Feishu / Lark AI features and pricing (November 2026)

Feishu, known internationally as Lark, is ByteDance's workplace platform combining chat, documents and an HR module called Feishu People, now built around AI agents integrated into daily work.

Feishu is ByteDance's China-based version of its workplace platform, headquartered in Beijing, while the international version, Lark, is operated from Singapore. Beyond chat and document collaboration, the Feishu People module automates recruiting, performance evaluation, motivation and training, including an OKR system, and the platform offers a free plan alongside paid tiers.

Since Feishu 8.0, the vendor treats AI agents as a core part of the product, connected to its Doubao Workspace AI assistant, rather than a bolt-on feature.

• Puts AI agents directly into daily workflowsSince version 8.0, AI agents are built into Feishu as first-class parts of the workspace, connected to the Doubao Workspace assistant, rather than a separate chatbot window. Employees and HR staff can trigger AI help inside the same chat, doc or workflow they are already using.
• Runs recruiting, evaluation and training in one HR moduleFeishu People automates parts of recruiting, performance evaluation, motivation and training, including a built-in OKR system. HR teams manage several processes from one module instead of separate point tools.
• Summarizes meetings automaticallyAn AI-assisted meeting recorder transcribes calls and produces an automatic summary afterwards. Attendees and absent colleagues get a usable record without someone manually writing meeting minutes.

• Runs as two distinct products: Feishu for the Chinese market, hosted in China, and Lark internationally, hosted and operated from Singapore.
• Combines chat, documents and video with a dedicated HR module (Feishu People), rather than being an HR system with bolted-on messaging.
• Offers a free plan, unlike most enterprise HCM suites in this comparison that are quote based only.

Feishu is the Chinese version of the ByteDance platform, headquartered in Beijing with data hosted in China, distinct from its internationally hosted counterpart Lark, which is operated from Singapore.

Feishu and Lark are the same platform split into a China-hosted and an internationally hosted version, so which one you buy and where data sits depends on your market. Ask which independent security certifications apply to your version. Because Feishu People supports evaluation and performance reviews, PIPL Article 24 lets employees demand an explanation and refuse decisions made solely by automated means.

• PIPL gives employees a right to refuse automated decisions
• Platforms must negotiate algorithm rules with unions
• Exemption for cross-border transfer of employee data
