Recently, the 2025 Sina Education Annual Gala was held with great success. TAL received the honor of "2025 Outstanding Comprehensive Education Group" for its exceptional performance in the education and technology fields. As leading platforms in education media, Sina Education and Weibo Education have continuously witnessed the evolution of China’s education industry. This prestigious award symbolizes the industry's high recognition of TAL's commitment to reshaping the education ecosystem through AI while adhering to its original mission of cultivating talents.
Having dedicated itself to education technology for over 20 years, TAL, formerly known as Xueersi, was established in 2003 and listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 2010. It was officially renamed in 2013. Today, TAL has built a diversified business ecosystem with well-known brands such as Enrichment Learning, Xueersi Online, MathGPT, and Smart Devices gaining widespread recognition.
As a company rooted in content and technology and strategically focused on education, science innovation, and science popularization, TAL’s achievements in the AI domain within its Sci-tech Education and Innovation segments are particularly remarkable. Its independently developed MathGPT is among the first officially registered educational large models in China and has received the highest 4+ rating certification from the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT). This model provides full curriculum and subject coverage, offering key capabilities such as intelligent problem-solving, grading, question explaining, and learning analysis. Additionally, this year, TAL, in collaboration with Beijing Normal University, developed the "Master Unlimited Possibilities" foundational education large model, the first model closely aligned with China’s new curriculum standards. This model, featuring smart problem-solving based on knowledge comprehension and guide-based intelligent Q&A, has been deployed in Beijing Education Bureau's AI Applications Market and piloted in over 60 schools across Haidian and Dongcheng districts.
In the face of industry transformation, TAL remains steadfast in long-term investment in AI. Starting research data accumulation in 2003, establishing AI Lab in 2017, and operating the National Open Innovation Platform for Next Generation Artificial Intelligence in 2019, TAL's over two decades of technological groundwork have enabled it to thrive amidst the current AI wave. TAL’s AI applications are deeply integrated across diverse scenarios:
In the realm of talent development, TAL has deeply integrated the philosophy of "Questioning leads to better learning” into its heuristic teaching framework. By embedding interactive scenarios into foundational courses such as science and coding, TAL fosters children’s innovative thinking and AI-management skills. On the front of social responsibility, TAL’s philanthropic initiative, "The First AI Class for Children," extended to more than 120 primary schools across the nation, benefiting over 20,000 students. Donations of AI learning devices equipped with smart lesson-planning and essay-grading functionalities have been made to rural areas, benefitting 40 schools in 19 provinces and cities, thereby advancing the digital development of rural education.
Looking forward, TAL is expected to further its exploration in the education + technology segment. While maintaining the integrity of education, TAL continues breaking educational boundaries through technological innovations, injecting powerful AI dynamics into the ecosystem of lifelong learning.
