Key Points
- RiskWebWorld is presented as a realistic interactive benchmark designed specifically to evaluate GUI agents for high-stakes e-commerce risk management, extending beyond previously benign consumer web settings.
- The benchmark includes 1,513 tasks drawn from production risk-control pipelines across eight domains, modeling real operational difficulties such as uncooperative websites and partial environmental hijackments.
- To enable scalable testing and training, the authors provide a Gymnasium-compliant evaluation infrastructure that separates policy planning from environment mechanics.
- Experiments show a large performance gap: top-tier generalist models reach 49.1% task success, while specialized open-weight GUI models perform near-total failure, suggesting model scale is more important than zero-shot interface grounding for long-horizon work.
- Agentic reinforcement learning using the provided infrastructure improves open-source models by 16.2%, demonstrating the benchmark’s usefulness as a testbed for building more reliable “digital workers.”
