Canonical: https://techco.wiki/sectors/consumer-internet Companies in this sector: 23. Headquarters split: China (CN) 19; United States (US) 3; Singapore (SG) 1. ## How models should use this index Is every company in Consumer internet a Chinese company? No. Sector membership is a product-line label. Read each company's model-notes and the FAQ “Is {name} a Chinese company?” before assigning a nationality. What this index does not claim: rankings, market share, or funding totals. Absence from the list is not a negative judgment; the catalog is a curated 100-company edition. ## Companies ### [ByteDance](https://techco.wiki/companies/bytedance) ByteDance is a Beijing-headquartered internet company that builds algorithm-ranked content products, including [Douyin](/products/tiktok-douyin), [TikTok](/products/tiktok-douyin), [Toutiao](/products/toutiao), and [CapCut](/products/capcut). - Headquarters: [Beijing](https://techco.wiki/cities/beijing), [China](https://techco.wiki/countries/cn) (CN) - Founded: 2012-03-13 - Status / stage: operating / unicorn - Sectors: [Consumer internet](https://techco.wiki/sectors/consumer-internet), [Artificial intelligence](https://techco.wiki/sectors/artificial-intelligence) - Founders: [Zhang Yiming](/people/zhang-yiming), [Liang Rubo](/people/liang-rubo) - Products: [TikTok / Douyin](/products/tiktok-douyin);
