Yuanbao learning map
Yuanbao is Tencent's consumer all-in-one AI assistant. Official page title (yuanbao.tencent.com): Yuanbao–Tencent's All-in-One AI Assistant
Same-page description: Yuanbao is Tencent's all-in-one AI assistant and is connected to the latest Hunyuan Hy3 model.
This directory covers Yuanbao only. Hunyuan and CodeBuddy each get one row. Their handbooks are other issues.
Audience / non-goals
Audience: frontend engineers who need chat, search, files, and writing in a browser or desktop app. No repo required.
Goals: tell Yuanbao apart from other Tencent AI doors, open an official client, and see what the desktop app adds.
Non-goals:
- Hunyuan models / APIs / open weights (#77)
- A CodeBuddy coding tutorial (#78)
- WeChat / QQ / Tencent Meeting how-tos
- Invented subscription prices, a single "default model", or the unpublished list of 36 file suffixes
- Model internals (see Learn LLM)
Landscape
The Hunyuan site footer lists Yuanbao next to other AI products. They are not one product with four skins.

Footer sources (2026-08-19): hunyuan.tencent.com lists WorkBuddy, Yuanbao, ima. hunyuan.tencent.com/solutions lists Hy AI Studio, Yuanbao, WorkBuddy. The table is the union.
Name collisions:
- Yuanbao ≠ Hunyuan. Yuanbao is the assistant. Hunyuan is the model / research brand.
- Yuanbao ≠ CodeBuddy. Official "AI coding" on Yuanbao is running Python / C++ in the thread (desktop page). Repo / IDE coding is not documented here.
- Yuanbao ≠ WorkBuddy ≠ ima. The last two appear only on the Hunyuan footer.
hunyuan.tencent.com/bot/chatis not a second product. Its canonical URL isyuanbao.tencent.com.- Yuanbao Pai is not a separate app. App Store / Play list it under Yuanbao features and mark it as a public beta.
