What is and isn’t public

An evidence-based summary of what this catalog has documented. It is not a verdict on the organization as a whole.

Fireworks serves open models from other developers through commercial hosted APIs. Its Ember-1 announcement describes a hosted research preview and does not describe a public weights release.47

    NVIDIA and inaugural partners launch the Open Secure AI Alliance for open AI security tools

    NVIDIA announced the Open Secure AI Alliance on July 27, 2026, describing it as an effort to develop and share open technologies, techniques and tools to safeguard software and AI agents. The inaugural partners NVIDIA lists include Cisco, Dell Technologies, HPE, Intel, Anyscale, Crusoe, Fireworks AI and the Linux Foundation, and NVIDIA says the alliance builds on the Linux Foundation's Akrites initiative and OpenSSF community work. NVIDIA says it is contributing open models, model weights, data and agent harness research, and that its open-source NVIDIA Labs Object-Oriented Agent (NOOA) research framework is available on GitHub. NVIDIA also names HPE's contributions to the SPIFFE/SPIRE identity framework among the alliance's work.
