Recently, Taobao has made a new move in the client domain and quietly launched a "desktop version" client. However, at present, this client is temporarily only available for Windows version.
From the official released images, the overall layout of this "desktop version" client adopts the style of a web browser. In terms of interface design, the left side integrates AI functions and Aliwangwang chat functions, making it convenient for users to communicate with merchants while consulting about shopping.
The top part of the interface sets up product tabs. The official claims that this design can achieve "split-screen display and smooth browsing," providing users with a smoother shopping browsing experience.
A major highlight of Taobao's "desktop version" client this time is the AI shopping assistant function emphasized by the official. It is reported that this function integrates Qwen3 and DeepSeek, mainly aiming to help users pick out products more accurately.
In addition, users can also input other prompt words to let the AI output various relevant contents, further meeting personalized shopping needs. The launch of Taobao's "desktop version" client undoubtedly brings new choices and experiences to users' shopping methods.
