**LocalAI** is a drop-in replacement REST API compatible with OpenAI for local inferencing. It allows to run models locally or on-prem with consumer grade hardware, supporting multiple models families. For a list of the supported model families, see [the model compatibility table below](https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI#model-compatibility-table).
**LocalAI** is a drop-in replacement REST API compatible with OpenAI API specifications for local inferencing. It allows to run models locally or on-prem with consumer grade hardware, supporting multiple models families compatible with the `ggml` format. For a list of the supported model families, see [the model compatibility table below](https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI#model-compatibility-table).
- OpenAI compatible API
- OpenAI drop-in REST API
- Supports multiple models
- Once loaded the first time, it keep models loaded in memory for faster inference
- Support for prompt templates
- Doesn't shell-out, but uses C bindings for a faster inference and better performance.

- 13-05-2023: __v1.11.0__ released! 🔥 Updated `llama.cpp` bindings: This update includes a breaking change in the model files ( https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/1405 ) - old models should still work with the `gpt4all-llama` backend.
- 12-05-2023: __v1.10.0__ released! 🔥🔥 Updated `gpt4all` bindings. Added support for GPTNeox (experimental), RedPajama (experimental), Starcoder (experimental), Replit (experimental), MosaicML MPT. Also now `embeddings` endpoint supports tokens arrays. See the [langchain-chroma](https://github.com/go-skynet/LocalAI/tree/master/examples/langchain-chroma) example! Note - this update does NOT include https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/1405 which makes models incompatible.
