Luo Yonghao sells AI coding tool on livestream, lowering software development threshold

Tech livestreamer Luo Yonghao showcased the AI coding platform TRAE, demonstrating how people with zero coding experience can build functional software using natural language.

During a recent double-11 livestream, veteran entrepreneur Luo Yonghao demonstrated the capabilities of TRAE, an AI development platform. Despite claiming he cannot write a single line of code, Luo used natural language prompts to generate data reports, create presentation slides, and build a custom voice-input desktop application within hours.

This trend reflects a maturing AI market where abstract chat models are giving way to practical coding agents that handle messy background tasks like environment configuration. Industry reports indicate that software development is undergoing its biggest paradigm shift since the graphical user interface, empowering non-technical creators and independent workers to build custom digital tools without hefty outsourcing costs.
