+
+## 📚 Introduction
+
+**WebWorld** is a large-scale **open-web world model** series for training and evaluating web agents. It is trained on **1M+ real-world web interaction trajectories** via a scalable hierarchical data pipeline, supporting:
+
+- **Long-horizon simulation** (30+ steps)
+- **Multi-format state representations**: A11y Tree, HTML, XML, Markdown, and natural language
+- **CoT-activated reasoning** for transition prediction
+- **Cross-domain generalization** to code, GUI, and game environments
+
+Agents trained on WebWorld-synthesized trajectories achieve **+9.9% on MiniWob++** and **+10.9% on WebArena**. When used for inference-time lookahead search, WebWorld **outperforms GPT-5** as a world model.
+
+## 🎯 Model Series
+
+| Model | Base Model | Link |
+|---|---|---|
+| **WebWorld-8B** | [Qwen3-8B](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-8B) | [🤗 HuggingFace](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/WebWorld-8B) |
+| **WebWorld-14B** | [Qwen3-14B](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-14B) | [🤗 HuggingFace](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/WebWorld-14B) |
+| **WebWorld-32B** | [Qwen3-32B](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-32B) | [🤗 HuggingFace](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/WebWorld-32B) |
+
+**Dataset**: [Qwen/WebWorldData](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Qwen/WebWorldData)
+
+💡 **Recommendation**: Use 8B for fast simulation and data synthesis; use 14B/32B for higher-fidelity simulation and better long-horizon robustness. For best results in a specific environment, we recommend task-specific fine-tuning on in-domain trajectories.
+
+## 🛠️ Requirements
+
+- `transformers` (recommended: latest version)
+- `torch`
+- Optional: `accelerate`, `vllm` for efficient serving
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+**Key Notes:**
+- WebWorld predicts the next page state given the current state and an action.
+- It strictly preserves the input/output format (A11y / HTML / XML / Markdown / NL).
+- Supports multi-turn trajectory simulation up to 30+ steps.

+### Multi-Turn Simulation
+
+The first turn provides the initial state and first action. Each subsequent turn uses a fixed continuation prompt:

+```python
+CONTINUE_PROMPT = (
+    "Continue the trajectory. Given the previous state, "

+state_1 = generate(messages)  # your generate function
+
+# Turn 2

+messages.append({"role": "user", "content": CONTINUE_PROMPT.format(action=action_1)})

+messages.append({"role": "user", "content": CONTINUE_PROMPT.format(action=action_2)})
+state_3 = generate(messages)
+```

+
+## 🎮 Action Space
+
+WebWorld supports a unified action space as Python-style function calls:
+
+| Category | Action | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Element** | `click(bid, button, modifiers)` | Click a DOM element by its ID |
+| | `fill(bid, text, press_enter)` | Type text into an input field |
+| | `select_option(bid, options)` | Select from a dropdown / combobox |
+| | `hover(bid)` | Hover over an element |
+| **Mouse** | `mouse_move(x, y)` | Move cursor to coordinates |
+| | `mouse_click(x, y, button)` | Click at coordinates |
+| | `mouse_down(x, y)` / `mouse_up(x, y)` | Press / release (drag-and-drop) |
+| **Keyboard** | `keyboard_press(key)` | Press a key (e.g., `Enter`, `Tab`) |
+| | `keyboard_type(text)` | Type a string sequentially |
+| **Browser** | `scroll(dx, dy)` | Scroll the viewport |
+| | `goto(url)` | Navigate to a URL |
+| | `go_back()` / `go_forward()` | Browser history navigation |
+| | `tab_new()` / `tab_close()` / `tab_focus(index)` | Manage browser tabs |
+| **Meta** | `send_msg_to_user(text)` | Send a message to the user |
+| | `noop(wait_ms)` | Wait for a duration |
+| | `infeasible(reason)` | Declare the task impossible |
+
+## 📊 Performance
+
+### Intrinsic Evaluation (WebWorld-Bench)
+
+WebWorld-Bench evaluates models using **Factuality Score** (functional correctness) and **Web Turing Score** (perceptual realism) across nine dimensions:
+
+| Model | Avg Factuality | Avg Turing |
+|---|---|---|
+| GPT-4o | 59.5 | 35.4 |
+| Claude-Opus-4.1 | **71.3** | **47.4** |
+| Gemini-3-Pro | 70.3 | 43.2 |
+| Qwen3-8B (base) | 26.9 | 17.4 |
+| **WebWorld-8B** | **70.1** | **42.2** |
+| **WebWorld-14B** | 70.7 | 44.7 |
+| **WebWorld-32B** | **71.0** | **45.6** |
+
+### Extrinsic Evaluation (Agent Training)
+
+| Model | MiniWob++ SR | WebArena SR |
+|---|---|---|
+| GPT-4o | 64.3% | 26.6% |
+| Qwen3-8B (base) | 49.4% | 9.8% |
+| **Qwen3-8B + WebWorld** | **59.3%** (+9.9%) | **20.7%** (+10.9%) |
+| Qwen3-14B (base) | 54.9% | 15.1% |
+| **Qwen3-14B + WebWorld** | **63.2%** (+8.3%) | **24.3%** (+9.2%) |
+
+### Cross-Domain Generalization
+
+| Environment | Qwen3-8B | WebWorld-8B | Gain |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| API Services | 0.088 | **0.299** | +0.211 |
+| Code | 0.147 | **0.396** | +0.249 |
+| Game | 0.253 | **0.473** | +0.220 |
+| GUI Desktop | 0.322 | **0.705** | +0.383 |
+
+## ⚠️ Limitations
+
+- **Sycophancy / optimism bias**: the model may generate outcomes that are overly favorable to the agent's intended action.
+- **Content generation fidelity**: long-form, high-precision content (e.g., scientific articles) is not the primary target.
+- **Text-only**: WebWorld does not simulate visual / pixel-level rendering.
