How to use Oumi: what you can do with it

What is Oumi? Oumi is an open-source platform for the whole foundation model lifecycle: data preparation, training, evaluation and deployment. It fine-tunes models from 10M to 400B+ parameters with SFT, LoRA, QLoRA, DPO and GRPO, trains agentic tool-using models, synthesizes data with LLM judges, evaluates on benchmarks, serves with vLLM or SGLang, and runs from laptops to AWS, Azure, GCP, Lambda and Slurm through one CLI and ready-made recipes.

How do I use it? Install with uv pip install oumi, or uv pip install 'oumi[gpu]' for GPU support; then Train with oumi train -c configs/recipes/smollm/sft/135m/quickstart_train.yaml; Evaluate with oumi evaluate -c configs/recipes/smollm/evaluation/135m/quickstart_eval.yaml. Full steps below.

3 use cases

Quick start with Oumi

  1. Check you have what it needs: Python with uv or pip, or Docker; A GPU for real training runs (install the gpu extra); Optional: cloud accounts for remote jobs with oumi launch.
  2. Open oumi-ai/oumi on GitHub and read the README and license.
  3. Install with uv pip install oumi, or uv pip install 'oumi[gpu]' for GPU support
  4. Train with oumi train -c configs/recipes/smollm/sft/135m/quickstart_train.yaml
  5. Evaluate with oumi evaluate -c configs/recipes/smollm/evaluation/135m/quickstart_eval.yaml
  6. Chat with it using oumi infer -c configs/recipes/smollm/inference/135m_infer.yaml --interactive

These steps come from our top use case, Train, evaluate and chat with a model from recipes, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
