What's My AIRuntime choice pages for people who know the app they want to use before they pick a model.
Runtimes

runtimes

Best local models for the runtime you actually want to use.

Runtime choice changes what “best model” means. Some people care about the fastest clean first run, some want a GUI, and some care most about low-level control.

OllamaPeople who want the fastest first success with a tracked local model tag.
LM StudioPeople who want a desktop app, a model catalog, and a lower-friction testing loop.
llama.cppPeople who want the most control over quantization, serving shape, and local inference knobs.

Runtime landing pages

Each page ranks starter models for the runtime, calls out the tradeoff you are making, and links back to the deeper model-fit pages when you need exact hardware guidance.
