Tencent’s QClaw to stop operating on December 24

Tencent’s QClaw AI assistant will stop operating at midnight on December 24, 2026, citing business adjustments. The service stopped accepting new registrations and halted subscription purchases and renewals on September 24, while existing users can continue using the service until the shutdown date. QClaw users can back up their configurations, memories, agent personas and chat records before the shutdown. Tencent is also providing a migration path to WorkBuddy, with points incentives for users who complete the migration. Backup downloads will remain available until March 24, 2027, after which user data will be deleted except where retention is required by law. [Electronic Engineering Journal, in Chinese]
