The Foundation Models framework is the best way to use any large language model in your app. Whether you’re generating a quick summary or creating dynamic agents, the framework has what you need.
The Foundation Models framework is a native Swift API for integrating any large language model into your app — including direct access to the Apple Foundation Models on-device and in Private Cloud Compute. Powerful capabilities like guided generation, tool calling, image understanding, and Dynamic Profiles are built in, so you have what you need to build unique experiences.
Multimodal prompts let you pass images alongside text so your app can reason about visual content. This opens up new categories of experiences you can build with image understanding — it's as simple as attaching an image to your prompt. The Vision framework is also integrated directly, giving your model purpose-built tools like OCR for precise text extraction and barcode readers for quick code scanning — all on-device.
