Douyin is internally testing an "AI Workshop" product aimed at both general creators and developers, according to ChainCatcher. The tool links the full process from building AI applications and debugging them to distributing them on the platform, while tying the workflow directly to Douyin’s in-app traffic system. AI development frameworks, API capabilities and cloud storage services are built into the creator backend. The Douyin app has also added a new recommendation-page format called interest cards, which are used to display AI applications created through AI Workshop. Users can encounter these cards directly in the recommendation feed without jumping to a mini program or leaving the main app. Within the feed, they can complete tasks such as question-and-answer queries, light interactive experiences and simple tool usage. ChainCatcher said the product supports both non-technical and technical users. Creators with no coding knowledge can describe ideas in natural language to build applications, while developers can modify underlying files for deeper customization. Debugging, real-device preview and publishing are handled in the same environment. The product is currently in an invitation-only internal testing stage.

Douyin is internally testing AI Workshop, a product aimed at ordinary creators and developers, according to ChainCatcher. The tool connects the full workflow from AI app creation and debugging to platform distribution, and is tied closely to Douyin’s in-app traffic system.

AI development frameworks, API capabilities and cloud storage services are built into the creator backend. The Douyin app has also added a new recommendation-page format called interest cards to showcase AI applications made through AI Workshop.

AI apps can be distributed directly in the recommendation feed

Users can access these cards while browsing the recommendation page without being redirected to a mini program or leaving the main app. Inside the feed, they can complete question-and-answer searches, light interactive experiences and simple tool use. The cards are distributed through Douyin’s personalized recommendation system and support customized formats and interaction styles.

Built for both no-code creators and developers

Creators with no coding background can build applications by describing their ideas in natural language. Developers with technical skills can modify underlying files for deeper customization. Debugging, real-device preview and publishing all happen in the same environment, and finished products can be turned directly into interest cards for placement in the recommendation feed.

The product is currently in an invitation-only internal testing stage.
