Open WebUI
User-friendly ChatGPT-style interface for running local LLMs with Ollama.
About
Open WebUI is a powerful, extensible ChatGPT-like user interface designed specifically for running local Large Language Models through Ollama. It provides an intuitive chat experience with support for various LLM models, conversation history, prompt templates, code syntax highlighting, image generation integration, and more. Features include full-text search through conversations, admin panel for user management, RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) with document upload, web search integration, custom prompts, and a pipeline system for extending functionality. It's the most popular self-hosted AI chat interface.
