Products & Services
Frontier-class, high-capability multimodal language model for enterprise generative-AI applications.
Fast, efficient 21B multimodal and multilingual model for high-quality, lower-latency workloads; later iterations include Flash 3 and Flash 3.1.
Compact/open-weight vision-language model for on-device, local and edge use; the current Edge 2603 is a 7B model accepting image/video and text and producing text.
Video/image intelligence platform with Watch, Search and Chat modules for visual indexing, semantic search, video Q&A, highlight and clip generation, and real-time incident monitoring.
Market Position
Reka positions itself as a full-stack multimodal AI company spanning foundation-model research, efficient inference infrastructure and applications. Its differentiation is native multimodality, model distillation/quantization for lower-cost real-time or edge deployment, privacy-preserving private deployment, and products such as Vision and Research; competitors include OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Cohere, Writer, Contextual AI, LlamaIndex and other multimodal/enterprise-model providers.

Founding Story
The founders came from DeepMind, Google Brain, Baidu and Meta and believed that general-purpose large language models were impractical for every enterprise use case. They started Reka to build efficient, customizable multimodal and multilingual models that could run within customers’ deployment constraints, including on private infrastructure.
Business Model
Revenue Model
Enterprise contracts for customized models, fine-tuning, on-premise/private-cloud deployments and dedicated compute; usage-based serverless API inference billed per token; paid research API queries; and developer subscriptions through Reka Pass.
Pricing Tiers
Pay per token through the OpenAI-compatible Gateway; batch requests are 50% of listed rates for supported models.
Pricing stated in the July 10, 2025 launch announcement; enterprise customization and deployment are available.
Provides $30 of monthly inference credits, supports selected models and can be canceled any time.
