UI-Venus-2 Technical Report

UI‑Venus‑2 is a general‑purpose foundation GUI agent that operates across mobile, web, and desktop environments using a unified closed‑loop reasoning‑action framework. The report details how the system expands environment coverage to over 170 multilingual mobile apps and native desktop OSes, scales task generation through a deep‑research pipeline, and enhances verification with trace‑level and sample‑level evaluators that use visual keypoints and multi‑model voting. Safety‑aware mechanisms are also incorporated to control consequential actions, positioning UI‑Venus‑2 as an efficient, open‑source tool for more generalizable, verifiable, and self‑reflective agents in real‑world applications.

Beacon: Knowing When and How to Perform Agentic Visual Reasoning

Beacon is a new agentic visual reasoning model that improves multimodal large language models (MLLMs) by better deciding when to use tools and how to use them. It introduces two key concepts—Mode Adaptiveness, which ensures tools are invoked only when necessary, and Tool Effect, which measures the net benefit of tool use— and trains the model with supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning that rewards necessity-aware decisions and expands capability through expert hints. Across 13 benchmarks, Beacon outperforms other open‑source models, achieving the highest average score and the largest net tool‑gain on diagnostic tests.
