The latest monthly update of the industry ranking “AI Product List – AI App Growth Chart” has been released, with Alibaba’s Qwen App claiming the No. 1 spot in global AI application growth, recording an impressive 149.03% month-over-month increase in MAUs.

The app entered public beta on November 17, and surpassed 10 million downloads within just one week.

Qwen’s explosive momentum is powered by the technical leadership and broad open-source influence of Alibaba’s Qwen large model family. Qwen models have already established a strong presence across both technology benchmarks and developer communities, with over 700 million global downloads of its open-source models and recognition from multiple international tech giants.

Since the public beta launch, the Qwen App has rapidly gained traction among users:

  • Ranked Top 3 on the Mainland China App Store’s Free Overall Chart within its first three days
  • Reached No.1 on the Macau App Store
  • Entered the Top 3 in Hong Kong

The Qwen App remains in public beta, and its capabilities—especially in task execution—are expected to continue expanding as more services from Alibaba’s ecosystem are integrated in the future.
