Tencent has more than 10 Claw-type products in development or launched, with WorkBuddy starting as early as January 17, originally scheduled to launch on March 16 but advanced by one week due to the hype.

According to CoinWorld, based on monitoring by 1M AI News, Tencent Cloud team revealed in an interview with LatePost that Tencent currently has more than 10 Claw-like products launched, in internal testing, or under development. Among them, WorkBuddy started development as early as January 17, with a team of three or four quickly building an MVP overnight, and the next week, it was opened for internal testing within the company. It was originally scheduled for release on March 16 but was launched a week earlier due to the surge in device installations. Ding Ning stated that the team also prepared for a release during the Spring Festival, with materials, documentation, and installation packages ready in advance, “to avoid a situation like last year’s DeepSeek catching us off guard.” On security, Tencent Cloud Security General Manager Su Jiandong said that Tencent’s security solutions not only serve internal products but also provide the same capabilities for third-party OpenClaw deployment, covering three levels: host security (vulnerability detection, plaintext password encryption), network security (protection against prompt injection, sensitive data leakage detection), and supply chain security (malicious skills access detection). Ding Ning also responded to doubts about “pseudo-necessity,” admitting that OpenClaw “cannot let one person handle the work of ten,” but believes that the willingness of many non-technical users to actively engage with AI itself is a meaningful step.
