**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).
