Sogou Baike (Chinese: 搜狗百科; pinyin: Sōugǒu Bǎikē; Sogou Encyclopedia, formerly Soso Baike) is a Chinese-language collaborative web-based encyclopedia provided by the Chinese tech company Sogou[1] and formerly by the search engine Soso. Sogou is part of Tencent, China's largest internal portal. The encyclopedia was officially launched as Sogou Baike in 2013.[2]

Like Wikipedia, Sogou Baike is a collaboratively written online encyclopedia with user-generated content,[3] though it is operated by a for-profit company rather than a non-profit organization.[1][4]

In 2018, the publishers of the Hanyu Da Cidian sued Sogou, the parent company of Sogou Baike, for copyright infringement within the encyclopedia. The People's Court of Haidian District in Beijing took on the case.[5]
