🤔 Chinese media reports ByteDance's overseas AI assistant Dola has surpassed 10 million daily active users. The app targets emerging markets in Southeast Asia and Latin America with dialogue, writing, translation, and image capabilities.

Dola was rebranded from Cici in late 2025 and saw strong growth in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Mexico during H2. This suggests ByteDance is running a dual-track AI strategy: Doubao for China, Dola for developing markets.
