list_tasks· The tasks Local AI Picks lists open-weight models for (text LLM, coding, speech to text, text to speech, image, video, music, translation, OCR), with the number of current models and the page for each.find_models· Current open-weight models for one task, latest version of each family, in the same order as the site. Give memory_gb (and device) to keep only models whose smallest listed weight option fits; memory is estimated only for text LLMs and takeget_model· One model: parameters, license, context length, every listed weight option with file size and memory need, third-party scores with their source and date, whether this site tested it, and links.compare_models· The same facts as get_model for 2 to 4 models side by side.
What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
Is this your server? Monitoring Pro: a check every 30 minutes and an email within the hour when it stops answering. Launch offer: $39.99 once, for life.
