Meituan Launches AI Tool ‘NoCode’ in Beta for Non-Technical Users

Meituan has initiated the beta testing of its AI tool, “NoCode,” aimed at simplifying programming for non-technical users. The project is led by the company’s Quality and Efficiency Team and supported by CEO Wang Xing.

Development and Strategic Importance

The project was developed by Meituan’s Quality and Efficiency Team, with support from CEO Wang Xing.
“NoCode” is in beta , targeting widespread use among non-technical users. The tool is driven by Meituan’s “Longcat” model and external AI models.

Despite parallels to offerings like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, “NoCode” does not interface with blockchain or cryptocurrencies. Its focus is on enhancing internal business processes and accessibility. Financial markets and on-chain data have remained unaffected by its launch.

Meituan’s latest AI product reflects its strategic investment in AI. CEO Wang Xing has emphasized increased spending, notably in AI infrastructure and application development.

“We are increasing AI-related spending in 2025 as part of our strategy to enhance our infrastructure and develop applications.” – Wang Xing, Founder and CEO, Meituan

This initiative emerged from an internal AI Hackathon and aligns with efforts by other tech giants like Alibaba.

This launch is part of a growing trend among Chinese tech companies to broaden AI tool accessibility. Meituan’s “NoCode” promises to simplify programming for non-specialists, though its adoption among developers and business operators remains in early stages. The project’s progression might influence future AI development and adoption strategies.
