Chinese language e-commerce big Alibaba’s famously prolific Qwen Workforce of AI mannequin researchers and engineers has launched a serious growth to its Qwen Deep Analysis software, which is accessible as an optionally available modality the consumer can activate on the web-based Qwen Chat (a competitor to ChatGPT).
The replace lets customers generate not solely complete analysis experiences with well-organized citations, but in addition interactive net pages and multi-speaker podcasts — all inside 1-2 clicks.
This performance is a part of a proprietary launch, distinct from a lot of Qwen’s earlier open-source mannequin choices.
Whereas the function depends on the open-source fashions Qwen3-Coder, Qwen-Picture, and Qwen3-TTS to energy its core capabilities, the end-to-end expertise — together with analysis execution, net deployment, and audio era — is hosted and operated by Qwen.
This implies customers profit from a managed, built-in workflow without having to configure infrastructure. That mentioned, builders with entry to the open-source fashions might theoretically replicate related performance on non-public or industrial techniques.
The replace was introduced by way of the crew’s official X account (@Alibaba_Qwen) right now, October 21, 2025, stating:
“Qwen Deep Analysis simply acquired a serious improve. It now creates not solely the report, but in addition a stay webpage and a podcast — powered by Qwen3-Coder, Qwen-Picture, and Qwen3-TTS. Your insights, now visible and audible.”
Multi-Format Analysis Output
The core workflow begins with a consumer request contained in the Qwen Chat interface. From there, Qwen collaborates by asking clarifying inquiries to form the analysis scope, pulls knowledge from the net and official sources, and analyzes or resolves any inconsistencies it finds — even producing customized code when wanted.
A demo video posted by Qwen on X walks via this course of on Qwen Chat utilizing the U.S. SaaS market for example.
In it, Qwen retrieves knowledge from a number of business sources, identifies discrepancies in market dimension estimates (e.g., $206 billion vs. $253 billion), and highlights ambiguities within the U.S. share of worldwide figures. The assistant feedback on variations in scope between sources and calculates a compound annual progress fee (CAGR) of 19.8% from 2020 to 2023, offering contextual evaluation to again up the uncooked numbers.
As soon as the analysis is full, customers can click on on the "eyeball" icon beneath the output consequence (see screenshot), which can convey up a PDF-style report in the precise hand pane.
Then, when viewing the report within the right-hand pane, the consumer can click on the "Create" button within the upper-right hand nook and choose from the next two choices:
-
"Internet Dev" which produces a stay, professional-grade net web page, robotically deployed and hosted by Qwen, utilizing Qwen3-Coder for construction and Qwen-Picture for visuals.
-
"Podcast," which, because it states, produces an audio podcast, that includes dynamic, multi-speaker narration generated by Qwen3-TTS, additionally hosted by Qwen for straightforward sharing and playback.
This allows customers to rapidly convert a single analysis challenge into a number of types of content material — written, visible, and audible — with minimal further enter.
The web site contains inline graphics generated by Qwen Picture, making it appropriate to be used in public displays, school rooms, or publishing.
The podcast function permits customers to pick between 17 completely different speaker names because the host and seven because the co-host, although I wasn't capable of finding a technique to preview the voice outputs earlier than choosing them. It seems designed for deep listening on the go.
There was no technique to change the language output that I might see, so mine got here out in English, like my experiences and preliminary prompts, although the Qwen LLMs are multi-modal. The voices had been barely extra robotic than different AI instruments I've used.
Right here's an instance of an internet web page I generated on commonalities in authoritarian regimes all through historical past, one other one on UFO or UAP sightings, and beneath this paragraph, a podcast on UFO or UAP sightings.
Whereas the web site is hosted by way of a public hyperlink, the podcast have to be downloaded by the consumer and may't be linked to publicly, from what I might inform in my temporary utilization thus far.
Word the podcast is far completely different than the precise report — not only a straight read-through audio model of it, reasonably, a brand new format of two hosts discussing and bantering in regards to the topic utilizing the report because the leaping off level.
The net web page variations of the report additionally embrace new graphics not discovered within the PDF report.
Comparisons to Google's NotebookLM
Whereas the brand new capabilities have been properly obtained by many early customers, comparisons to different analysis assistants have surfaced — significantly Google’s NotebookLM, which lately exited beta.
AI commentator and publication author Chubby (@kimmonismus) famous on X:
“I’m actually grateful that Qwen gives common updates. That’s nice.
However the try to construct a NotebookLM clone inside Qwen-3-max doesn’t sound very promising in comparison with Google’s model.”
Whereas NotebookLM is constructed round organizing and querying present paperwork and net pages, Qwen Deep Analysis focuses extra on producing new analysis content material from scratch, aggregating sources from the open net, and presenting it throughout a number of modalities.
The comparability means that whereas the 2 instruments overlap usually idea — AI-assisted analysis — they diverge in method and goal consumer expertise.
Availability
Qwen Deep Analysis is now stay and accessible via the Qwen Chat app. The function might be accessed with the next URL.
No pricing particulars have been supplied for Qwen3-Max or the particular Deep Analysis capabilities as of this writing.
What's Subsequent For Qwen Deep Analysis?
By combining analysis steerage, knowledge evaluation, and multi-format content material creation right into a single software, Qwen Deep Analysis goals to streamline the trail from concept to publishable output.
The combination of code, visuals, and voice makes it particularly enticing to content material creators, educators, and unbiased analysts who wish to scale their analysis into web- or podcast-friendly kinds with out switching platforms.
Nonetheless, comparisons to extra specialised choices like NotebookLM elevate questions on how Qwen’s generalized method stacks up on depth, precision, and refinement. Whether or not the power of its multi-format execution outweighs these issues might come right down to consumer priorities — and whether or not they worth single-click publishing over tight integration with present notes and supplies.
For now, Qwen is signaling that analysis doesn’t finish with a doc — it begins with one.
Let me know if you need this repackaged into one thing shorter or tailor-made to a specific viewers — publication, press-style weblog, inner crew explainer, and many others.
