Today at Forge, Fireworks AI announced its Fireworks Frontier Ecosystem, with Glean as a launch partner. The ecosystem brings together partners helping organizations build, evaluate, train, and deploy specialized AI.
The partnership brings together Fireworks' model-serving infrastructure with Glean's enterprise context. Together, they give organizations more flexibility to use supported open models in their workflows, grounded in company knowledge.
Why open-model choice matters
Different teams and tasks have different requirements for speed, quality, capacity, and cost. Open models are becoming more competitive with frontier models, giving organizations more to choose from. Rather than relying on one model for every task, they can find what works for the job at hand — and revisit those choices as better models emerge.
But choosing a model is only part of the equation. Organizations also need a way to put those models to work with their own knowledge and existing controls.
How Fireworks and Glean work together
Glean is the context platform for enterprise AI, connecting company knowledge, people, decisions, and workflows across systems. Fireworks provides the infrastructure to serve and tune open models in production, with options for how workloads are deployed. In practice, Fireworks helps run the models, while Glean grounds the experiences they power in company knowledge and existing permissions.
With Glean Assistant, employees can use these models to answer questions and pull together information from connected company sources. Glean Agents can apply that context, along with configured instructions and tools, to complete multi-step tasks across apps. Both operate within one governed experience, giving administrators control over which models and capabilities are available.
Glean also brings together leading frontier and open-source models through its auto-routing feature, selecting the right model for each task. And no matter which model an organization chooses, its company knowledge stays independent of any single provider.
What this means for customers
For customers who choose to use Fireworks with Glean, that flexibility translates into a few practical benefits:
- Explore more model options. Use eligible open models in Glean Assistant and Agent workflows as new options emerge, without having to rebuild your broader AI experience
- Find the right model for each workload. Evaluate models against your requirements for quality, latency, capacity, and cost to determine which ones work best for different tasks.
- Keep work grounded in company context. Use open models with relevant company knowledge while maintaining existing source permissions.
- Manage model availability centrally. Administrators control which models and model categories are available to their organization, with the ability to limit access where appropriate.
Putting model choice to work
As open models continue to improve, organizations have an opportunity to be more deliberate about which models they use and where. The ability to evaluate new options against real business needs, without starting over each time, will only become more valuable.
For organizations exploring open models, the next step is to choose a specific workload and test an eligible model against real tasks and governance requirements. See what works for your business before scaling more broadly.
