Pushing the scientific frontier

Our research spans the fundamental challenges of building intelligent agents that interact with digital environments.

Visual Understanding

How do agents perceive and interpret graphical interfaces? We study screen comprehension, UI element recognition, and spatial reasoning.

Action & Planning

Research into how agents decompose complex tasks, plan action sequences, and adapt strategies when encountering unexpected states.

Benchmarks & Evaluation

Developing rigorous methodologies to measure agent capabilities, compare approaches, and track progress toward general computer use.

Safety & Alignment

Ensuring agents act within intended boundaries. Research on oversight mechanisms, failure modes, and alignment with human values.

Long-horizon Tasks

Understanding how agents maintain context, recover from errors, and complete workflows that span extended time periods.

Human-Agent Collaboration

Studying effective interaction patterns between humans and agents. When should agents act autonomously vs. seek guidance?

Why we exist

Computer use agents represent a fundamental shift in how humans interact with technology. We believe this transition must be guided thoughtfully.

01

Advance the science

Conduct and publish foundational research that pushes the boundaries of what computer use agents can achieve. Open problems require open collaboration.

02

Build in the open

Develop open-source tools, datasets, and benchmarks that accelerate progress across the entire field. Knowledge should be shared, not siloed.

03

Convene the community

Create spaces for researchers, engineers, and policymakers to discuss the most important questions about intelligence and its role in society.

04

Ensure broad benefit

Guide the development of computer use agents so their benefits are widely distributed. Technology this powerful should serve humanity, not just a few.

05

Shape the discourse

Facilitate rigorous discussion on safety, ethics, and governance. The decisions we make now will define how this technology evolves.
