Chat with AI models that run on your own computer, so documents and conversations never leave your machine.

Local models need a decent graphics card or a recent Mac to feel quick, and they're still weaker than the best paid models on hard tasks. Open WebUI uses a custom licence, so read it before building a product on it.
