  • Launch of Tinker, a flexible API for fine-tuning language models.
  • Enables researchers to experiment with models by controlling algorithms and data.
  • Supports fine-tuning of various open-weight models, including large ones like Qwen-235B-A22B.
  • Managed service handling scheduling, resource allocation, and failure recovery.
  • Uses LoRA for cost-efficient shared compute between training runs.
  • Provides low-level API primitives and an open-source Tinker Cookbook for post-training methods.
  • Already used by groups at Princeton, Stanford, Berkeley, and Redwood Research.
  • Currently in private beta for researchers and developers.
  • Free to start with usage-based pricing coming soon.
