WorkFactory Scales Professional Task Generation for Agent Training, Yields WorkPilot
IQuestLab · hf · 2026-10-30
IQuest Research, with Zhejiang University, Renmin University, SJTU, and Peking University, propose WorkFactory, a framework for scaling supervised training data for working agents.
- Problem: training working agents needs diverse professional tasks with reliably verifiable outcomes; manual construction doesn't scale
- Method: converts professional intents into coherent, executable work via information planning and repair
- Result: resulting WorkPilot models improve expert-level agent performance across benchmarks
