Why we included this project
uzu runs LLMs on the device itself, targeting Mac, iPhone, and iPad apps. Instead of routing prompts to a cloud API, the engine handles the whole local pipeline, including model downloads, memory management, and chat sessions, through a straightforward API that ships in Rust, Python, Swift, and TypeScript. By using Apple's Metal and unified memory, it keeps inference quick and keeps all data on the device, which matters for offline work or privacy-sensitive products. A single runtime can serve several model families, so teams shipping AI features in desktop or iOS apps avoid wiring together separate backends.
