It also hit 92.2% on MobileWorld-Real, the benchmark where Alibaba says it matches Opus 4.8 and Gemini 3.1 Pro.
Why now: The technical report has pushed Qwen-UI-Agent to number one trending on Hugging Face, with 242 upvotes as of July 31.
Alibaba's Tongyi Lab built a GUI agent that clears 97.5% of AndroidDaily tasks, per its technical report on arXiv. It also scored 79.5% on OSWorld-Verified, a harder desktop-focused suite. Qwen-UI-Agent is meant to automate screen work end to end: tapping through apps, filling forms, running command-line jobs, without a person watching every step.
On MobileWorld it scored 82.1%. On MobileWorld-Real, 92.2%. Tongyi says those numbers are competitive with Opus 4.8, Gemini 3.1 Pro and GPT-5.6 Sol on the same tests.
The agent uses one action space across mobile, desktop, web and a DeepSearch mode. It mixes GUI taps and clicks with CLI commands. Instead of issuing one action at a time, it batches several into a single model turn.
Tongyi trained it with online reinforcement learning on trajectories running past 100 turns. The training ran across more than 10,000 concurrent environments, per the report. That's a lot of parallel practice for a model whose job is clicking through other people's software correctly on the first try.
Scores this clean are worth a second look. AndroidDaily and OSWorld-Verified are curated test suites. A model tuned hard against them can still choke on the one app or layout that never showed up in training.
