kvtc
github.comThe first open-source implementation of NVIDIA's KVTC algorithm, compressing LLM key-value caches 6 to 9x using PCA decorrelation, adaptive quantization and entropy coding, to fit longer context in the same GPU memory.
Breeze-TTS-2.cpp
github.comA C++ and GGUF reimplementation of the Breeze-TTS-2 bilingual English and Mandarin text-to-speech model, supporting voice design, cloning, direction, and experimental voice conversion with a Vulkan backend.
sam3.c
github.comA dependency-free C11 implementation of Meta's Segment Anything Model 3 for image and video segmentation, with a Metal GPU backend and a multithreaded CPU backend.
rx580-local-ai-guide
setup-ia-local-rx580-vulkan.web.appA technical guide documenting how to run local LLM and image-generation inference on an AMD RX 580 GPU through Vulkan, after AMD dropped ROCm support for that hardware generation.
Ollama Herd
ollamaherd.comA local AI load balancer that turns a set of Mac and other devices running Ollama into one cluster, auto-discovering nodes over mDNS and routing language-model, image, speech and embedding requests to the best-fit device.
NOTORCH
github.comA complete neural network framework written in pure C, with no Python or CUDA toolkit dependency, that both runs and trains models, including loading and running GGUF files directly.
LTX-LLM
github.comA benchmark suite for local large language models on x86 hardware, measuring time-to-first-token, throughput, total duration and memory use across llama.cpp, LM Studio and Ollama backends.
Godwit
rayl15.github.ioA Swift and Metal runtime that runs a 120-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts language model on a 16 GB Apple Silicon Mac by streaming only the experts a token actually needs from disk.
emilio
github.comA research inference engine that proves a full transformer forward pass can run through a single algebraic operation, exponentiation combined with a logarithm and subtraction, in place of ordinary multiplication.
@capacitor/local-llm
github.comAn experimental Capacitor plugin that runs large language models entirely on-device using Apple Intelligence on iOS and Gemini Nano on Android, for text and image generation with no network requests or API keys.
ziggy-llm
alex188dot.github.ioA GGUF language model inference engine written from scratch in Zig for Apple Silicon, with its own quantization kernels, Metal GPU shaders and parser rather than wrapping an existing runtime.
llama-vulkan-strix
github.comDocker Compose configurations for serving llama.cpp GGUF language models on AMD Strix Halo hardware, covering stock Vulkan and custom ROCm builds with measured prefill, decode and quality metrics.
A self-hosted inference stack for a cluster of NVIDIA DGX Spark machines that routes tasks across local and cloud models, then LoRA-trains the local models on its own routing history so the local share of work grows over time.
Hexllama
github.comA native desktop interface for discovering, downloading, configuring and serving local large language models through llama.cpp, without hand-editing command-line arguments.
DRIFT
taewoopark.comSplits one large language model across a Mac and a separate Windows or Linux PC over an encrypted, framework-neutral network protocol, producing output identical to running the whole model on one machine.
Cluaiz
cluaiz.comA Rust-based local AI runtime and orchestrator that synchronizes text, vision and tool execution in one memory space, with hybrid HTTP and native FFI access for building agentic workflows on edge hardware.
ChaosEngineAI
chaosengineai.comA desktop control plane for discovering, converting, running, chatting with and benchmarking open-weight language and image models entirely on your own machine.
Ling Cookbook
github.comA collection of deployment recipes and practical guides for running the Ling model family locally with SGLang, vLLM, llama.cpp, Ollama and MLX across consumer and workstation hardware.
TurboQuant Pro
github.comA compression library for embedding indexes and LLM KV caches that optimizes for the metric a downstream consumer actually uses, such as retrieval recall or generation quality, instead of reconstruction error alone.
VeloxQuant-MLX
veloxquant.devA library of 43 KV-cache compression methods for MLX models on Apple Silicon, letting a locally run model use up to 16 times less cache memory with a three-line API change.
Multi-TurboQuant
github.comA unified KV-cache compression toolkit for LLM inference offering twelve Python-native compression methods behind one API, with guarded add-on composition, multi-GPU deployment planning and launch-command generation for llama.cpp and vLLM.
local-llm-bench
github.comA scenario-based benchmark for local LLM inference on Apple Silicon that measures effective end-to-end throughput, including the prefill phase, across real workloads such as agent conversations and document classification.
LlamaNet
llamanet.appA free, open-source local LLM server that turns an idle Mac or GPU into a public, OpenAI-compatible inference node reachable over HTTPS, sharing spare compute with friends, apps or AI agents.
LatentGate
github.comA VL-JEPA-inspired pipeline that compresses images, text, conversations and RAG documents locally through Ollama before sending only the compact result to a cloud LLM API, cutting token costs by around 80 percent.
