Introduction
We present Tongyi DeepResearch, an agentic large language model featuring 30 billion total parameters, with only 3 billion activated per token. Developed by Tongyi Lab, the model is specifically designed for long-horizon, deep information-seeking tasks. Tongyi-DeepResearch demonstrates state-of-the-art performance across a range of agentic search benchmarks, including Humanity's Last Exam, BrowserComp, BrowserComp-ZH, WebWalkerQA, GAIA, xbench-DeepSearch and FRAMES.

Key Features
- ⚙️ Fully automated synthetic data generation pipeline: We design a highly scalable data synthesis pipeline, which is fully automatic and empowers agentic pre-training, supervised fine-tuning, and reinforcement learning.
- 🔄 Large-scale continual pre-training on agentic data: Leveraging diverse, high-quality agentic interaction data to extend model capabilities, maintain freshness, and strengthen reasoning performance.
- 🔁 End-to-end reinforcement learning: We employ a strictly on-policy RL approach based on a customized Group Relative Policy Optimization framework, with token-level policy gradients, leave-one-out advantage estimation, and selective filtering of negative samples to stabilize training in a non‑stationary environment.
- 🤖 Agent Inference Paradigm Compatibility: At inference, Tongyi-DeepResearch is compatible with two inference paradigms: ReAct, for rigorously evaluating the model's core intrinsic abilities, and an IterResearch-based 'Heavy' mode, which uses a test-time scaling strategy to unlock the model's maximum performance ceiling.
