What it decides

Returns: A score for every label you pass.
Checks: Zero-shot classification
Languages: English
Precision: 66 / 100 · Smaller GLiClass for CPU use.
Clarity: Probability or score (15 of 15 clarity points)
How it runs: Labels spans or picks labels · reads the input once and writes nothing, so it answers in milliseconds.

Which apps can open a model depends on the files published for it: GGUF for llama.cpp-based apps, MLX for Apple’s engine, the original weights for vLLM and SGLang. Compare every app.

Memory and speed

Each precision on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090, for one decision on a 256-token input. The best hardware table below covers other GPUs and Macs.
