This AI card became a hot commodity at the Digital Trade Fair

On September 25, the 4th Global Digital Trade Expo opened in Hangzhou. As China's only national-level exhibition dedicated to digital trade, this year's event brought together cutting-edge global digital technologies and AI innovations, creating a "festival of black-tech" where reality meets the future.

DingTalk AI 1.0 debuts, DingTalk A1 steals the spotlight

Alibaba's DingTalk showcased its latest release, AI DingTalk 1.0, at the themed exhibition hall, with its first AI hardware product, the DingTalk A1, emerging as the star attraction. It drew crowds of international business visitors eager to experience the device, with long queues forming at the booth, making it one of the most sought-after products at the expo.

Sleek design with powerful integrated functions

Barely 3.8mm thick—about the size of a few stacked credit cards—this AI voice recorder integrates four key functions: voice recorder, meeting device, translator, and AI assistant. Paired with DingTalk’s AI-powered audio transcription feature, it enables end-to-end intelligent processing, including speech-to-text conversion, multilingual translation, content summarization, and AI analysis.

Powered by a 6nm low-power AI audio chip and equipped with a six-microphone array, it supports ultra-long-distance audio pickup, offers up to 45 hours of recording time, and delivers a battery life of up to 60 days, combining portability with high performance.

Smart translation and voice recognition attract international attention

International visitors showed strong interest in the DingTalk A1’s real-time speech transcription and multilingual translation capabilities, particularly useful in cross-border meetings, effectively providing users with a personal simultaneous interpreter. These features are powered by a speech recognition model co-developed by DingTalk and Tongyi Lab, trained on 100 million hours of audio data, enabling accurate identification of dozens of global languages and regional accents.

Versatile applications for enhanced productivity

The DingTalk A1 targets a wide range of professionals, including business executives, lawyers, customer service representatives, and content creators. It comes with over 30 scenario-based smart note templates suitable for meetings, interviews, classrooms, legal consultations, client visits, job interviews, and more.

The device also includes more than ten AI assistants with different roles that can analyze communication patterns, generate automated workflows, and store AI-generated insights in knowledge bases or AI-powered spreadsheets, enabling closed-loop information management.

A tech company executive from Brazil praised the device on site: “China’s AI development is so fast—it’s truly eye-opening! A product like this AI voice card is not only ingeniously designed but also exquisitely crafted. I really hope it will be available in Brazil soon to boost our work efficiency.”

Showcasing China’s AI innovation strength

DingTalk’s exhibit represents not just a deep integration of AI software and hardware, but also signals a transformation in global work practices in the AI era. Many international visitors expressed amazement at the pace of AI application development in China, noting that DingTalk’s innovations offer new pathways for businesses worldwide to access artificial intelligence.
