On September 26, 2025, Didi officially rolled out the public beta of its AI-Powered Travel Assistant, dubbed "Xiaodi Beta v0.8." After updating the Didi App to the latest version, users can access this feature by simply typing "AI Car Booking" into the destination bar and entering the command code. This innovative function is designed to intelligently interpret user requests and offer tailored travel solutions. It accommodates both voice and text inputs, leveraging real-time traffic data and vehicle availability to present up to three suitable options for users to manually select. During the public beta phase, Didi encourages users to provide detailed descriptions of their needs to enhance the accuracy of matches. Furthermore, Didi has introduced the MCP service for developers, significantly reducing the entry barriers for AI developers looking to integrate advanced travel functionalities.
