About cortex

Cortex Cortex is an open-source AI backend control plane: model routing, agent tools, OpenAI-compatible APIs, and private workspaces behind one programmable runtime. It is built for teams that want the modern AI stack without welding their product to one provider SDK, one brittle prompt chain, or one proprietary agent loop. What You Get One API for many providers. Route OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Gemini, Claude on Vertex, Grok, Replicate-hosted media models, Ollama, local models, and custom provider plugins through GraphQL, REST, OpenAI-compatible chat/completions/responses, and Anthropic-style messages APIs. Routing that can adapt. Use model groups, redirects, per-request model overrides, endpoint health, duplicate-request hedging, and background latency sampling so "the default model" can be a strategy instead of a hardcoded string. An agent harness you can own. combines entity configuration, tools, MCP discovery, client-side tools, request-scoped tools, streaming progress,
