You can use Ollama to run, customize, and build applications with open large language models on your local computer or across cloud servers. It lets you download and run popular models like DeepSeek, Gemma, and Mistral on macOS, Windows, or Linux with minimal setup. You can integrate local inference into your coding workflows, manage prompts privately without external data logging, run multiple models concurrently, and use pay-as-you-go cloud credits whenever your team needs access to heavier hardware or shared administrative controls.
