Meta is excited to announce a deeper collaboration between the AI Alliance and Meta’s Llama Stack, marking a significant milestone in advancing open-source AI development. We invite ISVs and businesses of all sizes to explore partnership opportunities with the AI Alliance, Meta, and Llama Stack. Please fill out this form to be considered for partnership opportunities.

This presentation outlines a solution for easily building and deploying applications with Llama models, addressing challenges faced by both developers and API/service providers. The goal is to simplify tasks like inference, fine-tuning, and evaluation, and to provide production-ready agentic workflows. Llama Stack uses APIs and a plugin architecture to offer a standardized interface and toolchain components, enabling flexible deployments across various environments including on-premise, cloud, and on-device.
