Introducing Ego2Web from Google DeepMind and UNC Chapel Hill, accepted to #CVPR2026. AI agents can browse the web. But can they act based on what you see? Existing benchmarks focus only on web interaction while ignoring the real world. Ego2Web bridges egocentric video perception and web execution, enabling agents... show more

Why do we need Ego2Web? Today’s benchmarks split into two worlds: • Egocentric video → real-world perception & reasoning • Web agents → perception + action, but only in digital environments But real tasks require both seeing something and acting on it. Existing benchmarks miss this connection.

What is the Ego2Web task? Given an egocentric video and a natural language instruction. An agent must: 1. Ground visual cues from the video 2. Plan actions 3. Execute steps on real websites Tasks span diverse domains: E-commerce (find/buy items you saw), Media retrieval (find related videos), Knowledge lookup (identify & query entities), Maps/local (locate places from visual cues) Success = completing the web task based on what was seen

How do we build and evaluate Ego2Web? We use a hybrid human-model pipeline: • MLLMs → dense video captions → “video profiles” • LLMs → generate grounded web tasks • Humans → verify grounding, feasibility, quality For evaluation, we introduce Ego2WebJudge, an LLM-as-a-Judge that checks if actions align with visual evidence (~84% human agreement).

How do current agents perform? We evaluate leading systems (GPT-5.4, Claude, Gemini-based agents, etc.) We find that even the best agent reaches only ~58% success rate, and there is a large gap for improvements, demonstrating that current agents struggle to connect perception and action.

What’s hard about Ego2Web? Error analysis reveals key bottlenecks: • 36% object misidentification • 18% temporal misunderstanding • 16% failure to retrieve the correct info • 12% Cross-modal alignment remains fragile Also, we find Raw video >> captions >> no vision, which means perception quality directly drives success. This is still an open problem.

Admittedly I'm not an expert on web agents, but I'm 90% sure this is the missing link. Does it handle German recipe sites with their 47 cookie banners though?

Connecting egocentric vision with web execution feels like a missing piece. How robust is it in noisy real-world scenarios?
