Legendary effort of @probicheaux 🏅 and models team made it! Shortly after release, we have a support for new Ultralytics model - YOLO26. If you are interested - [learn more about the model](https://blog.roboflow.com/yolo26), or you can cut the line and jump straight into testing the model on [Robolfow Platform](https://app.roboflow.com).
### 🔎 How to use the new model?
* Train the model on your data using [Robolfow Platform](https://app.roboflow.com).
* Use it in Workflows or directly in `inference`
As easy as that 😀
```python
# install inference - uv pip install inference or uv pip install inference-gpu
import cv2
import supervision as sv
from inference import get_model
model = get_model("<id-of-your-yolo26-model>", api_key="<your_api_key>")
image = cv2.imread("<your-image-path>")
predictions = sv.Detections.from_inference(model.infer(image)[0])
annotator = sv.BoxAnnotator()
annotated_image = annotator.annotate(image.copy(), predictions)
```

Workflows ecosystem is constantly growing 🤯 Thanks to @yeldarby contributions, we are now able to expose new VLMs in Workflows - plus, for both Gemini and Claude models family, Roboflow now provides managed API keys - so Roboflow account alone is enough - no manual setup of your API keys.
