Chinese language e-commerce large Alibaba’s famously prolific Qwen Crew of AI mannequin researchers and engineers has launched a significant enlargement to its Qwen Deep Analysis instrument, which is accessible as an non-obligatory 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 additionally interactive internet pages and multi-speaker podcasts — all inside 1-2 clicks.
This performance is a part of a proprietary launch, distinct from lots 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, internet deployment, and audio technology — is hosted and operated by Qwen.
This implies customers profit from a managed, built-in workflow while not having to configure infrastructure. That mentioned, builders with entry to the open-source fashions may theoretically replicate comparable performance on non-public or industrial methods.
The replace was introduced through the group’s official X account (@Alibaba_Qwen) at the moment, October 21, 2025, stating:
“Qwen Deep Analysis simply bought a significant improve. It now creates not solely the report, but additionally a reside 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 information 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 information 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 world 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 end result (see screenshot), which is able to deliver 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:
-
"Net Dev" which produces a reside, professional-grade internet web page, routinely 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 simple sharing and playback.
This allows customers to shortly convert a single analysis mission into a number of types of content material — written, visible, and audible — with minimal additional enter.
The web site contains inline graphics generated by Qwen Picture, making it appropriate to be used in public displays, lecture rooms, or publishing.
The podcast function permits customers to pick between 17 totally different speaker names because the host and seven because the co-host, although I wasn't capable of finding a method to preview the voice outputs earlier than deciding on them. It seems designed for deep listening on the go.
There was no method to change the language output that I may see, so mine got here out in English, like my experiences and preliminary prompts, although the Qwen LLMs are multi-modal. The voices have been barely extra robotic than different AI instruments I've used.
Right here's an instance of an online 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 through a public hyperlink, the podcast should be downloaded by the consumer and may't be linked to publicly, from what I may inform in my temporary utilization to this point.
Be aware the podcast is way totally different than the precise report — not only a straight read-through audio model of it, fairly, a brand new format of two hosts discussing and bantering in regards to the topic utilizing the report because the leaping off level.
The online web page variations of the report additionally embody new graphics not discovered within the PDF report.
Comparisons to Google's NotebookLM
Whereas the brand new capabilities have been effectively obtained by many early customers, comparisons to different analysis assistants have surfaced — significantly Google’s NotebookLM, which lately exited beta.
AI commentator and e-newsletter author Chubby (@kimmonismus) famous on X:
“I’m actually grateful that Qwen supplies common updates. That’s nice.
However the try and 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 internet pages, Qwen Deep Analysis focuses extra on producing new analysis content material from scratch, aggregating sources from the open internet, and presenting it throughout a number of modalities.
The comparability means that whereas the 2 instruments overlap generally idea — AI-assisted analysis — they diverge in method and goal consumer expertise.
Availability
Qwen Deep Analysis is now reside and obtainable via the Qwen Chat app. The function could be accessed with the next URL.
No pricing particulars have been offered for Qwen3-Max or the particular Deep Analysis capabilities as of this writing.
What's Subsequent For Qwen Deep Analysis?
By combining analysis steerage, information evaluation, and multi-format content material creation right into a single instrument, Qwen Deep Analysis goals to streamline the trail from concept to publishable output.
The combination of code, visuals, and voice makes it particularly engaging to content material creators, educators, and unbiased analysts who need to scale their analysis into web- or podcast-friendly varieties with out switching platforms.
Nonetheless, comparisons to extra specialised choices like NotebookLM increase 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 could 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 in order for you this repackaged into one thing shorter or tailor-made to a selected viewers — e-newsletter, press-style weblog, inner group explainer, and so on.
