Tencent Builds Another Search Engine in 2026—Why Now?

QbitAI is public.

No, it's not 2026, so anyone else is thinking about re-searching the web?

Who doesn't have to open their browser, type in keywords, and go through a row of blue links one by one?

If you're looking for something to eat, drink, and play around with, you're looking for a book, you're looking for information, you're asking questions, you're throwing them directly to ChatGPT, and so forth, you're looking for answers, you're faced with complex issues, and you're even able to get your own agent to go online and make their own conclusions.

The website searches for the Internet's old forerunner, Doge, who has long been overwhelmed by AI and can't be found in the north.

But at the same time, Tencent partially re-engineered the search, releasing a brand new set of independent search products.

It's not about adding a search entry to the Baby App, or adding an AI button to the QQ browser.

Tencent has created an independent website that opens a familiar search box.

And the pages are clean, there are no pop-ups, there is no information flow, and there is no messy full-screen search.

However, the search engines are not clear enough, and what they are looking for is the right thing to do.

I tried it first, and the most intuitive part of the experience was three things:

Advertisers, authoritative sources, priority, and AI can help you sort out the answers.

The content can also be accessed directly from public numbers, video numbers, news and other news ecosystems.

But I still want to ask:

It's so hard for AI to cope with traditional web searches, so why create one specifically?

Advertising folded by one button

Li Zhang, former head of product search, also admitted that web searches were indeed being squeezed by AI.

But at the same time, he said,The whole demand for searches hasn't disappeared.。

According to CNNIC, as of December 2025, the number of people living with HIV/AIDS in the United States is estimated to be as high as 50 million.China still has 782 million search engine users, accounting for 69.5% of total internet users。

Well, it's fair to say no, but it's pretty honest.

And now, there is something wrong with the search engines that everyone has been talking about for so many years, and it hasn't completely healed.

For the next open-source software, the first page will come up with three high-impact promotions;

The first few pages were all about you copying me, and I copying your garbage station.

It's not easy to get into an answer and turn around and find that it's a selling point.

If you enter a few keywords, the answer is 180,000 miles from what you really want to ask.

So, in the face of these old issues, the news is out of the way.

First of all, there's a very real design for the precious stones search.Advertising can get a whole bunch.。

In the past, one of the most common causes of hypertension in web searches has been the confusion between search results and advertisements.

Clearly, I was just trying to find the official download address of the software, and the result was a few promotional links that looked like the official website.

It's a bit of a shame, but it's a completely irrelevant page.

Although it doesn't shout the slogan "No Advertising at All", it places ads in separate areas, with clear labels, and provides the "Take Ad" button.

Don't you want to see it?

Natural searches and commercial promotion of physical isolation, at least not in the shadowy shadows.

I think it's fair to say one of Lee's statements on the spot:

We don't rule out ads, but users shouldn't look for answers in ads.

Advertising can be there, but it's clear that advertising tells users that it's advertising.

Authoritative sources of trust

In addition to folding ads, treasure searches are also ready to move away from information sources.

For example, when searching for a policy, the page will give priority to the information published by the relevant government departments and official agencies.

Looking for a product will also make sure that the brand's official website is located where it can be easily found and that the official website is clearly identified.

Each result is labeled with a source, making it easy for users to enter and verify the results themselves.

Tencent also built a set for it.100 billion web pages indexedIt has partnered with 157 sources in 13 industries, including healthcare, sporting events, travel services, automotive, public services, and more.

And if you want to find some expertise, you can also switch to the Academic Cop channel.

For example, search for "What are the consequences of intermittent weight loss?"

Rather than simply giving a single piece of general health advice, Baby Search tries to extract research conclusions, data, and evidence from professional literature, converting less well-understood terms in papers into explanations that ordinary people can understand.

The original papers are still preserved and can be viewed from the source in order to continue to be verified; if you encounter English literature, one-click translation is also supported.

And there are other sources of content in the search: WeChat Public Number and Video Number.

Search results can also provide explanations of professional medical institutions, general interpretations in public issues, and the content of a doctor's mirrored presentation in a video issue.

The same problem can be found in both professional sources and in different forms of presentation.

But to be honest, this module... should be familiar to all our classmates who searched on WeChat.

It's not just the links that are searched, it's the pages that keep up with the issues.

The appearance of the original treasure search is still a familiar search box, but the input method has been loosened considerably.

Previously, searching for keywords had to be refined, but now you can directly input the entire problem, and AI can help you extract key information; you can even master typing, and you can say it directly.

It also supports uploading images to search for things that are not easy to describe in text.

At the top of the search results, an AI summary is given, and users can view the corresponding source.

If you want to keep looking down, you can switch to AI mode and keep asking questions through text, voice, or images.

While the interaction here is increasingly similar to Chatbot, the page retains a list of traditional searches, classification channels and page jumps.

And the pages that were searched for on different issues were not quite the same.

Searching for the ex-babyGenerated UIThat's funny.

Traditional search engines have a blackboard card, which only looks at the weather if the weather is predicted and only looks at the K-line if the stock is predicted.

It attempted to make models based on real-time problems, dynamically packed into various UI components. The problems changed, the layout, the weight of the modules and the display form changed along with it, and the resulting pages were more appropriate.

And the team is also trying to make the card system more flexible.

At the end of the day, there's a middle ground in the search:

The left hand grabs traditional search sources, jumps, checks with huge indexes, and the right hand uses AI to figure out the intent to understand, refine and dynamically present information, and then push the annoying ads.

It's just that in this time when people are calling up dialog boxes and even browsers are scoring points, users who have become accustomed to AI Chatbot are still reluctant to open a search website...

This is not a good thing to say.

But what's curious is whether the new AI-era search could use this big model to re-create something that will shine a spotlight.

It's the first time I've seen it.
