hot_img Alibaba plans to charge revenue sharing from commercial customers of open-source AI models, emulating the Kimi K3 model of the Dark Side of the Moon

According to Reuters, Alibaba plans to require its next-generation Qwen open-source AI model's heavy commercial users to share a portion of their revenue with it. This initiative is similar to the approach taken by Moonlight Dark Side with Kimi K3: the licensing terms for Kimi K3 stipulate that if the model is sold as a service and the annual revenue exceeds $20 million, a commercial agreement must be negotiated with Moonlight Dark Side, with reports suggesting a revenue-sharing ratio of up to 30%. The specific revenue-sharing ratio for Alibaba is still under discussion.The report points out that such revenue-sharing agreements have gradually taken shape between Chinese AI companies and American cloud platforms. Several American cloud providers, including DigitalOcean, have signed commercial agreements with Moonlight Dark Side. In terms of pricing, the input/output token price for Kimi K3 is about one-third that of the Anthropic Fable model. Additionally, Thinking Machines Lab, founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, has also joined the open-source camp and released its first open-source model last month. This move signifies that Chinese AI companies are exploring sustainable commercialization paths on open-source models through a "free open-source + commercial charging" freemium model.

hot_img Alibaba integrates QoderWork, Wukong, and MuleRun to establish "Qianwen Office," positioning it as an enterprise-level AI office platform

According to exclusive reports from Huxiu, Alibaba has internally regarded "AI Office" as one of its strategic directions and has completed the integration of organization and products: the original Wukong Business Unit has been upgraded to "Qwen Office Business Unit," led by Chen Yusen, combining the three products QoderWork, Wukong, and MuleRun into Qwen Office (QwenWork), with the three products and teams no longer existing separately. Qwen Office began public testing on August 3, with the web version and PC client now available, and the DingTalk entry will be launched soon. On the same day, Alibaba released the Qwen3.8 model, enhancing Coding and Cowork capabilities.Alibaba positions Qwen Office as a "enterprise-level AI productivity platform aimed at corporate organizations," rather than a personal office tool, and will not focus on user numbers and monthly active users as core assessment targets in the short term, instead concentrating on product experience and enterprise scenario implementation. The Qwen Office Business Unit is also responsible for DingTalk, intending to leverage the million-level enterprise customer resources accumulated by DingTalk. According to data analysis from Analysys, in June, the desktop access volume of AI office intelligent agents was led by Tencent WorkBuddy with approximately 20.97 million visits, followed by Byte's TRAE IDE with about 12.79 million, and Alibaba's QoderWork with around 7.88 million (Wukong had an additional 1.31 million visits). This integration is viewed internally as a key step to catch up with Tencent and Byte. Following the news, Alibaba's Hong Kong stock rose by over 7% on August 3.
