Let Small Stores Use the Intelligent Brain of Large Chains: Gaode Wendi Launches AI Capabilities for Open Calling

On the evening of June 11, Alibaba Group's AutoNavi CloudMap announced the official opening of its commercial AI agent ecosystem and launched the public test of "AutoNavi Ask Store," offering the first batch of AI agents and Skill (capabilities) to ecosystem partners. This product is built on AutoNavi's spatial intelligence, integrating technologies related to travel, location, and commercial operations, and encapsulating them into a commercial AI agent capability system. The move aims to break through scale barriers, empowering small and medium-sized merchants with intelligent operation capabilities that were previously exclusive to large chain brands.

According to the information, the current AI agent ecosystem focuses on store operation scenarios, and covers three core directions: "data inquiry," "site selection," and "operation." It provides multiple business Skills, including site recommendation, location evaluation, operation diagnosis, and market insight, covering the entire life cycle of small and medium-sized merchants from site selection and opening to daily operations. All Skills are currently open for use by ecosystem partners, supporting direct integration into their products and services.
