The official Python SDK for the Fireworks AI API is available on GitHub and PyPI.

Fireworks vs. OpenAI SDK#

Fireworks is OpenAI-compatible, so you can use the OpenAI SDK with Fireworks. The Fireworks SDK offers additional benefits:

• Better concurrency defaults — Optimized connection pooling for high-throughput workloads
• Fireworks-exclusive features — Access parameters and response fields not available in the OpenAI API
• Platform automation — Manage datasets, evals, fine-tuning, and deployments programmatically

Installation#

Requires Python 3.9+ and an API key. See Getting your API key for instructions.

The SDK is currently in alpha. Use the --pre flag when installing to get the latest version.

pip install --pre fireworks-ai

poetry add --pre fireworks-ai

uv add --pre fireworks-ai
