SoftwareGym: Scaling Computer-Use Agent Training with Diverse Synthesized Software Environments

Computer-use agents (CUAs) are rapidly improving, yet synthesizing diverse and reliable software environments at scale remains challenging.

Key points

  • Browser-hosted environments provide limited interaction depth and workflow complexity.
  • These limitations motivate SoftwareGym, an automated pipeline for synthesizing GUI software environments with diverse interfaces, executable functionality, and runtime-verified behavior.
  • We construct SoftwareGym-Bench, a 120-task evaluation suite spanning the same twelve categories, and use trajectories collected from these environments for CUA training.
  • These results demonstrate the potential of synthesized software environments as scalable and transferable supervision for CUA training.
