A design that runs AI on your own device first.
Local-first AI is like making toast in your kitchen. You do not call a bakery for one slice.
It keeps small AI jobs on your phone or laptop for privacy and offline use. Big jobs can still use the cloud.
Local-LLM
Local-first AI often uses a Local-LLM to run on the device.
Edge AI
Edge AI keeps the AI close to the user and the data.
Data-privacy
Local-first AI sends less data away, so privacy risk is lower.
In-browser AI
In-browser AI is one way to run local-first AI on a device.
