About LM Studio
LM Studio is the leading desktop application for running open-source Large Language Models completely offline on macOS, Windows, and Linux. It allows developers to browse GGUF models from Hugging Face, run quantized inference with hardware acceleration (Apple Silicon, NVIDIA CUDA, AMD ROCm), and expose a local OpenAI-compatible HTTP REST server endpoint (`http://localhost:1234/v1`).
With zero setup friction and full privacy control, LM Studio is an essential tool for AI developers.
- User-friendly desktop UI with one-click GGUF model download
- Built-in local OpenAI-compatible server endpoint
- Full offline privacy with GPU hardware acceleration
- Performance depends on local system RAM and GPU VRAM capacity
- Commercial usage requires LM Studio business license
