Doubao is ByteDance's AI assistant. With the 2026 Doubao 2.0 release it no longer just answers: once installed on your desktop, it can drive apps and the browser with your permission, open and edit local Office files, run long tasks on a cloud PC, and take orders from your phone while you are away. Core features are free — a practical fit for students, office workers and small teams that want repetitive work handed off.

About Doubao

[Model lineup] ByteDance shipped Doubao 2.0 in February 2026: Pro / Lite / Mini general agent models plus a Code model tuned for programming, with a heavy focus on multimodality — visual reasoning, spatial understanding and long-video analysis. The Seed 2.1 series in June shifted the goal from "can answer" to "can deliver", scoring top marks on the GDPval real-work benchmark; SeedRealtime, a full-duplex audio-video model, arrived in August. Consumers get Doubao 2.0 Pro through the "Expert" mode in the app, desktop client and web. [Work Task mode] The headline change of 2026. Launched in June with permission-based control of your local machine and browser, then expanded in August: remote control of your computer from your phone, multi-device file retrieval, a "virtual desktop" so you and the AI can use the same Windows PC without fighting over mouse and keyboard, and a choice of local or cloud execution — local keeps data on your machine, cloud stays online for long, heavy jobs. [Skills, connectors, work partners] The "Skills · Connectors · Partners" panel in the desktop sidebar is the extension layer: 200+ plug-and-play skills plus custom ones that capture your own workflow, connectors into Feishu, DingTalk, Amap and other systems, and work partners / squads that spin up researcher, analyst, writer and designer agents to collaborate on one task. [Documents and details] Since October, Doubao Work opens and edits local PPT, Excel and Word files directly; the side workbench puts chat and operation on one screen so you can interrupt mid-task, and lets you edit a page or document in place; Miaoda turns a sentence into a small app; a work-memory panel shows what it remembered about you and which memory a reply used; message queuing lets you pile up requests while it is still answering — they keep running even if you close the laptop. [Who it suits / caveats] Requires the Windows 10+ or macOS client; remote control and cloud PC need separate authorization. Everyday chat, writing, image generation and slide creation are free; longer cloud sessions and higher-tier model quota require membership. New desktop users can claim a 30-day trial package during the campaign — eligibility and rules follow the official page.
