Groq and HUMAIN Announce New OpenAI Models

In a significant development for artificial intelligence, Groq, a pioneer in rapid inference technology, together with HUMAIN, a leading AI service provider in Saudi Arabia, have launched two new open models of OpenAI: gpt-oss-120B and gpt-oss-20B. This announcement was made on August 6, 2025, focusing on providing developers access to advanced AI capabilities globally.

This launch is noteworthy as it introduces these models on the GroqCloud platform, allowing for real-time context and integrated server-side tools. Featuring a full context of 128K token lengths, these models enable real-time responses and support complex workflows, which can greatly enhance various applications and services.

Collaboration Enhances Local Support

Jonathan Ross, CEO of Groq, emphasized that their platform is built for fast and affordable deployment of such models, enabling developers from all over the world to leverage these powerful tools effectively. He stated, "OpenAI sets a new standard for high performance in open-source models."
He also noted that their partnership with HUMAIN strengthens local access and support in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, facilitating a more efficient development landscape for local developers.

HUMAIN’s CEO, Tareq Amin, echoed similar sentiments, emphasizing that Groq provides unprecedented inference speed, scalability, and cost-effectiveness crucial for introducing cutting-edge AI to the region. He pointed out that this collaboration aims to catalyze a wave of innovations in Saudi Arabia, allowing developers to build smarter and faster with the best open-source models.

Advanced Features and Pricing

The newly launched models are specifically designed to maximize performance. Groq’s platform offers extended context capabilities and built-in tools which include web search and code execution. These functions are instrumental in delivering relevant real-time information and are aimed at improving efficiency in complex workflows.

The cost-effectiveness of Groq’s setup was another crucial aspect of the launch. The gpt-oss-120B operates at a rate of over 500 transactions per second (t/s) while the gpt-oss-20B achieves more than 1,000 t/s, making them among the most efficient models available.

The pricing for these new models is set competitively at:

• - gpt-oss-120B: $0.15 per million input tokens and $0.75 per million output tokens.
• - gpt-oss-20B: $0.10 per million input tokens and $0.50 per million output tokens.

For a limited time, tool calls associated with these open models of OpenAI will not incur additional charges, which enhances their accessibility.

Global Reach and Performance

With data centers in North America, Europe, and the Middle East, Groq ensures reliable, high-performance AI inference irrespective of developers’ locations. This robust infrastructure through GroqCloud makes OpenAI’s models accessible worldwide with minimal latency.

As more than 1.9 million developers trust Groq’s platform, the launch of these open models marks a significant step forward in the global AI landscape. The company strives to redefine the price-performance ratio for AI inference, making it affordable and efficient.
