LM Studio makes it really easy to deploy LLMs locally and makes it brilliantly simple to harvest the power of Apple Silicone chips with their built in Neural Cores and benefit from Unified memory which allows you to dedicate previously unimaginable amount of VRAM for the purposes of running LLMs. You can finally have a really powerful AI running on your laptop that helps you to use leverage to achieve more when dealing with sensitive information on your device.

What's great

It’s one of the most convenient and lightweight tools for working with LLMs locally. The interface is clean and thoughtfully designed. New models are added almost immediately after release. It can run in server mode with remote access, and it automatically selects the largest model variant that fully fits into available memory. It runs stably and natively on macOS and is well suited for use as a remote server on a MacStudio. An excellent choice for everyday users who want to run models locally.

Absolutely beautiful User Interface. It's super easy to setup and start using. I've used ollama, but since the UI is a separate project, it's a bit difficult to setup. LM Studio also have very good collection of models available compared to Ollama. My favourite thing about LMS is it shows the model size upfront and I don't have to dig through to find it. CUDA runtime is also a great plus.

used LM Studio to build ModelHub

LM Studio gave us a smooth, desktop-native way to discover and run local LLMs, with great UI and flexibility, so it became our go-to over the other options.
