**LocalAI** is a drop-in replacement REST API that's compatible with OpenAI API specifications for local inferencing. It allows you to run LLMs (and not only) locally or on-prem with consumer grade hardware, supporting multiple model families that are compatible with the ggml format. Does not require GPU.

In a nutshell:
- Local, OpenAI drop-in alternative REST API. You own your data.
- NO GPU required. NO Internet access is required either
- Optional, GPU Acceleration is available in `llama.cpp`-compatible LLMs. See also the [build section](https://localai.io/basics/build/index.html).
- Supports multiple models
- 🏃 Once loaded the first time, it keep models loaded in memory for faster inference
- ⚡ Doesn't shell-out, but uses C++ bindings for a faster inference and better performance.
LocalAI was created by [Ettore Di Giacinto](https://github.com/mudler/) and is a community-driven project, focused on making the AI accessible to anyone. Any contribution, feedback and PR is welcome!
Note that this started just as a [fun weekend project](https://localai.io/#backstory) in order to try to create the necessary pieces for a full AI assistant like `ChatGPT`: the community is growing fast and we are working hard to make it better and more stable. If you want to help, please consider contributing (see below)!

## 💻 Usage
Check out the [Getting started](https://localai.io/basics/getting_started/index.html) section. Here below you will find generic, quick instructions to get ready and use LocalAI.
The easiest way to run LocalAI is by using `docker-compose` (to build locally, see [building LocalAI](https://localai.io/basics/build/index.html)):
```bash
git clone https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI
cd LocalAI
# (optional) Checkout a specific LocalAI tag
# git checkout -b build <TAG>
# copy your models to models/
cp your-model.bin models/
# (optional) Edit the .env file to set things like context size and threads
# vim .env
# start with docker-compose
docker-compose up -d --pull always
# or you can build the images with:
# docker-compose up -d --build
# Now API is accessible at localhost:8080
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/models
# {"object":"list","data":[{"id":"your-model.bin","object":"model"}]}
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
"model": "your-model.bin",
"prompt": "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away",
"temperature": 0.7
}'
```
### 💡 Example: Use GPT4ALL-J model
<details>
```bash
# Clone LocalAI
git clone https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI
cd LocalAI
# (optional) Checkout a specific LocalAI tag
# git checkout -b build <TAG>
# Download gpt4all-j to models/
wget https://gpt4all.io/models/ggml-gpt4all-j.bin -O models/ggml-gpt4all-j
# Use a template from the examples
cp -rf prompt-templates/ggml-gpt4all-j.tmpl models/
# (optional) Edit the .env file to set things like context size and threads
# vim .env
# start with docker-compose
docker-compose up -d --pull always
# or you can build the images with:
# docker-compose up -d --build
# Now API is accessible at localhost:8080
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/models
# {"object":"list","data":[{"id":"ggml-gpt4all-j","object":"model"}]}
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
"model": "ggml-gpt4all-j",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "How are you?"}],
"temperature": 0.9
}'
# {"model":"ggml-gpt4all-j","choices":[{"message":{"role":"assistant","content":"I'm doing well, thanks. How about you?"}}]}
```
