AIBaseten and Base Labs announce safety infrastructure for open models
Base Labs says it will publish methods for training and monitoring open models, while Baseten will integrate the work into its deployment infrastructure and offer it as a managed service.
TLDR
Base Labs announced the initiative with Baseten on September 16, 2026, naming Hugging Face and Goodfire as partners and inviting open-source contributions. Under the plan, Base Labs will publish training and monitoring methods, and Baseten will integrate that work into its deployment infrastructure while models are running and offer it as a managed service. Base Labs argues that openness provides more visibility into model behavior and more ways to turn safety research into transparent controls than closed-source models. Goodfire says open-source models are essential to a lot of safety research, including its own.
