Shenchao TechFlow news: On July 07, the Alipay AI Open Platform was officially launched and opened for invitation-based trials to enterprise developers and development outsourcing service providers. The platform allows merchants and institutions to upgrade existing mini-programs, API interfaces, and service capabilities into MCPs, Skills, or Agents that can be called by AI, enabling “single integration, multi-device distribution, and unified management.” After integration, the related services can not only deliver intelligent services to users within the Alipay ecosystem, but also expand to multiple types of terminals such as mobile phones, in-car infotainment systems, AI glasses, and IoT devices. The platform also provides fundamental capabilities such as hosting, distribution, trading, and settlement, and reduces multi-terminal adaptation costs through conversion via a unified protocol. Alipay said that this AI-driven upgrade will not affect existing mini-program services.
