Youtu-agent uses open source model support as a core design concept, based on the following technical considerations:
- cost control: Open-source model API calls such as DeepSeek-V3 cost about 1/10th of closed-source models, with significant savings in the long term
- data securitySensitive business data does not need to be transferred to third-party servers, meeting compliance requirements in financial/medical industries.
- performance optimization: The framework is fine-tuned with commands for models such as LLAMA3 and DeepSeek, and its accuracy exceeds that of the GPT-4 version in GAIA tests.
Specific benefits for developers include:
- Freedom of deployment: Support localized deployment of open source models to avoid network latency and quota restrictions for API services
- Customized space: models can be trained for domain adaptation (e.g., legal/medical verticals)
- technical control: Complete knowledge of the internal mechanisms of the model for debugging and optimization
Empirical data shows that using the open source model with 7B parameters together with the framework optimization, a completion of 78% can be achieved in the WebWalkerQA task, which has reached the commercial-grade standard.
