Fara-7B
Version: 2
Fara is a multimodal web agent model that observes the browser and acts on behalf of the user by emitting tool‑calls (e.g., click(x,y), type, scroll, select) to complete web tasks end‑to‑end. Fara is trained on data generated by a scalable multi‑agent pipeline that synthesizes diverse web tasks, executes trajectories to solve them, and verifies those trajectories. Resulting SFT recipes target task completion, action grounding, and safe behavior.
Fara supports automating web tasks: shopping, booking travel, restaurant reservations, info seeking, account workflows. Fara has a context length of 128 tokens. Our training datasets are sourced from multiple pipelines. Data generation starts with bottom-up seed sites and task proposals, where multi-agent solvers and verifiers produce validated trajectories. Grounding relies on curated datasets that predict actions and on-screen coordinates. UI understanding is built through visual question answering, captioning, and OCR on web page screenshots collected during data generation. Finally, safety and instruction-following are reinforced with refusal and harm-prevention datasets, along with instruction-following data that help models decide when to terminate or act appropriately.
Intended Use
Primary Use Cases
Automating web tasks: shopping, booking travel, restaurant reservations, info seeking, account workflows.Out-of-Scope Use Cases
Our models are not specifically designed or evaluated for all downstream purposes. Developers should consider common limitations of language models as they select use cases, and evaluate and mitigate for accuracy, safety, and fairness before using within a specific downstream use case, particularly for high-risk scenarios. Developers should be aware of and adhere to applicable laws or regulations (including privacy, trade compliance laws, etc.) that are relevant to their use case, including the model’s focus on English. High‑risk domains requiring certified reliability (medical, legal decisions), or fully autonomous execution without human oversight for financial/destructive actions. Require additional verification and product guardrails Nothing contained in this Model Card should be interpreted as or deemed a restriction or modification to the license the model is released under.Responsible AI Considerations
Like other language models, the web agent model can potentially behave in ways that are unfair, unreliable, or offensive. Some of the limiting behaviors to be aware of include: Quality of Service: The model is trained primarily on English text. Languages other than English will experience worse performance. English language varieties with less representation in the training data might experience worse performance than standard American English. Fara is not intended to support multilingual use. Representation of Harms & Perpetuation of Stereotypes: These models can over- or under-represent groups of people, erase representation of some groups, or reinforce demeaning or negative stereotypes. Despite safety post-training, these limitations may still be present due to differing levels of representation of different groups or prevalence of examples of negative stereotypes in training data that reflect real-world patterns and societal biases. Inappropriate or Offensive Content: These models may produce other types of inappropriate or offensive content, which may make it inappropriate to deploy for sensitive contexts without additional mitigations that are specific to the use case. Information Reliability: Language models can generate nonsensical content or fabricate content that might sound reasonable but is inaccurate or outdated. Developers should apply responsible AI best practices and are responsible for ensuring that a specific use case complies with relevant laws and regulations (e.g. privacy, trade, etc.). Using safety services like Azure AI Content Safety that have advanced guardrails is highly recommended. Important areas for consideration include: Allocation: Models may not be suitable for scenarios that could have consequential impact on legal status or the allocation of resources or life opportunities (ex: housing, employment, credit, etc.) without further assessments and additional debiasing techniques. High-Risk Scenarios: Developers should assess suitability of using models in high-risk scenarios where unfair, unreliable or offensive outputs might be extremely costly or lead to harm. This includes providing advice in sensitive or expert domains where accuracy and reliability are critical (ex: legal or health advice). Additional safeguards should be implemented at the application level according to the deployment context. Misinformation: Models may produce inaccurate information. Developers should follow transparency best practices and inform end-users they are interacting with an AI system. At the application level, developers can build feedback mechanisms and pipelines to ground responses in use-case specific, contextual information, a technique known as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG).- Generation of Harmful Content: Developers should assess outputs for their context and use available safety classifiers or custom solutions appropriate for their use case.
- Misuse: Other forms of misuse such as fraud, spam, or malware production may be possible, and developers should ensure that their applications do not violate applicable laws and regulations.
