There isn't a viable computer use model that can be ran locally yet unfortunately. Am extremely excited for the day that happens though. Essentially the key capability that makes a model a computer use model is precise coordinate generation.
So if you come across a local model that can do that well, let us know! We're also keeping a close watch.

What would it take to train your own?

I don't know too much about training your own computer use model other than it would probably be a very hefty, very expensive task.
However, I believe ByteDance released UI-TARS which is an excellent open source computer use model according to some articles I read. You could run that locally. We haven't tested it so I wouldn't know how it performs, but sounds like it's definitely worth exploring!

Haven’t looked into them much but I thought the Chinese labs had released some for this kind of thing

You are correct in that ByteDance did releas UI-TARS which sounds like a really good open source computer use model according to some articles I read. You could run that locally. We haven't tested it so I wouldn't know how it performs, but sounds like it's definitely worth exploring!
My PC is just good enough to run a DeepSeek distill. Is that on par with the requirements for your model?
