Simple, pluggable access to Wolfram technology
Give LLM systems agentic access to your Wolfram applications
Wolfram Agent One API
All-in-one LLM + CAG universal agent
The Agent One API gives access to a combined LLM + Wolfram CAG system serving as a Foundation Tool–enhanced, agentic drop-in replacement for traditional LLM APIs.
Wolfram CAG Component APIs
Direct, fine-grained access to Wolfram Foundation Tool technology
The CAG component APIs make possible the optimized, custom integration of Wolfram Foundation Tool technology into large-scale LLM-based systems.

Data for Wolfram Language pre-training and fine tuning
What Sets Wolfram Foundation Tool Technology Apart?
Like an infinite extension of the concept of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)—which only retrieves snippets from existing documents—CAG (computation-augmented generation) does open-ended, real-time computation with Wolfram Language and Wolfram|Alpha. The result: rich, reliable knowledge and computed answers across an immense range of domains, with trust and transparency in every step.
Accurate computed results, not hallucinations
With the Wolfram Foundation Tool, you're using the power of Wolfram symbolic computation to compute accurate results, free from LLM-related issues such as hallucinations.
Open-ended custom computation, not document retrieval
The Foundation Tool efficiently computes exactly what you need—whether or not it has ever been computed before—rather than trying to find a precomputed result in an existing document.
Curated Wolfram data, not web crawls
The Foundation Tool accesses the Wolfram Knowledgebase—authoritative data curated over the past two decades—not material scraped from websites.
Transparent tool input, not black-box code
Results are backed by highly readable Wolfram Language and Wolfram|Alpha input that can readily be validated by users.
Trusted Wolfram results, not AI slop
The Foundation Tool gives you access to the same Wolfram technology that's been trusted by the world's R&D leaders for more than three decades. Learn about what's new in the latest version

Wolfram Foundation Tool Q&A
Product Introduction
What makes this tool different from a standard LLM?
The Foundation Tool produces precise results using computed Wolfram Language evaluation and Wolfram|Alpha's carefully curated data. Each answer includes the exact Wolfram Language code that generated it along with a traceable sequence of computational steps. You can inspect, review and reuse the logic behind every result—something standard LLMs cannot provide.
Does the Foundation Tool require me to change how I work with LLMs?
No. It plugs into existing workflows through the Wolfram MCP, Agent One or the CAG component APIs. You can keep the same prompts and model setup while adding a layer of Wolfram-evaluated computation beneath them. The integration is additive—it brings the Wolfram technology stack to your current LLM without forcing you to rebuild anything.
What kinds of problems is the Foundation Tool best suited for?
The Foundation Tool excels at tasks that need precise computation, structured data or an audit trail. This includes anything from numerical analysis and scientific work to financial calculations, data exploration and agentic activity. If your workflow already incorporates Wolfram|Alpha results, Wolfram Language notebooks or computational data, the Foundation Tool brings those capabilities directly into your LLM environment.
Getting Started
How do I connect my application to the Wolfram Foundation Tool?
You can connect through the Wolfram MCP for a standards-based integration, Agent One for a single endpoint that returns both the LLM response and Foundation Tool results, or the CAG component APIs when you want direct control over each part of the computation.
Do I need Wolfram Language experience to use the Wolfram Foundation Tool?
No. The Foundation Tool writes and evaluates Wolfram Language code for each request. When you want to review or adjust the computation, the code is concise and readable, which makes inspection and modification straightforward.
Can the Foundation Tool work with my own data?
Yes. It can evaluate Wolfram Language code that references your internal data sources so your application can combine your information with Wolfram|Alpha's curated knowledge and return a unified result through the same interface.
Tech & Security
Where does the Foundation Tool's data come from?
It draws on Wolfram|Alpha's curated knowledgebase and the results produced through Wolfram Language evaluation. Wolfram|Alpha sources are built from decades of expert data collection and reviewed through Wolfram's internal curation pipeline. Computed results come from algorithms and models implemented in Wolfram Language, which return structured information designed for reliability, consistency and clear sourcing.

Is the Wolfram Foundation Tool cost efficient compared to relying on a more expensive model?
Yes, in many cases. It handles structured and numerical reasoning through Wolfram Language evaluation and Wolfram|Alpha's curated data, so you can rely on a lower-cost LLM tier for work that normally requires a more expensive model.
