In the current function calling of Fireworks AI, I am using it as one part of my RAG system. If Fireworks AI could be enhanced not only with the function calling I currently use, but also by adding a variety of other connections, then I think it would lead to an even better situation.

The only challenge is that Fireworks AI is not a ready-made business application; you have to customize it to suit your organization's taste, and it lacks a user-friendly dashboard, making it very difficult to grasp.

When using the API, it does not return information about the charges for image generation, which would be useful for our solution.
