Ollamaclient
Ollama Client is a Chrome extension that lets you chat with local large language models directly in your browser — no API keys, no data leaving your machine.
Why Ollama Client?
Section titled “Why Ollama Client?”Running LLMs locally has become increasingly practical thanks to projects like Ollama and LM Studio. The missing piece was a polished chat interface that feels native to the browser. Ollama Client fills that gap.
