Understanding what "runtime" actually means. Not just model serving
A runtime is responsible for the hard stuff around execution. It's the infrastructure layer that takes your trained RL policy and makes it work reliably in production environments.
Load policy artifacts from various formats and run inference efficiently:
Maintain per-agent state across interactions:
Optionally run step loops server-side with consistent timing:
Capture what happened and reproduce it exactly:
Low overhead per step with production-grade optimizations:
Crashes or bad policies shouldn't take down the system:
Minimal but essential signals for production monitoring:
Stable API/SDK that robotics, simulators, and games can embed against:
Most RL deployment discussions focus solely on "serving a model," but that's only a small part of the picture. A production RL runtime needs to handle the complexity of stateful interactions, provide reproducibility guarantees, maintain performance under load, and integrate seamlessly with diverse systems.
Fournex provides all of these capabilities out of the box, letting you focus on training better policies instead of building infrastructure.
