AI no-code builders are shifting from generation to delivery, with Baidu Miaoda at 33.4% share
智东西 · wechat · 2026-07-27
A Chinese report argues that AI app builders are no longer competing on generation alone — delivery is now the real moat.
- Based on a Frost & Sullivan report, Baidu’s Miaoda leads China’s AI-native no-code app generation market with 33.4% share, ahead of Coze and Lingguang.
- The article says users now care most about whether an app can be fully generated, deployed easily, and actually used, while common pain points include weak database/API support, compliance risks, instability, and poor monetization.
- Miaoda 3.5 has expanded beyond creation into discovery and delivery: SEO tooling, Android/iOS app generation, packaging and app-store assistance, multi-end shared backends, dev/prod isolation, on-demand resources, and Skills for extensibility.
- The piece frames this as a shift from “can it generate?” to “can it become a real product that runs, ships, and makes money?”
