AI that works has become the central theme at the 2026 Yunqi Conference. After three years of intense model competition, practical usability has emerged as the simplest demand from the enterprise side. However, benchmark scores and flashy product demos do not solve actual problems. Only AI that reaches the front lines of business operations and delivers tangible outcomes can truly fulfill the promise of safe and controllable application of intelligence. Merit Interactive Co., Ltd. presented its enterprise-grade AI product, the GAI Station, at the conference, launching a series of vertical AI applications for government and business users. Attendees had the opportunity to test all products on-site, from contract review and intelligent bid document creation to designing their own AI business applications, experiencing practical value in real-time.
Security and capability are not mutually exclusive choices. For businesses to confidently adopt AI, they require control over how it operates. The GAI Station integrates a cloud, edge, device, and knowledge-base architecture within a single unit, allowing AI to connect with enterprise data. It relies on a trusted private cloud to access a wide range of full-parameter models as needed. Pre-installed AI applications address daily office scenarios and generate work outputs immediately. By assigning specialized small models locally to handle data preparation, it not only strengthens security but significantly reduces token consumption. Compared to fully private deployment or cloud API calls, this hybrid approach offers more straightforward cost management and enables organizations to adopt the newest model capabilities promptly. This positions the GAI Station as the optimal solution for companies seeking to utilize AI without compromising data security.
To make AI accessible, the workstation has launched multiple versions. These include an Enterprise Edition and a XinChuang Edition designed for organizations of up to one hundred people, a Team Edition and Pioneer Individual Edition for groups of ten, and a Team Edition T2 that operates entirely offline. This last option ensures that even departments with high confidentiality needs can leverage effective AI tools.
Beyond data protection and compute expenditure, control also translates into delivering results that boost work efficiency. The GAI Station continuously enhances its ready-to-use applications and knowledge base foundation to convert AI directly into work outcomes. Intelligent Q&A, powered by a governmental knowledge base and Agentic RAG, can precisely understand text, spreadsheets, charts, and other formats. It delivers answers relevant to the business context and cites sources for every response, preventing baseless assumptions and misinformation. A new skill center launched at the event offers a curated selection of abilities, improving tasks like presentation building and report analysis.
The AI writing assistant uses extensive credible data with multiple creation styles and exclusive tone management. This allows for the efficient drafting of official documents, summaries, and whitepapers. Meeting minutes tools utilize proprietary voice recognition to distinguish speakers accurately, synchronizing key points and transcripts, while also providing targeted summaries. Additional applications, such as table analysis and the Tongren Consultant, enhance specialized task support. All applications within the station operate on a shared, localized enterprise knowledge base, ensuring controlled access and cohesive, organized data storage that is readily available.
AI is also positioned to assist professionals in their specific roles. The latest vertical applications introduced at the conference target key operational pain points across different functions. The Contract Assistant automates comparison, flagging clause differences and risk variations without the burden of manual line-by-line review. The TongBiao Intelligent Review integrates knowledge base capabilities into the entire bid writing process. Users can upload historical proposals, automatically archiving and structuring qualification materials. This allows for faster drafting of new bids while improving both speed and quality.
AITA, introduced for brand marketing, connects with real-time, billion-scale data. The AI generates credible user segment insights and reliable marketing tactics. AIBI, the intelligent operations tool, is designed for user operations teams. Team members can query data directly through natural conversation, automatically generating conclusions and strengthening data-supported decision-making. An application marketplace, which launched concurrently, will continue to add reliable enterprise software, allowing organizations to integrate new tools on-demand, similar to downloading an app.
For scenarios standard products fail to cover, frontline business employees can build solutions themselves. The station provides Tongren Programming and DeepSeek Harness, two AI development tools, to non-technical staff. By describing business requirements in plain language, employees can have AI design and develop business system prototypes without writing a single line of code. These tools can be continuously refined and optimized through ongoing dialogue. This approach lets front-line experts turn their industry insight into accessible tools that can be shared across teams, converting personal know-how into reusable company assets.
In application deployment, Merit Interactive also supports customers through the CCE (AI Co-Creation Engineer) and DVD (Data Value Developer) co-delivery models, converting client requirements into relevant AI applications. Before any application becomes available on the workstation, TongZhangGui performs comprehensive security checks, sandbox isolation, and permission control reviews to guarantee that all tools remain usable, manageable, and secure.
As AI becomes a common driver of efficiency across many businesses, the nature of discussions will shift, but the corporate demand for AI that is both affordable and practical will remain constant. The workstation protects data security through its integrated architecture, lowers barriers with out-of-the-box applications, extends deep into professional workflows with vertical solutions, and puts AI directly into business operations with intuitive development tools. Moving forward, the GAI Station will carry its demonstrated effectiveness into even more real-world environments, turning smart applications into everyday, tangible productivity.
