LM Studio
LM Studio is a desktop runtime for downloading and running compatible models locally through a graphical interface. It can also expose a local OpenAI-compatible API. Local execution reduces external data transfer only when the selected model, extensions, updates, and integrations are also configured to remain local; verify the complete data path before using sensitive material.
