General web-based agents are increasingly essential for interacting with complex web environments, yet their performance in real-world web applications remains poor, yielding extremely low accuracy even with state-of-the-art frontier models. We observe that these agents can be decomposed into two primary components: Planning and Grounding. Yet, most existing research treats these agents as black boxes, focusing on end-to-end evaluations which hinder meaningful improvements. We sharpen the distinction between the planning and grounding components and conduct a novel analysis by refining experiments on the Mind2Web dataset. Our work proposes a new benchmark for each of the components separately, identifying the bottlenecks and pain points that limit agent performance. Contrary to prevalent assumptions, our findings suggest that grounding is not a significant bottleneck and can be effectively addressed with current techniques. Instead, the primary challenge lies in the planning component, which is the main source of performance degradation. Through this analysis, we offer new insights and demonstrate practical suggestions for improving the capabilities of web agents, paving the way for more reliable agents. |
