Shenzhen, July 3, 2026 — Shenzhen Muyan Education Technology Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Muyan Education”), the principal operating entity of Guardforce AI's AI Education subsidiary, MGAI Limited (“MGAI”), today announced a strategic partnership with Zhongmi Interconnection (Shenzhen) Health Technology Co., Ltd. (“Zhongmi Interconnection”). Zhongmi Interconnection develops and operates the Rice AI system, focused on intelligent rehabilitation for children on the autism spectrum. The autism intervention AI module is now fully live on Muyan Education's service platform. Therapists across more than 500 hospitals and rehabilitation institutions in mainland China can now access both speech rehabilitation and autism intervention capabilities within a single platform.
API Integration Brings Two Platforms Together, Reaching 500+ Institutions and a Million Families
Autism intervention programs typically span multiple training dimensions — cognition, social skills, behavior, and language — but language is only one component, and often not addressed in depth. When a child's language difficulties are more complex and require specialized speech correction, institutions have historically needed to seek that expertise separately, managed apart from the autism intervention plan. Now, the two systems can operate within a single platform.
Muyan Education focuses on children's speech and language rehabilitation and has deployed its platform across more than 500 institutions in mainland China. Zhongmi Interconnection develops and operates the Rice AI system, focused on intelligent rehabilitation for children on the autism spectrum, spanning assessment, intervention, and at-home training. Under the partnership agreement, Zhongmi Interconnection is integrating Rice AI's assessment engine, intervention plan generation, and AI-assisted courseware capabilities as modules within Muyan Education's assessment and instruction system. At the same time, the two systems are being technically connected, and Muyan Education's speech correction tools will similarly become available on Zhongmi Interconnection's service platform.
The autism intervention module is available as a paid add-on. Muyan Education's existing base of 500-plus institutional clients can activate it without any additional hardware. Zhongmi Interconnection's institutional clients will also gain access to Muyan Education's speech correction capabilities, which extend beyond autism-related language needs to cover cleft palate, stuttering, and developmental language delay.
A New User Group, A New Path to Product Improvement
This partnership opens more than a distribution channel. The autism intervention module is available as a paid add-on, and Muyan Education's existing base of 500-plus institutional clients can activate it without any additional hardware.
At the same time, Muyan Education's speech correction tools will also be available on Zhongmi Interconnection's service platform, reaching children on the autism spectrum who have historically been hard to access—expanding coverage and opening opportunities for future data collaboration as part of a long-term partnership.
This partnership currently serves the mainland China market, in Mandarin, and is now live on Muyan Education's service platform.
