Abstract
Current AI agents struggle with long-horizon professional GUI workflows, achieving low success rates due to issues with workflow consistency and domain-specific software understanding.
Recent years have witnessed the rapid evolution of AI agents toward handling increasingly complex, real-world tasks. However, existing benchmarks rarely evaluate whether agents can operate graphical user interfaces to complete long-horizon, high-value professional workflows across diverse domains. Current GUI benchmarks still predominantly focus on general-purpose software, relatively simple applications, and short-horizon tasks, leaving it largely unknown whether modern agents can follow user instructions to autonomously operate domain-specificprofessional softwareand accomplish economically valuable work in an end-to-end manner. To bridge this gap, we introduce Workflow-GYM, a benchmark for long-horizon GUI tasks centered on professional domains and specialized software environments. Through extensive experiments on state-of-the-art models, we find that even the strongest models achieve only slightly above 30% success rates, highlighting that professional long-horizon GUI workflows remain highly challenging for currentGUI agents. Further analysis reveals that current agents struggle to maintain long-horizonworkflow consistency, frequently exhibiting workflow stage omission,error propagation,objective drift, and insufficient understanding ofprofessional softwareenvironments. Our findings provide important insights into the limitations of current agent systems and suggest key directions for the next generation of GUI-agent research.
