With open models, we can build safety tooling directly into the inference layer. Our CEO and co-founder @tuhinone sat down with @kr00ney at @cnbc to discuss Project Beacon, and our work with @GoodfireAI to make safety the default for open intelligence.

Today we’re announcing the Baseten Environment Network, a group of the best RL environment companies that will help our customers build custom environments for post-training. The Network extends our applied research capacity, helping more customers build environments around their own tasks, data, and feedback. Partners work directly with customers to create the environments, while we continue to handle model training and production deployment. Learn more: baseten.co/blog/introducing-…

Today we’re releasing two decision models, elephant-1 (9B) and mammoth-1 (27B), trained by the @baselabs team, available for free for one week on our Model APIs. mammoth-1 is #1 on the Jev Decision Index and elephant-1 is tied for #1 on the Artificial Analysis Decision Index. It’s a new model, but more importantly, this is an open-source model you can access, deploy, and post-train on Baseten (or wherever you do your best work). The free week ends 10/27/26 at 11:59 PM PT. Try it and let us know what you think. Try mammoth-1 here: baseten.co/library/mammoth-1… Try elephant-1 here: baseten.co/library/elephant-…

Open models can come from anywhere. Securing them shouldn’t depend on where you get them. Today we're launching Project Beacon to make safety a default for open intelligence. We're partnering with @GoodfireAI to bring inference and in-line monitoring together for the first time, so safety signals are caught proactively.

Progress that moves the frontier is almost never made alone. We’re thrilled to announce All-Gather, our first-ever research conference that will bring together the brightest minds in research, founders, and engineers to join us for a day of debate and exchange. Come hear Noam Brown, Sarah Guo, Horace He, Bryan Catanzaro, Jerry Tworek, Sabri Eyuboglu, Tuhin Srivastava, and many more debate pre-training, post-training, infrastructure, model performance, and emerging fields. Join us on November 18th in San Francisco. Research has been part of our DNA from our early days of optimizing open-source models through our recent launch of Base Labs. We’ve grown with the open ecosystem, and we’re excited to keep building alongside it. Space is limited, but we’d love you to join us. Apply here: baseten.co/all-gather/

The first video-to-video model to pass the Turing test, trained on Baseten. Congrats to the @tavus team on the launch of Griffin!
