LocalAI

**LocalAI** is the free, Open Source OpenAI alternative. LocalAI act as a drop-in replacement REST API that’s compatible with OpenAI API specifications for local inferencing. It allows you to run LLMs, generate images, audio (and not only) locally or on-prem with consumer grade hardware, supporting multiple model families. Does not require GPU. ## 🔥🔥 Hot topics / Roadmap [Roadmap](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Aroadmap) - Parallel function calling: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1726 - Upload file API: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1703 - Tools API support: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1715 - LLaVa 1.6: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1714 - ROCm container images: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1595 - Intel GPU support (sycl): https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/issues/1653 - Deprecation of old backends: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/issues/1651 - Mamba support: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1589 - Start and share models with config file: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1522 - 🐸 Coqui: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1489 - Img2vid https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1442 Hot topics (looking for contributors): - Backends v2: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/issues/1126 - Improving UX v2: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/issues/1373 - Assistant API: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/issues/1273 If you want to help and contribute, issues up for grabs: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22up+for+grabs%22 ## 💻 [Getting started](https://localai.io/basics/getting_started/index.html) For a detailed step-by-step introduction, refer to the [Getting Started](https://localai.io/basics/getting_started/index.html) guide.
