Which one, for what
LBS-27B D
Best for Agents with about 96 GB of GPU memory that need to find click targets on dense professional screenshots, or read fine detail in large images, and can run a small crop loop and wait for independent results.
Ahead on
- Agent interface, 70 against 60
- Documentation and upkeep, 43 against 31
Watch for
No independent benchmark result yet; ScreenSpot-Pro, OS-World-G, PerceptionBench and HR-Bench numbers are inclusionAI's own runs
Best for An agent on a laptop or small edge device that needs a local model to read images, documents and video in about 2 GB
Ahead on
- Reach, 95 against 55
- Risk, 55 against 50
Watch for
No safety evaluation, agent-use guidance or security contact

Verdicts
LBS-27B
A 27B Qwen3.8 fine-tune for GUI grounding that zooms into screenshots over a few turns before naming a point, and inclusionAI says it also helps with fine detail in large images. It needs about 96 GB at BF16 and a client that runs its crop actions. Every result so far is inclusionAI's own, with no safety results or injection guidance.
Qwen3-VL-2B-Instruct
The smallest Qwen3-VL cousin, for reading screenshots, documents, charts and video on a laptop or edge box, running in about 2 GB from Alibaba's Q4_K_M GGUF in every major runtime under plain Apache 2.0. Qwen hasn't answered repository questions or published safety work, so keep a human or a check in the loop before it drives a GUI.
Before you call either
LBS-27B
- Serve with
vllm serve inclusionAI/LBS-27B --tensor-parallel-size 4 --max-model-len 65536, which is what the card's wrapper script runs; keep the context at 32,768 or more for multi-turn images - Build the system prompt with
build_system_promptfrom the LBS branch'szoomin_grounding_protocol.py, send the screenshot afterimage_path: <name>, and don't passtools; the model answers in plain text - Parse
<action>crop_image(image_path=..., x1=..., y1=..., x2=..., y2=...)</action>, cut the crop yourself and return it with its mapping to the original image; allow at most two crops per turn and three per episode - Read the final answer as
[x.xx,y.yy]on a 0 to 1000 scale of the original image, and use your own executor to click - Pass
reasoning_effortasxhigh,mediumorlowonly, since the template raises an error forhigh, and don't count onthinking_budget, which the template ignores - Don't turn on MTP speculative decoding; the MTP weights aren't in the repository though config.json names one MTP layer
Qwen3-VL-2B-Instruct
- Start it with
llama-server -hf Qwen/Qwen3-VL-2B-Instruct-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja -c 32768, orollama run qwen3-vl:2b-instruct - In Ollama the plain
qwen3-vl:2btag is the Thinking edition, so name2b-instruct - With the GGUF, load the mmproj vision file too, or images won't be read
- Parse tool calls as JSON inside
<tool_call>tags, or use SGLang's--tool-call-parser qwen - Use the card's sampling,
temperature=0.7, top_p=0.8, top_k=20, presence_penalty=1.5for vision andtemperature=1.0, top_p=1.0, top_k=40, presence_penalty=2.0for text - Validate JSON output yourself, since structured output isn't documented
- vLLM needs 0.11.0 or later and Transformers 4.57.0 or later
