Exhibit 99.1
GD Culture Group Limited to Launch AI Immersive Reading Platform, Inviting Global Storytellers to Join
NEW YORK, August 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GD Culture Group Limited (“GDC” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: GDC), and its subsidiary, AI Catalysis Corp. (“AI Catalysis”), today announced the upcoming launch of its AI Immersive Reading Platform (the “Platform”), an innovative ecosystem currently in its development and testing stage, designed to redefine how stories are created, shared, and enjoyed. This development marks a major milestone for the Company in interactive storytelling and opens the door for creators worldwide to participate in shaping a new future for digital narratives by joining its founding community.
Unlike traditional reading platforms, this pioneering ecosystem transforms storytelling into an interactive, personalized journey. Powered by AI technology, the Platform allows readers to move beyond passive consumption by shaping the narrative through choosing the direction of the story, interacting with characters in immersive, chat-like conversations, and personalizing story worlds by adjusting backgrounds, settings, and plotlines.
For creators, the Platform provides intuitive, AI-driven tools that streamline the writing process and make it easier to develop adaptive, immersive story scripts. Once published, stories will be made available through a subscription model that shares revenue with creators, establishing a sustainable and rewarding ecosystem where imagination is celebrated and creativity thrives.
Mr. Xiaojian Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “We are dedicated to applying AI technology in innovative ways to build a dynamic ecosystem where creators, readers, and stories form deeper, lasting connections. By leveraging cutting-edge technology, we aim to transform storytelling into an experience that is more engaging, personalized, and interactive. The Platform is a key step in our broader strategy of applying AI tools across diverse scenarios, with this initiative focusing on building a sustainable community that values originality, rewards creativity, and welcomes bold new ideas.”
The Company expects to launch the Platform to the public by the fourth quarter of 2025 or early 2026. It is currently building a vibrant community of creators who want to explore the future of storytelling. Whether you are a storyteller, writer, game designer, or creator with bold new ideas, GDC is excited to welcome you into the community, where imagination is nurtured and creativity is celebrated, and early participants will gain access to the tools, resources, and exclusive opportunities that will shape the future of interactive storytelling ahead of the official launch.
