We do not publish market-share or usage figures for Chinese AI apps until they come from a source we have verified. The only market figure on these pages is CNNIC’s 515 million generative-AI users in China (June 2025, reported by Xinhua). FAQ Q: Why not publish usage shares for each assistant? A: Published figures for Chinese AI apps vary widely by source and method. We will only publish numbers we can verify from a primary source; until then we test all six. Q: Do you use APIs or the apps? A: The apps, because that is what customers see. Where an official API with web search is available, we may use it as a second check and say so in the report. Q: Which sources do Chinese assistants cite? A: It differs by assistant, by question and over time. We record the sources cited in each answer rather than assume them — that record is part of every audit. *** ## Frequently Asked Questions (FAQPage Grounding) ### Q: Why not publish usage shares for each assistant? **A**: Published figures for Chinese AI apps vary widely by source and method.
