Equipped with the capability to understand and produce language, image, voice and data, LingGuang delivers precise, structured responses to complex queries through 3D models, audio clips, charts, animations, interactive maps, and even immediately generated applications, in addition to traditional text-based conversation.

Designed around three key features, LingGuang aims to make complex knowledge simpler and more intuitive, transforming how users access information and interact with AI tools.

Fast Research: LingGuang responds to user questions or keywords with dynamic, multimodal content, making research on any topic clearer and more engaging. Its 3D digital modeling capability transcends traditional 2D limitations, allowing users to explore and interact with subjects ranging from the Pyramids to Tyrannosaurus rex. Generative illustrations turn abstract concepts, such as quantum entanglement or economic principles, into intuitive visuals or animations. Interactive maps further help users plan travel routes or discover restaurants with ease.

Flash App: Leveraging its native AI coding capability, LingGuang lets users create personalized, interactive flash apps using simple natural language prompts. Whether for fitness tracking, trip planning, healthy recipes, personal financial management, or shopping suggestions, LingGuang can build and instantly run custom flash apps directly within the conversation in as little as 30 seconds. This feature marks the industry’s first general-purpose AI tool that empowers non-technical users to develop functional applications effortlessly.

AGI Camera: LingGuang provides real-time understanding of complex scenes and dynamic footage captured by users, delivering contextual insights and enabling on-the-fly editing or generation of images and videos through commands.

At its core, LingGuang automatically decomposes user queries into task frameworks and processes tasks across different knowledge domains and modalities in parallel. Combined with the native AI coding capability, this modular approach ensures logical rigor while enabling diverse outputs—from 3D animations to dynamic charts—all delivered in a clean, minimalist style.

He Zhengyu, Chief Technology Officer of Ant Group, noted, “At Ant Group, we believe Artificial General Intelligence should be a public good—something that benefits everyone, not just experts. LingGuang is bringing every user their own personal AI developer: someone who can code, create visuals, build apps, and turn complex ideas into simple solutions—right in your pocket.”

LingGuang is now available for download on the Apple App Store and major Android app stores.

In 2025, Ant Group has accelerated its journey toward Artificial General Intelligence, unveiling a series of innovations including the AI healthcare service AQ, the multi-scenario service robot Robbyant R1, and the Ling series of AI models, including trillion-parameter-scale systems.
