Ollama Desktop App

Ollama's new official desktop app for macOS and Windows makes it easy to run open-source models locally. Chat with LLMs, use multimodal models with images, or reason about files, all from a simple, private interface.

The Ollama Desktop App offers a user-friendly way to interact with local AI models on macOS and Windows. It simplifies running open-source models, enabling seamless chats with LLMs, processing text or PDFs via drag-and-drop, and analyzing code files. The app also supports multimodal capabilities, allowing users to send images to compatible models like Google DeepMind’s Gemma 3.

With adjustable context length for handling large documents, Ollama prioritizes privacy and ease of use. While the desktop app caters to a broader audience, CLI versions remain available for advanced users. Ideal for documentation, research, or casual AI interactions, Ollama blends simplicity with powerful local AI functionality.
