Reflection AI, originally created as a coding agent platform, now positions itself as an open-source alternative to leading AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic, and as a Western counterpart to Chinese AI companies like DeepSeek. It is building a large-scale LLM and reinforcement learning platform capable of training massive mixed-expert (MoE) models - the technology that has enabled DeepSeek to significantly reduce training and inference costs. Reflection AI will publish model weights -the fundamental parameters that determine an AI system's performance, for public use, while the datasets and all training processes will remain proprietary. The company aims to generate revenue from large enterprises building products based on Reflection AI models, and from governments developing "sovereign AI systems".
