Computer-Using Agent (CUA)
No estimate
No hardware requirements for this model
The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.
On record
Full specification
Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

What the numbers mean
Background
Computer-Using Agent (CUA) was published by OpenAI, in the country recorded as United States of America, during January 2025. The publishing organisation is categorised as industry.
It works in the domain of Vision, Language, Multimodal, and is recorded as performing the task of instruction interpretation, System control.
Its weights were never published, so it can only be reached through its provider. No graphics card changes that.
How it was trained
It is tracked in the underlying dataset for one reason in particular: sOTA improvement.
Answers
Computer-Using Agent (CUA) — common questions
Computer-Using Agent (CUA)— is it open source?
No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
Computer-Using Agent (CUA)— how many parameters does it have?
No parameter count has been published for it, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.
Computer-Using Agent (CUA)— who created it?
It was published by OpenAI, based in United States of America, an organisation categorised as industry.
Computer-Using Agent (CUA)— when was it released?
It was published in January 2025.
Computer-Using Agent (CUA)— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Vision, Language, Multimodal, and is recorded as handling the task of instruction interpretation, System control. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.
Computer-Using Agent (CUA)— what GPU do I need to run it?
None. This is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
