Introducing the Forge Reasoning API Beta and Nous Chat: An Evolution in LLM Inference
Date Published

Nous Research introduces two complementary projects: the Forge Reasoning API and Nous Chat. The Forge API offers inference-time reasoning techniques on top of the Hermes 70B model, including a Python code interpreter, Monte‑Carlo tree search, mixture‑of‑agents, and chain-of-code. Users can supply their own models and selectively enable reasoning layers to improve performance. Nous Chat provides a simple interface to interact with Hermes 70B, demonstrating the effectiveness of Hermes and inviting users to explore the API. Together, these tools showcase new research in reasoning and make advanced LLM capabilities accessible to developers and end‑users.
