Cornell's AI Platform is a secure, private "sandbox" for accessing and experimenting with AI tools that comprises two complementary modules: AI Gateway and AI Agent Studio.

AI Gateway allows you to access frontier models such as Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, and experiment with other models like Mistral, AWS Nova and Grok, all in a secure Cornell environment. It also enables you to power tools like Claude Code and OpenWebUI, and to seamlessly integrate AI into your custom scripts.

AI Agent Studio allows teams to build, manage, and govern AI agents and workflows that run on schedules or respond to specific triggers, while providing observability and auditing tools.

The AI Platform is currently in a pilot phase, and we are actively seeking collaborators to help shape the future of AI at Cornell.
