Tencent Cloud launched 元宝搜索 on Nov. 11, introducing a browser-accessible search service that draws on web pages, WeChat content and academic literature and accepts text, voice and photo queries.

Users can access the service through any browser or select it in the search settings of the latest QQ Browser. Tencent Cloud built its search process around 元宝大模型 capabilities, covering understanding, retrieval, ranking and answer organization.

The index covers web pages, WeChat Official Accounts, 视频号 channels and academic literature. Separately, 元宝搜索 connects to 157 authoritative sources.

The service keeps advertising separate from its answers and gives users an option to collapse the ad section.
