for startups?" said Chen Hang, the CEO of DingTalk. "This is an effort by DingTalk to return to its original mission. The AI Startup Assistant aims to deliver business results and help all startups achieve the goal of 'a one - person company'."

The AI Startup Assistant was co - created by DingTalk with over 100 entrepreneurs from various industries over more than four months. The first phase covers core startup management areas such as market research, finance and taxation, legal affairs, design, and social media operation. Each AI Startup Assistant serves as a digital employee for startups, with the full - fledged service capabilities of collecting requirements, analyzing problems, and solving problems, addressing the pain points of "lack of people, funds, and time" for entrepreneurs and enabling them to focus on the startup itself.

For example, when it comes to the most troublesome business registration issue in startups, the finance and taxation assistant can proactively follow up on the required business registration materials. After collection, DingTalk's service providers will handle the offline procedures. When a startup needs to sign a contract for the first time, the legal assistant can help review each contract clause, identify contract risks, and provide revision suggestions. The processed contracts will also be reviewed by professional lawyers from legal protection networks and law firms, giving entrepreneurs peace of mind. In the past, building a company's official website often required a professional development team to spend months. Now, with the social media operation assistant, a professional official website can be generated in an hour, and the independent domain name deployment can be completed manually in the background.

Hangzhou Changshi Technology Co., Ltd. is a professional company focusing on traffic operation. Its business is to empower African outbound tourism brands through integrated marketing. As a small startup with only six employees, Changshi Technology's main customer acquisition channel is social media. Previously, it could only rely on two new media operators to generate topic content for customer acquisition, with an average of 10 articles per person per day. After using the "Social Media Operation Assistant", this AI startup assistant can automatically capture, collect, analyze, and rewrite social media content according to business needs. One person can now complete the work of two people, saving a lot of time for new media operators.

Hangzhou Tianshengbufan Education Technology Co., Ltd., established in 2022, focuses on providing consulting services for AI - enabled enterprise performance growth. Since its establishment three years ago, the company has always wanted to build its own official website to better showcase the company's situation and business. They also consulted an outsourced technology company, but the nearly ten - thousand - yuan quote made them hesitant. Meanwhile, the communication cost was high, taking nearly a week back and forth, and it would take a month from planning to the official website launch. With the help of the AI Startup Assistant, they built the desired official website in less than two days at a cost of less than a thousand yuan.

Zhuhai Qiandao Technology is an internet new - retail company, and its representative product is the Cuixiaoai self - service vending cabinet. As the company's business develops rapidly, the number of upstream and downstream contracts has increased. In the past, relying on legal professionals to manually review contracts was not only time - consuming, but also the review standards of different legal personnel varied, making it difficult to ensure the consistency of review quality. After using the legal assistant, Zhuhai Qiandao Technology can quickly review contracts in a few minutes. Complex contracts are then reviewed by the company's legal department. The contract review time has been shortened from hours or even days to just a few minutes, greatly accelerating business progress and improving the efficiency of the company's legal work. Moreover, the company can now quickly get answers to legal questions anytime and anywhere, saving a lot of consulting costs.

The AI Startup Assistant is DingTalk's answer to how to help startups and entrepreneurs in the AI era. It is not just an innovation at the tool level but also brings about the popularization of technology, promoting the reduction of the startup threshold and trial - and - error costs. Empowered by AI, the "one - person company" is no longer an unattainable dream. Every tiny startup dream can take root and thrive in the fertile soil of AI.
