Ollama

The Ollama model provides access to open source models, both locally-hosted and via Ollama Cloud.

Local Usage: Run models on your own hardware using the Ollama client. Perfect for development, privacy-sensitive workloads, and when you want full control over your infrastructure.

Cloud Usage: Access cloud-hosted models via Ollama Cloud with an API key for scalable, production-ready deployments. No local setup required - simply set your OLLAMA_API_KEY and start using powerful models instantly.

Key Features

• Dual Deployment Options: Choose between local hosting for privacy and control, or cloud hosting for scalability
• Seamless Switching: Easy transition between local and cloud deployments with minimal code changes
• Auto-configuration: When using an API key, the host automatically defaults to Ollama Cloud
• Wide Model Support: Access to extensive library of open-source models including GPT-OSS, Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, and Phi models
