Weights and Biases

Weights & Biases is an AI developer platform for building AI agents, applications, and models with confidence. The platform combines model development, post-training, inference, and GenAI application evaluation so teams can manage experiments, traces, datasets, prompts, code, and model assets in one workflow.

Weights & Biases is designed for organizations that need reproducibility, observability, and collaboration across the AI lifecycle. Its portfolio centers on Weave for tracing, evaluation, and monitoring of LLM and agentic applications, and Models for training, fine-tuning, and model management, with deployment options spanning managed SaaS, dedicated cloud, and customer-managed environments.

Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations

Weights & Biases supports AI workflows across experimentation, fine-tuning, post-training, hosted inference, evaluation, monitoring, artifact management, reporting, and automation. Its platform is built to help teams move from exploratory work to governed, repeatable production processes without losing visibility into model behavior or development history.

Weights & Biases emphasizes interoperability with established ML and GenAI tooling. It integrates with widely used frameworks and libraries such as TensorFlow, Keras, PyTorch Lightning, XGBoost, Hugging Face, and Diffusers; connects with services such as Amazon SageMaker, Databricks, Azure OpenAI fine-tuning, and Vertex AI; and supports orchestration tools including Kubeflow Pipelines, Metaflow, Dagster, and Hydra. For LLM applications, it also supports tracing across major model providers and agent frameworks with minimal manual instrumentation.

Products and Services
