Ollama

Run large language models locally with a single command

Ollama is a lightweight framework for running large language models locally on your own hardware. With 162K+ GitHub stars, it's become the go-to solution for developers who want to run LLMs like Llama, Mistral, Gemma, and DeepSeek without cloud dependencies. Download a model with one command, and start chatting instantly. No API keys, no usage limits, no data leaving your machine.

Why Ollama?

Cloud AI APIs are expensive, have usage limits, and require sending your data to third parties. Every API call costs money, and your conversations are stored on someone else's servers. For developers building AI applications, this creates privacy concerns, unpredictable costs, and vendor lock-in. You shouldn't need a credit card or internet connection to experiment with AI.

How It Works

Ollama makes running LLMs as simple as running any other local application. One command downloads and runs a model. Another command exposes a REST API for your applications. The same API works across Llama, Mistral, Gemma, and dozens of other models—switch models without changing code. Models run entirely on your hardware, so your data never leaves your machine.

What Is Ollama?

Ollama is an open-source tool for running large language models locally. It provides a simple CLI and REST API to download, run, and manage LLMs on macOS, Windows, Linux, and Docker. Deploy it on Dublyo to give your team a shared, private AI inference server.
