Tier list

Local AI model tier list

Every model we track, ranked by quality alone. Tiers don’t depend on your hardware: they tell you how capable a model is. To see which ones your machine can run, use the Model Finder.

Step 1

Quality tiers are curated from published benchmarks and model reviews, then scaled by quantization for each result on the Model Finder, so a tier here is the model’s ceiling at full precision.

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
