Today, Contextual AI announces the Grounded Language Model (GLM), the most grounded language model in the world, available in both agents and as a separate /generate component API. 

The GLM is an LLM that is engineered specifically to prioritize faithfulness to the retrieved knowledge over parametric knowledge to reduce hallucinations in Retrieval-Augmented Generation. Uniquely, the model distinguishes between facts and commentary that it generates, and users can toggle an avoid_commentary flag to determine whether the model can include commentary in its response or not.

To get started for free with the /generate component API, create a Contextual AI account, visit the Getting Started tab, and either get an API key the /generate standalone API or use the /generate UI playground. We provide credits for the first 1M input and 1M output tokens, and you can buy additional credits as your needs grow. To request custom rate limits and pricing, please contact us here. If you have any feedback or need support, please email glm-feedback@contextual.ai.

The GLM is already the default model in new agents created with the Contextual AI platform. See blog post for more details.
