On January 20th, Ant Afu announced an upgrade to its PC platform, introducing a DeepSearch feature designed to create a Chinese version of "Open Evidence." This new capability will be provided free of charge to medical professionals, including doctors, medical students, and primary healthcare workers, to support their professional needs.
The Ant Afu PC platform now offers two core professional capabilities: health consultations and DeepSearch. It is positioned to serve as an AI-powered intelligent assistant for doctors in areas such as literature search, clinical diagnosis, and research work, significantly reducing their daily workload.
This upgrade to the PC platform signifies a further maturation of Ant Afu's dual-end strategy, which encompasses both a user-facing app and a doctor-facing platform. On the user side, the Ant Afu App has already become the health management application with the largest user base in China, handling over 10 million user inquiries per day.
Leveraging its self-developed Ant Medical Health large model, Ant Afu has made "AI digital doubles" technology available to doctors nationwide. More than 1,000 doctors have already created their own AI doubles on the Afu App, enabling them to provide 24/7 online responses to user health inquiries.
