In an era where borders blur and global trade pulses with opportunity, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) often find themselves straddling both promise and pressure. The landscape is rich with potential but it’s complex, fragmented, and fast-moving. Recognizing this, XTransfer, the world’s leading and China’s No.1 B2B cross-border trade payment platform, is stepping up to empower over 700,000 SMEs in more than 200 countries with something far more powerful than just payments: transformational technology.

At the center of this technological evolution is TradePilot a large language model (LLM) crafted specifically for the foreign trade finance sector. Born in 2023, TradePilot is not just another AI initiative it’s a signal of what’s possible when innovation meets real-world financial pain points. Drawing from advanced AI capabilities like long-context processing, multimodal information extraction, and adaptive agents, it’s designed to interpret the often chaotic, unstructured world of B2B international trade with remarkable clarity and precision.
The results speak volumes. In June 2024, TradePilot achieved what many would have thought improbable: it surpassed both domestic and global AI models, including GPT-4, in rigorous professional finance assessments. That achievement alone is a milestone—not just for XTransfer, but for the growing maturity of China’s AI capabilities in mission-critical industries.

But what truly sets TradePilot apart isn’t just its intelligence—it’s its purpose.
XTransfer has long understood that traditional banks struggle to efficiently serve SMEs in cross-border trade. Manual compliance checks, fragmented data, and outdated processes have created bottlenecks that restrict access to financial services for smaller players. TradePilot is changing that. By transforming unstructured data into actionable insights, it empowers XTransfer to detect risks in real time, identify unusual trading behavior, and ensure AML compliance with a precision that was once unimaginable freeing banks to offer services previously out of reach for SMEs.
Yet the impact of TradePilot doesn’t end with compliance.
It’s also quietly revolutionizing the way XTransfer connects with its users. Customer service, long considered a weak link in scaling global platforms, has undergone a massive transformation. Through TradePilot’s integration, AI-powered support is now more emotionally aware, more accurate in understanding context, and quicker in resolving issues. What once saw a 13% resolution rate has now soared to more than 84%, bringing relief and confidence to thousands of users navigating foreign trade complexities.

In fact, many small businesses now rely on XTransfer not just for payments but for growth. Tools like AI-generated multilingual correspondence, instant website creation, and even a virtual “AI employee” are helping SMEs establish a digital presence and expand into new markets with unprecedented ease. In a matter of seconds, even businesses without tech teams or language experts can position themselves globally—an evolution that’s already benefiting over 10,000 companies.
Underlying all this is XTransfer’s unwavering commitment to security and ethics. Their infrastructure is built with global data protection laws in mind, leveraging strong encryption, permission controls, and real-time audits to ensure user data remains private and protected.
Looking ahead, the company is doubling down on its investment in AI and data-driven tools seeing them not as futuristic add-ons, but as core enablers of equitable, efficient trade. As Weitong Li, XTransfer’s Senior Technology Director, puts it: TradePilot isn’t just a product. It’s a catalyst built to spark a smarter, safer, and more inclusive world of commerce.
In a time when intelligent trade is becoming the norm, XTransfer is not just keeping pace it’s setting the tempo. And for the SMEs at the heart of the global economy, that rhythm is opening doors once thought closed.
