Start inside the user's day · Public facts + commercial validation · 2026-09-07
Creators and everyday users want to turn an idea into an AI application others can use directly.
Build and share on other platforms such as Coze or GPTs, hire developers, or give up on apps and publish plain text content.
After building, there was no simple way to publish; sharing and running an app took technical steps that block non-coders.
The trend: content communities are turning AI from a Q&A box into applications users build and distribute themselves, moving knowledge delivery from articles to runnable small tools. Entry point: skip the general-purpose platform battle; target professionals in specific industries who assemble small tools for their followers or clients.
Zhihu ships with an existing audience and content context, so creators can build and publish inside a familiar community, cutting migration and hosting friction.
