About IBM Granite
IBM® Granite™ is a family of artificial intelligence (AI) models purpose-built for business, engineered from scratch to help ensure trust and scalability in AI-driven applications. Open source Granite models are available today.
We make AI as accessible as possible for as many developers as possible. That’s why we have open-sourced core Granite Code, Time Series, Language, and GeoSpatial models and made them available on Hugging Face under permissive Apache 2.0 license that enables broad, unencumbered commercial usage.
All Granite models are trained on carefully curated data, with industry-leading levels of transparency about the data that went into them. We have also open-sourced the tools we use to ensure the data is high quality and up to the standards that enterprise-grade applications demand.

GPT-6 Luna
GPT-6 Luna is OpenAI’s cost-efficient GPT-6 model designed for everyday professional work, coding, computer use, and agentic applications at scale. It brings many of the advances introduced with GPT-6 Astra to a faster and substantially lower-cost model while improving on GPT-5.6 Luna in capability and factual reliability. The model supports adjustable reasoning effort, allowing applications to spend more compute on harder tasks and less on simpler requests. GPT-6 Luna can handle software engineering, multi-step business workflows, computer interaction, and other tool-using tasks that benefit from low operating cost. Improved GPT-6 prompt caching helps long-running agents reuse more context, respond faster, and reduce the cost of repeated input. GPT-6 Luna is available in ChatGPT Work, Codex, the ChatGPT desktop app for Free and Go users, and the OpenAI API as gpt-6-luna.

Grok 4.6
Grok 4.6 is an xAI model designed for long-running agents, ambitious interactive projects, visual work, coding, research, and knowledge workflows. The model builds on Grok 4.5 with stronger support for multi-step tasks that require sustained reasoning across codebases, information analysis, application development, and work artifact creation. Grok 4.6 can help turn broad product ideas into working first versions by researching domains, structuring applications, implementing core interactions, and refining results through feedback. It is trained across agentic tasks such as knowledge work, general coding, kernel optimization, web development, computer-aided design, and other technical environments. The model is available in Cursor, Grok Build, the xAI API, and partners such as OpenRouter, Vercel, and Cloudflare. Built for developers, builders, and teams working on complex projects, Grok 4.6 helps accelerate coding, agentic workflows, visual applications, and technical execution.

GPT-6 Astra
GPT-6 Astra is OpenAI’s frontier AI model for computer use, software engineering, scientific research, cybersecurity, browsing, and complex professional work. It combines advanced reasoning with agentic capabilities that allow it to navigate software, use tools, conduct research, manipulate data, troubleshoot systems, and complete multistep workflows. Astra is also designed to produce polished documents, spreadsheets, presentations, websites, applications, and other business or technical artifacts while following existing templates and organizational standards. In Codex, the model introduces improved long-running context management that can preserve notes and retrieve information from earlier context windows during extended software engineering tasks. OpenAI positions Astra as its most aligned model to date, with improvements in respecting task boundaries, interpreting user intent, communicating limitations, and avoiding unauthorized actions.
