gpt-oss-safeguard is a first open weight reasoning model specifically trained for safety classification tasks to help classify text content based on customizable policies. As a fine-tuned version of gpt-oss, gpt-oss-safeguard is designed to follow explicit written policies that you provide. This enables bring-your-own-policy Trust & Safety AI, where your own taxonomy, definitions, and thresholds guide classification decisions. Well crafted policies unlock gpt-oss-safeguard's reasoning capabilities, enabling it to handle nuanced content, explain borderline decisions, and adapt to contextual factors.

GPT OSS 20B
openai/gpt-oss-20bAn open-weight 21B parameter model released under the Apache 2.0 license. It uses a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with 3.6B active parameters per forward pass, optimized for lower-latency inference and deployability on consumer or single-GPU hardware. The model is trained in OpenAI's Harmony response format and supports reasoning level configuration, fine-tuning, and agentic capabilities including function calling, tool use, and structured outputs.
GPT OSS 120B
openai/gpt-oss-120bAn open-weight, 117B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language model designed for high-reasoning, agentic, and general-purpose production use cases. It activates 5.1B parameters per forward pass and is optimized to run on a single H100 GPU with native MXFP4 quantization. The model supports configurable reasoning depth, full chain-of-thought access, and native tool use, including function calling, browsing, and structured output generation.
