Ollama

Ollama is a ai tools tool for working with AI. In its own words: Ollama is the easiest way to automate your work using open models, while keeping your data safe.

What the free plan gives you

Free and open source local model runner.

Because Ollama is open source, the ceiling is your own infrastructure rather than a billing page. Self-hosting costs nothing but your time, and a hosted plan is there if you would rather not run it.

When you would pay

You may never need to. The free tier is not a funnel step here, so the sensible move is to use it until something it genuinely cannot do forces the question.

We list Ollama because the free plan was checked against its own pricing page, not because a vendor asked. If it has changed, tell us and we will re-check it.
