About Gorilla
Gorilla is a Python framework for training and evaluating large language models on function calling tasks. It provides datasets, training pipelines, and benchmarks to improve LLM accuracy when selecting and invoking external tools and APIs.
Best for
Developers building agent systems who need LLMs to reliably invoke specific functions and APIs
Use cases
- Training models to correctly call APIs and functions from natural language
- Benchmarking LLM tool-use performance across different model sizes
- Building reliable agent systems that need accurate function selection
Notes
12,878 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-04-13. Licensed Apache-2.0.
Pros
- Focused dataset and evaluation methodology specifically for function calling
- Open source with active community support (12k+ stars)
- Enables fine-tuning of models for tool use rather than relying on base model capabilities
Cons
- Requires Python expertise and familiarity with LLM training workflows
- Limited to function calling tasks, not general-purpose LLM training
- Community-maintained project without commercial support guarantees
