UI-MOPD: Multi-Platform On-Policy Distillation for Unified GUI Agents

Recent advances in multimodal foundation models and agent systems have driven GUI agents from single-platform task execution toward cross-platform interaction. However, unified multi-platform GUI learning remains challenging: high-quality cross-platform trajectories remain scarce, while platforms share transferable capabilities but differ in action semantics and interaction conventions. Naively mixing supervision or merging specialized models can blur native behaviors and produce imbalanced performance. To address these challenges, we construct Uni-GUI, a high-quality dataset containing nearly 10K executable cross-platform interaction trajectories collected through a unified desktop-mobile harness. Building on Uni-GUI, we propose UI-MOPD, the first framework to introduce multi-teacher on-policy distillation (MOPD) into unified multi-platform GUI agent training. UI-MOPD trains a shared student on its own rollouts and dynamically routes each rollout to the corresponding platform-specialized teacher. At student-visited states, teacher guidance serves as a platform-conditioned behavioral anchor, enabling the integration of complementary desktop and mobile expertise without averaging their distinct interaction conventions. On OSWorld and MobileWorld, UI-MOPD achieves task success rates of 38.2% and 12.0%, respectively, outperforming parameter-matched integration strategies while preserving general GUI grounding. These results demonstrate that multi-teacher on-policy distillation provides an effective approach to building unified cross-platform GUI agents. Project page: https://elispectre.github.io/UI-MOPD/.
