Groq and HUMAIN Collaborate to Launch OpenAI Models for Developers Worldwide

Groq and HUMAIN Launch OpenAI's New Open Models

On August 5, 2025, Groq, a leader in AI inference, teamed up with HUMAIN, a prominent AI services provider in Saudi Arabia, to unveil OpenAI's latest open models on GroqCloud, marking a significant step forward in the accessibility of advanced AI technology. This launch makes two powerful models, gpt-oss-120B and gpt-oss-20B, available for immediate use, equipped with impressive features including a full 128K context length, real-time responses, and integrated server-side tools that enhance the overall experience for developers.

Both companies have a shared history of supporting OpenAI’s endeavors, with Groq having played a pivotal role in deploying various open-source projects, including Whisper. Jonathan Ross, CEO of Groq, emphasized the transformative nature of this collaborative launch, stating, "OpenAI is setting a new high-performance standard in open-source models. Groq was built to run models like this, fast and affordably, so developers everywhere can use them from day zero. Working with HUMAIN strengthens local access and support in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, empowering developers in the region to build smarter and faster."

In addition to these advanced models, Groq's technology is designed to provide enhanced features, enabling developers to execute code and perform web searches in real-time. These tools enhance the capability of the gpt-oss models, which are designed to support a wide array of applications while maintaining a low cost. The pricing structure includes $0.15 per million input tokens and $0.75 per million output tokens for the larger model, while the smaller model is priced at $0.10 and $0.50, respectively. Notably, there is no charge for tool calls used with these models for a limited period.

The collaboration between Groq and HUMAIN represents an important development for the AI landscape, particularly within the Kingdom. Tareq Amin, CEO at HUMAIN, stated, "Groq delivers the unmatched inference speed, scalability, and cost-efficiency we need to bring cutting-edge AI to the Kingdom. Together, we are enabling a new wave of Saudi innovation—powered by the best open-source models and the infrastructure to scale them globally."

The global data center footprint of Groq, which spans North America, Europe, and the Middle East, guarantees that developers can rely on high-performance AI inference with minimal latency, further elevating the accessibility of OpenAI’s models on a global stage.

Groq’s mission revolves around redefining price-performance dynamics in AI inference. Their custom LPU (Logic Processing Unit) and cloud platform are engineered to deliver powerful models swiftly while keeping costs low. With over 1.9 million developers trusting Groq, the company is firmly positioned as an essential player in the AI industry.
