FreeA UI-focused agent for Windows OS interaction using GPT-Vision
About Paper
UFO is an open-source UI-focused agent designed for Windows OS interaction. It leverages GPT-Vision to understand and analyze graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and control information of Windows applications. Using a dual-agent framework, UFO can observe, navigate, and operate within individual applications and across multiple applications to fulfill user requests entirely through natural language commands. The framework includes a control interaction module that enables action grounding without human intervention, allowing fully automated execution. UFO was tested across nine popular Windows applications and is reported to be the first UI agent specifically tailored for task completion within the Windows OS environment.
