How the free AI model recommendation works
The wizard matches your intended workflow with the memory available on your computer. Coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex may use cloud models, while a private local setup needs a model small enough to fit in RAM. The result gives you a short list of relevant models and a setup path rather than claiming that one model is best for every task.
Choose the job first
Select coding, editor assistance, or local AI based on the work you actually want to complete. This prevents a popular but unsuitable model from becoming the default recommendation.
Match your hardware
RAM is a practical first filter for local models. Leave enough memory for your operating system and other apps, and begin with a smaller quantized model when performance is uncertain.
Verify before committing
Open the recommended model page, check its provider and license, then follow the linked guide. Test a small task before downloading a larger model or connecting the setup to a real project.
Local model or free cloud API?
Choose a local model when privacy and offline access are important and your hardware can run it. Choose a free AI API when you need a faster start, a larger model, or access from a low-power computer. Free tiers can have rate limits, so keep keys private and build a clear fallback for public applications.
