China’s biggest tech company just built your next coworker.
Tencent WorkBuddy doesn’t answer questions. It takes the whole task and hands back finished work.
I gave @WorkBuddy_AI one research job and watched a team of agents run it in parallel.
Here’s what came back
The job: a full competitor analysis of the AI presentation market.
By hand, that’s 2-3 hours:
• Find the competitors • Pull pricing and features • Compare them • Write it up
I described it in plain English and hit go.
This didn’t behave like a chatbot.
It broke the job into pieces and ran several agents at once, each on its own slice, while I watched live.
Closer to handing work to a team than typing into a chat box.
The part that stuck with me:
WorkBuddy comes with 100+ built-in skills and ready-to-run expert teams.
No hunting for the perfect prompt. You pick a workflow built for the job, point it at your task, and let it run.
If your week runs on research, reports, decks, or docs, this does the first pass for you.
