Ollama
A platform to run, manage, and serve open-source large language models (LLMs) locally or on your own infrastructure.
What is Ollama?
Ollama is a platform for running and managing open-source large language models (LLMs) locally. It provides a command-line interface, a REST API, and SDKs to easily download, execute, and serve models like Gemma, Qwen, and DeepSeek on your own hardware. It solves the problem of complex local LLM setup by offering a streamlined, unified tool for developers and researchers.
Developers, researchers, and hobbyists who want to experiment with or build applications using open-source LLMs without depending on external API services. It's ideal for those needing privacy, cost control, or offline capabilities.
Developers choose Ollama for its simplicity, extensive model support, and strong ecosystem. It removes the friction of manually configuring different model frameworks, provides a consistent interface for all models, and enables easy integration into existing applications via its API and SDKs.
