Tuya Smart Launches Tuya AI Coding, Enabling Users to Build Their Own AI-Powered Lifestyle Apps with Natural Language

Published

on

HANGZHOU, China, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Tuya Smart (NYSE: TUYA; HKEX: 2391), a global AI cloud platform service provider, has officially launched Tuya AI Coding, an AI-native no-code application development platform enabling users to turn ideas into AI-powered lifestyle applications with just a single prompt.

By describing their ideas, desired features, or interface requirements in natural language, users can generate applications that are runnable, deployable, and capable of powering real AI-driven experiences. The platform also supports one-click deployment and social media platform sharing. The launch of Tuya AI Coding marks a further step in Tuya’s expansion from AI-generated pages to AI applications that can interact with the physical world, broadening the possibilities of the AI Home ecosystem.

AI Application Development Is Moving Beyond Page Generation into Real Life

Gartner has named AI-native application development platforms one of the top strategic technology trends for 2026, predicting that 75% of new applications worldwide will be built using low-code development approaches by year end. Behind this rapid market growth, a new industry shift is emerging: as the barrier to AI application development continues to fall, the standard for evaluating the value of these applications is also changing. Frost & Sullivan’s July report noted that AI-native no-code app generation platforms are evolving from simply “creating apps through conversation” to “enabling complete business delivery,” with competition now expanding beyond app generation capabilities to include deployment, launch, operations, and continuous iteration.

In short, the “last mile” of AI application development is no longer just about generating code — it’s about whether an application can integrate into real-world scenarios. An app confined to the browser, unable to interact with real services, devices, or data, has limited practical value.

This is the challenge Tuya AI Coding was built to solve. Built to seamlessly connect human creativity with AI technology, the platform is designed to ensure that every AI-generated application is capable, from day one, of connecting with real devices, serving real users, and powering real-life experiences.

Turning Ideas into AI Lifestyle Applications with a Single Prompt

Most AI app generation tools on the market today remain limited to the digital world, stopping at the creation of web pages or mini-program interfaces.

Built on Tuya’s global AI+IoT technology stack, Tuya AI Coding comes with three core foundational capabilities: device connectivity, cloud services, and data intelligence. When users input a requirement, the AI does more than generate interfaces and interaction logic. It also automatically builds the full backend architecture, including databases, API gateways, user authentication, and device management, while directly connecting to Tuya’s cloud infrastructure spanning more than 200 countries and regions.

At the same time, Tuya AI Coding leverages Tuya’s extensive AI hardware ecosystem, with native support for access to more than 100,000 SKUs. Foundational capabilities such as device management, data analytics, and weather information services can be added flexibly, enabling seamless integration between software applications and real-world hardware devices.

Empowering Non-Technical Creators to Build AI Lifestyle Experiences

Tuya AI Coding is designed primarily for creative users without technical backgrounds, including designers, product managers, entrepreneurs, freelancers, and students. For these users, the key needs in AI application development are clear: quickly turning ideas into working products, lowering technical barriers, validating concepts at low cost, and gaining a sense of creative achievement.

Traditional development workflows, however, have long stood in the way. High technical barriers, limited resources, slow iteration cycles, and complex tools often prevent creative individuals from bringing their ideas to life.

To address these challenges, Tuya AI Coding offers several core capabilities:

Real-time preview and conversational iteration: During the generation process, the interface is rendered in real time, allowing users to refine details instantly through natural language commands such as “make the button larger” or “add dark mode.”Template library and scenario-based support: Vertical use cases are supported with ready-to-use templates, making development more accessible and efficient.Cross-platform compatibility and one-click deployment: The platform automatically generates applications that work across PCs, smartphones, tablets, and other devices, while enabling one-click cloud deployment and easy social media platform sharing.A fully no-code workflow: What once took months in traditional development can now be compressed into minutes, lowering the technical barrier by 90%.

As the AI industry undergoes a deeper shift in value creation, “unlocking creativity for everyone” is becoming just as important as improving efficiency. As more platforms begin to offer the ability to generate applications with a single sentence, Tuya AI Coding’s differentiation becomes increasingly clear: it not only generates AI applications, but also enables those applications to integrate with Tuya’s AI hardware ecosystem and accelerate real-world transformation.

Tuya AI Coding is now officially available. Users can explore the platform at coding.tuya.ai.

California Supreme Court to Decide Whether Insurers Can Hide Illegal Overcharges Behind Approved Rates, Says Consumer Watchdog

Published

on

By

Ruling Will Impact Millions of State Consumers

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The California Supreme Court will decide whether consumers can sue insurance companies for overcharges that are illegal under Proposition 103, the insurance reform enacted by the voters 38 years ago.

The case before the court concerns a class action lawsuit brought by enlisted policyholders who are good drivers. They allege that USAA, a military insurer, charged them a higher price for auto insurance than it charged officers. Proposition 103 mandates a 20% Good Driver Discount for qualified drivers and state law requires an insurance company to offer good drivers the lowest rate available, regardless of military rank.

Proposition 103 authorizes consumers to challenge violations like that in court. However, some courts have ruled that those lawsuits cannot be brought if the insurance company can argue that the Insurance Commissioner approved the rates being charged.

About 200,000 enlisted USAA customers were overcharged. However, the Supreme Court’s decision will ultimately affect millions of Californians who buy insurance for their autos, homes and businesses.

Ninth Circuit Asks California Supreme Court to Address Pocketbook Issues

The case began in federal court in San Diego, the home of many people in military service. The United States District Court for the Southern District of California ruled that after the passage of Proposition 103, the California legislature passed a bill exempting companies that only insured military personnel from the application of Proposition 103’s protections for good drivers. The plaintiffs appealed to the Ninth Circuit, pointing out that under California’s Constitution the Legislature cannot undermine laws passed by the voters through a ballot initiative.

Before the 9th Circuit, USAA made a second argument, which had been rejected by the District Court: that other state insurance laws shield insurance companies from consumer lawsuits seeking refunds, notwithstanding Proposition 103. Plaintiffs noted that Proposition 103 specifically authorizes lawsuits under the state’s consumer protection laws.

Noting that California courts have adopted conflicting interpretations of Proposition 103, the Ninth Circuit of the United States Court of Appeal then asked California’s Supreme Court to decide these issues of state law.

Representing the enlisted military in the litigation are Consumer Watchdog, the California based non-profit that defends and enforces Proposition 103; Mehri & Skalet, a Washington, D.C.-based law firm specializing in class actions and complex litigation; Mason & Perry LLP, a class action and complex litigation firm also based in D.C., Matthew Seligman, of Grayhawk Law, [more], is leading the plaintiffs’ team before the Supreme Court.

The case is Coleman v. United Services Automobile Association, No. S298496. Review the complaint in the lawsuit. The Ninth Circuit’s certification to the California Supreme Court is available here. (Coleman v. United Services Automobile Ass’n, No. 25-793, slip op. at 3–15 (9th Cir. Sept. 10, 2026)).

Consumer Watchdog is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that advocates for taxpayer and consumer interests, with a particular focus on insurance, health care, privacy, energy, and corporate accountability. Consumer Watchdog represents consumers in proceedings enforcing Proposition 103’s protections.
