   Hands-on comparison of three personal Agents: Lingguang 2.0, Today AI, and Alice

   Using identical task instructions, the author tests three personal Agents—Lingguang 2.0, Today AI, and Alice—across five dimensions: app connections, task execution, long-term memory, proactive service, and interaction experience. Lingguang 2.0 can understand continuous instructions but often requires manual finishing during execution; Today AI proactively detects alarm-setting issues and switches to calendar reminders; Alice stands out for its complete persona and Moments interaction but is weaker at cross-app execution. The author believes that app interface permissions are the main obstacle for personal Agents, and that connecting many apps does not mean users can truly make use of them.

   TMTPost reviews the path of Ant Group's Lingguang from 1.0's flash app generation to 2.0's pivot to Personal Agent, with the team collectively speaking out on Xiaohongshu to explain the product positioning. Lingguang 1.0 surpassed 500,000 downloads on its third day and over 2 million by its sixth day, but in March 2026 its three-day retention rate for new users was only 21.2%, lower than Doubao's 30.92% and Qwen's 27.99%. The article also compares Meta Muse's 10.2 million downloads in the U.S. market within 40 days of launch, as well as the concentrated launches of domestic Personal Agent products such as Today, LightVela, and Qwen Go.
