Google Cloud launches OpenAI models in its model garden

Google Cloud is launching OpenAI models in its model garden, becoming the only hyperscale cloud provider offering access to Gemini, Claude, and GPT alongside more than 200 first-party, third-party, and open models.
Three specific OpenAI models are included: GPT-Astra for demanding work across coding and scientific research, GPT-6.1 Sol for near-Astra intelligence at lower cost, and GPT-6 Luna for fast, cost-efficient everyday work.
OpenAI models are transacted directly through Google Cloud Marketplace, allowing usage to appear on a single invoice, draw down existing cloud commitments, and count toward Flexible Savings Plans.
The rollout is currently in private preview for select enterprise customers, with APIs and local Codex CLI/Desktop workflow connections available starting today.

Enterprise Security and Governance

Customer prompts, context, and outputs remain within designated data perimeters and are never used to train foundation models, with Zero Data Retention options coming soon.
OpenAI models run on dedicated Google Cloud infrastructure with Confidential Compute coming soon, ensuring data transit remains strictly within Google Cloud's secure environment.
Every agent and model interaction operates under an authenticated identity, providing IT administrators with end-to-end visibility, VPC Service Controls protection, and unified audit logging.

GPT-Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol, and GPT-6 Luna are rolling out now in private preview to select enterprise customers.
Customers can build with these models through APIs and connect local Codex CLI and Desktop workflows to the Gemini platform for inference.
OpenAI models will soon be available in Google Cloud’s Gemini for business and Google Antigravity.
