# Ollama Run ai models locally. > _Note: this project is a work in progress. The features below are still in development_ **Features** - Run models locally on macOS (Windows, Linux and other platforms coming soon) - Ollama uses the fastest loader available for your platform and model (e.g. llama.cpp, Core ML and other loaders coming soon) - Import models from local files - Find and download models on Hugging Face and other sources (coming soon) - Support for running and switching between multiple models at a time (coming soon) - Native desktop experience (coming soon) - Built-in memory (coming soon) ## Install ``` pip install ollama ``` ## Quickstart ``` % ollama run huggingface.co/TheBloke/orca_mini_3B-GGML Pulling huggingface.co/TheBloke/orca_mini_3B-GGML...
