Abstract
In this paper, we introduce , the first benchmark framework for evaluating LLM agent with multimodal capabilities in the e-commerce customer support domain. ECom-Bench features dynamic user simulation based on persona information collected from real e-commerce customer interactions and a realistic task dataset derived from authentic e-commerce dialogues. These tasks, covering a wide range of business scenarios, are designed to reflect real-world complexities, making highly challenging. For instance, even advanced models like GPT-4o achieve only a 10–20% pass3 metric in our benchmark, highlighting the substantial difficulties posed by complex e-commerce scenarios. The code and data have been made publicly available at https://github.com/XiaoduoAILab/ECom-Bench to facilitate further research and development in this domain.
