Miaoya is an AI-based design platform for trendy and creative artists, jointly developed by Bigo Entertainment and Alibaba Token Foundry. At its core, it utilizes Alibaba’s self-developed Wan series of large-scale image models.

It targets a very specific niche: the design of trendy toys. In the past, the entry barrier for this industry was that having an idea for a character meant facing a series of professional challenges, such as modeling, rendering, and working with materials, before you could even create a prototype. What Miaoya aims to achieve is to enable creators to define the appearance of their characters using natural language and reference images, thereby facilitating the further development of those concepts throughout the entire industrial chain.

The phrase “All inspiration comes from you” displayed on the official website’s homepage clearly outlines its position: the platform provides the necessary production capabilities, while the creativity belongs to the creators. Being backed by Damai Entertainment means that it possesses resources for IP management and offline distribution channels – an advantage that goes beyond the functions of a mere image-generation tool. This means that the designs created through this platform have the real potential to be brought into actual production.

At present, its operations mainly consist of organizing activities and soliciting creative contributions. Creators in the fields of trendy toys, collectibles, and IP-related content deserve special attention; however, if one simply wants to generate images, using general-purpose tools is a more straightforward option.
