Driven by artificial intelligence technology, global industries are undergoing a transformation. AI Agent, as an emerging technological trend, has begun to shine in multiple sectors.

Many tech giants are expanding the applications of AI Agents, and SaaS company WEIMOB INC is no exception. WEIMOB INC CEO Sun Taoyong mentioned at a technology open day: "The new Agentic AI era has arrived, and all SaaS can be rewritten with AI."

As one of the important development trends in the AI field, AI Agents possess the ability to think independently, make autonomous decisions, and reflect and iterate, providing precise business support for enterprises in complex market environments.

Leading figure in the field of artificial intelligence, Andrew Ng, pointed out that AI Agent workflows will drive significant advancements in artificial intelligence this year, potentially surpassing the next generation of foundational models.

In Sun Taoyong's view, the working method of AI Agents is closer to the human problem-solving thought process, which not only enhances execution efficiency but is also expected to bring more innovative possibilities to enterprises.

WEIMOB INC also launched an intelligent efficiency-enhancing tool called WEIMOB WIME aimed at small and micro e-commerce enterprises and individual operators and designers. Unlike the previously released WAI Pro, which targets the B-end and provides enterprise-level personalized AI application solutions, WIME is aimed at the TOC market.

WEIMOB INC's AI head Qiu Haoping introduced that WIME has advantages such as "high AI application concentration, scenario focus, and high satisfaction rate." Specifically, WIME possesses multimodal creation capabilities, providing full-link efficiency enhancement from commercial shooting, material design to marketing promotion.

From the perspective of its unique features, WIME offers a vast array of industry templates for core e-commerce operation scenarios, allowing users to use them with one click. Additionally, WIME has an AI function for "image imitation," covering multiple scenarios including image generation from images, text generation from images, and text generation from text.

According to Wall Street News, since its launch just two months ago, WIME's user registration has increased by 149% month-on-month in September, and the paid rate has increased by 160% month-on-month.

Currently, under the accelerated global AI technology competition, Agentic AI is continuously penetrating various industries. Gartner predicts that Agentic AI will rank first among the top ten strategic technology trends in 2025, and by 2028, 15% of daily decisions will be made autonomously by AI Agents. Agentic AI may become the next disruptive technological wave.

Despite the enormous potential of AI Agents, many applications still lean towards entertainment, such as recognizing objects through smartphone photography or identifying image content through drawing. While these applications showcase the possibilities of AI technology, their practical business applications remain limited.

On one hand, some believe that there is a bubble in the AI industry, and many companies may not survive; on the other hand, the development of AI Agents is still in a very early stage, requiring more technological advancements and market maturity.

However, Qiu Haoping believes that AI Agents are far from being in a bubble stage, and the materialization of AI is the key to determining whether its development is bubble-like In her view, many AI agents currently have a small scale and limited functions, and have not yet been widely applied in actual operations. Only when these agents are concretized and presented to everyone can their value and impact be truly assessed; their potential may currently be underestimated.

Qiu Haoping told Wall Street News that one of Weimob's main advantages lies in closely following the development trend of AI technology, not just using AI, but engaging in in-depth discussions and practical applications. Therefore, Agentic AI has also become an important exploration direction for Weimob's AI applications.

As of now, Weimob has connected with over 10 large models, including Tencent's Hunyuan and Zhipu GLM, initially forming a matrix of 15 AI Agents covering industries such as home decoration, finance, education, and tourism.

"In the next 10 years, AI will completely change our work and lifestyle, and every enterprise will have 'digital employees' in the form of Agents." Sun Taoyong cited Claude 3.5 Sonnet and Zhipu AutoGLM as examples, pointing out that AI can now operate relatively complex computers and mobile phones to perform professional tasks like a human.

Taking the e-commerce industry as an example, the application of AI Agents will fundamentally change traditional operating models. Through AI Agents, merchants can achieve one-click product listing, store decoration, and marketing promotion, improving work efficiency. In addition, AI Agents can also assist merchants in personalized recommendations and customer relationship management, enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Sun Taoyong introduced that after the launch of AI Agents in July 2024, the monthly active customers of Weimob's WAI SaaS version increased by 74% month-on-month, and the accuracy rate of WAI Assistant's system Q&A reached 82.5%. Meanwhile, after the launch of the Agent team, compared to Q2, the usage of WAI by new SaaS customers in Q3 increased by 217.7%, and AI commercialization revenue grew by 237%. In 2024, the renewal rate for small and medium-sized merchants using WAI reached 75%.

Based on the certainty of the arrival of the Agentic AI era, Sun Taoyong stated that Weimob will "keep up with AI technology development, All in AI," and explore a new layout for AI Agents from four directions: "AI + SaaS (empowering SaaS merchants for intelligent operations), AI + marketing (AI-driven smart marketing to reduce costs and increase efficiency), To B (providing personalized AI customization solutions), To C (offering AI e-commerce design tools for small businesses and designers)."

In the era of "AI explosion," various industries are drawing their own AI blueprints. Sun Taoyong also envisions Weimob fully embracing the Agentic AI era
