I. Basic Information
360AI Browser is an AI-driven browser product launched by 360. Its core capabilities include AI search, AI knowledge base, and video AI editing modules. Targeting students, researchers, content creators, and professionals, it provides an integrated tool for problem-solving, document reading, and multimedia organization. The product emphasizes seamless integration of questioning, reading, summarizing, and mind mapping within the browser, reducing the time and context interruptions caused by switching between multiple applications.
II. Product Overview
360AI Browser utilizes a dual-engine approach: "answer-based search" and "knowledge base reading." On one hand, AI search directly provides structured answers and offers extended reading paths, ideal for quickly gathering information on uncertain questions. On the other hand, when opening web pages, papers, documents, or videos, the AI knowledge base automatically generates summaries, article outlines, and mind maps, helping users quickly grasp key points and form reusable knowledge structures. The product also offers "AI video editing" capabilities for creators, supporting text-based segmentation and editing to improve content production efficiency. The current version provides a Windows installer, as well as a mobile app and a Mac beta version; feature coverage may vary depending on the platform and version.
