Forge · Inference

Memory-efficient inference, built on MLX.

Forge is Foundation's upcoming inference engine, built on Apple's MLX framework. Its goal is to make model execution more memory-efficient and simplify the path from a prepared model to evaluation and export.

What you get

MLX foundation

Built around MLX, Apple's machine-learning framework for Apple silicon. Forge is being developed with that ecosystem as its execution foundation.

Memory efficiency

Forge's central goal is to reduce the memory overhead of inference, helping make model execution more practical on compatible local hardware.

Part of the model workflow

Inference is one stage in a broader workflow that includes model preparation, training, benchmark evaluation, and export.

How it works

  1. 01

    Prepare the model

    Bring the model into the workflow and get it ready for execution.

  2. 02

    Run inference

    Use the MLX-based engine to execute the model with memory efficiency as a primary design goal.

  3. 03

    Evaluate the result

    Run benchmark evaluations and prepare the model for export.

More useful work from the memory you have.
