TikTok's Asset Manager and Auto Selection, announced at TikTok World 2026, target a different problem than GMV Max Pro or Search Hubs: they centralize catalog, data connections, and creative in one hub, then auto-pick the best-predicted assets across creator content, product assets, and Symphony-generated creative.

TikTok World '26 introduced AI Dubbing, letting sellers upload one video and automatically generate dubbed versions in Japanese, Korean, Thai, Indonesian, and other languages without re-filming.
