Meituan has launched a new AI agent app that aims to boost its food delivery and local services business, as its battle with Alibaba Group Holding Ltd for Chinese consumers heats up.
The Xiaomei agent, powered by Meituan’s own LongCat-model, allows users to order meals via voice command and help them book restaurants, according to a company statement on Sept 12. It can also offer food recommendations, the statement said.
