OpenInspect: Transparent Model Hub

Researchers and developers struggle to understand proprietary open‑weights models, hindering evaluation and safe deployment, while enterprises face GPU constraints for inference. OpenInspect solves this by providing a cloud platform that hosts model weights, offers diagnostics, usage analytics, and inference‑as‑a‑service, enabling transparent audits and on‑demand inference without local hardware.

Comment on: Our position on open-weights models

"open weight" models are not open source. They are still deeply proprietary. It is not possible to know what they do or what they are capable of without interrogating them since we have no access to their source materials.The only difference is the Chinese labs have allowed 3rd party inference providers run the proprietary models for them since they cannot do it themselves due to domestic GPU compute constraints.
