/PRZWT/On March 28th - 29th, the LET'S VISION 2026 Apple ecosystem conference was held in Shanghai. WPS for Pad, a product under Kingsoft Office, made a grand debut. The AI office layout of WPS not only focuses on functional innovation but also achieves full-device coverage. It is currently advancing the largest-scale AI office infrastructure construction in history from multiple dimensions. As the first native desktop-level office application in the iPadOS ecosystem, this product has undergone over 200 days of development and has become a new milestone in the 14-year deep cooperation between Kingsoft Office and the Apple ecosystem.
WPS Office mobile product manager Wang Dawei said, "WPS for Pad has truly made the iPad a 'professional office device', and this is precisely the core goal of Kingsoft Office's collaborative exploration with the Apple ecosystem - to make productivity tools suitable for all office scenarios of users."
14 years of dedicated efforts, setting a new standard for iPad office use
The cooperation between Kingsoft Office and Apple dates back to 2013. After 14 years of in-depth efforts, WPS has fully covered the entire ecosystem of Apple's iOS, macOS, and iPadOS. In 2013, WPS for iOS was released; in 2015, it was selected as one of the App Store's annual top picks; in 2018, WPS for Mac topped the free chart; and in 2023, WPS AI fully empowered the Apple ecosystem. The cooperation between the two has always centered around "improving productivity in all scenarios", and the release of WPS for Pad has taken this cooperation to a new level. This version quickly topped the free total chart of the Apple App Store upon its launch.
Compared with traditional mobile office software, WPS for Pad achieves a highly consistent user experience on the interface design, function layout and interaction logic with the PC version. At the same time, it has been deeply optimized for the touch operation of iPad and the compatibility of keyboard and mouse, balancing the portability of mobile devices with the smoothness of professional office work.
It is reported that the iPad version of WPS for Pad is equipped with WPS AI 3.0 and the native Office intelligent agent WPS Lingxi has been launched simultaneously. It supports one-click document generation, intelligent summary of long documents, and can generate table formulas through natural language and generate PPTs with AI, significantly improving office efficiency. Wang Dawei stated that the AI capabilities of WPS for iPad are centered around making AI an intelligent assistant for iPad's office work, enabling mobile office to go beyond simple document viewing and editing and capable of completing the entire professional workflow from content creation to data analysis.
Wang Dawei pointed out in his speech that the rapid evolution of AI technology over the past three years has been reshaping the office environment. In 2022, WPS was the first to initiate in-depth exploration of the integration of AI and office software. The core exploration direction has always centered around "making AI technology truly applicable in the office environment and enabling ordinary office workers to easily enjoy intelligent efficiency". He proposed that the core positioning of WPS AI is not a simple office tool, but a "smart office partner" for users. This positioning has run through WPS's entire stage of exploration from Prompt interaction to Agent mode, and has also become the core logic for its deep collaboration with the Apple ecosystem.
From Office AI to AI Office, a revolutionary interaction between users, AI and software
In his speech, Wang Dawei focused on elaborating on the industry value of Kingsoft Office's transformation from Office AI to AI Office. He pointed out that the advent of artificial intelligence has brought a brand new experience to the office environment, and office software urgently needs to be systematically innovated and restructured by integrating AI.
Under the traditional Office AI model, AI is merely embedded as an additional feature in the software, and the entire operation relies on human instructions for control. However, the AI Office model constructed by WPS redefines the interaction relationship among users, AI, and the software, upgrading AI to the core capability carrier of the product. This model can actively invoke over a hundred native office skills, comprehensively covering all scenarios of office work such as text, presentation, table, PDF, and collaboration. From intelligent writing, one-click generation of PPT, to data cleaning and automatic organization of meeting minutes, various complex office tasks can be accomplished in one step with high efficiency without the need for additional plugins.
The 2025 financial report data of Kingsoft Office has confirmed the implementation results of the technology strategy: With the dual-track advancement of "Office AI Reconfiguration and Upgrade" and "Native Exploration of AI Office", the user feedback has been remarkable. By the end of 2025, the monthly active users of WPS AI in China have exceeded 801.3 million.
This transformation was not achieved overnight. Kingsoft Office has charted a clear path of advancement: In 2023, WPS AI 1.0 focused on "tool empowerment", embedding AI capabilities such as AIGC (content creation), Copilot (intelligent assistant), and Insight (knowledge insight) into the WPS components, enhancing the tool's capabilities and laying a broad user foundation; In 2024, version 2.0 shifted to "knowledge value mining", building an "enterprise brain" to promote intelligent application of enterprise knowledge, with AI possessing certain industry knowledge and business understanding, capable of providing insights for decision-making; In 2025, the 3.0 version achieved a qualitative change, with its core product WPS Lingxi establishing a new interaction paradigm of "multi-round conversations between humans and AI assistants and continuous revisions", providing intelligent agent services within the native Office environment.
For a long time, Kingsoft Office has focused on the core strategies of "AI, collaboration, and internationalization". As of December 2025, the monthly active devices of WPS Office reached 678 million, among which the monthly active devices in overseas markets reached 245 million, covering 200+ countries and regions. This time, entering the iPadOS ecosystem has achieved comprehensive coverage of the global mainstream tablet ecosystem, successfully bridging the "last mile" for the implementation of tablet productivity.
