Choose candidate models
Compare model cards, licenses, sizes, benchmarks, and community notes before downloading anything.
Run the first local model
Install Ollama, pull a small model, and test chat, summarization, and coding prompts locally.
Compare desktop model behavior
Use LM Studio to load models, inspect performance, and expose a local server for app experiments.
Create a team-facing interface
Connect Open WebUI to the local backend so non-technical users can chat with approved models.
Optimize low-level inference
Use llama.cpp when the team needs GGUF, quantization, CPU/GPU backend tuning, or embedded inference.
Expose OpenAI-compatible APIs
Use LocalAI when internal apps need OpenAI-style endpoints for private model serving.
