What is RecGPT
RecGPT is a hundred-billion-parameter recommendation large model launched by Taotian Group. It has now been fully integrated into the "Guess You Like" feed on the Taobao mobile app homepage. Based on the integration of multimodal cognition, user behavior analysis, and real-time hotspot understanding, it accurately captures users' long-term interests and dynamic needs. For example, if a user has previously purchased baby-related products, RecGPT estimates the baby's growth stage and recommends age-appropriate products in advance. Experimental data shows that the model has driven double-digit growth in user clicks on the recommendation feed and a 5% increase in add-to-cart counts. The model upgrades the Taobao homepage from a "shelf display" to a "discovery-based shopping venue," improving user experience and platform operational efficiency.
