Alipay hosted China’s first ecosystem partner conference focused on commercial deployment of intelligent agents in Hangzhou on Monday, August 17. The company introduced the country’s first full-stack intelligent agent business platform and the AHA cross-terminal interconnection protocol, centered on its intelligent agent “Abao.”
The initiative connects merchant services with multi-terminal collaboration and involves over 20 partners including smartphone brands, automakers, and large AI model developers. According to Alipay, Abao has completed AI upgrades for more than 10,000 services and currently supports cross-terminal integration across five major smartphone brands and 16 automakers.
Ant Group CEO said commercial adoption of intelligent agents is expected to accelerate within six to 12 months, citing simultaneous maturity of AI capabilities, rising user demand, and the formation of closed-loop value chains. He called on industry participants to strengthen ecosystem collaboration.
