Gorilla is a UC Berkeley research project for training and evaluating LLMs to make function/tool calls, including the OpenFunctions fine-tuned models and the Berkeley Function Calling Leaderboard (BFCL) benchmark. It also includes related work like RAFT for retriever-aware fine-tuning for domain-specific RAG.
Use cases
- evaluate how well LLMs call functions and tools
- fine-tune a model to generate API calls from natural language
- benchmark function-calling models on multi-turn agentic tasks
- compare LLMs on the Berkeley Function Calling Leaderboard
- improve RAG performance with retriever-aware fine-tuning
- train a model to select between multiple APIs
When to choose
- you need to benchmark or compare function-calling capabilities of LLMs
- you want to fine-tune an open model for reliable tool/API use
- you are building agentic systems that depend on accurate tool calls
- you need a research-grade evaluation dataset for function calling
When to avoid
- you just need a production LLM API client without evaluation or training
- you want a turnkey agent framework rather than research tooling
- your use case has nothing to do with LLM tool use or RAG
