EWACS
Run open models on your own machine.
A desktop app that speaks the Ollama and OpenAI APIs unchanged — with a commercial-use-aware marketplace behind it, so every model you pull is licensed to ship. Install it, sign in, and chat.
One app. Two APIs. Your machine.
Point any Ollama or OpenAI client at EWACS and it just works — then add the things Ollama doesn't give you.
Ollama-compatible
The full /api/* surface — generate, chat, embeddings, tags, show, pull, create — with byte-for-byte streaming.
OpenAI surface
/v1/chat/completions with SSE, plus completions, embeddings, and models. Your OpenAI SDK doesn't know the difference.
Licensed to ship
Every model in the marketplace is curated for a license that permits commercial use — gated, so you never run what you can't ship.
Runs on your machine
Your weights, your hardware, your network. The app does the inference locally on Windows and Linux; macOS best-effort.
One-click models
Sign in, pick a model from the catalog, and the app pulls and loads it for you — no manifests, no registries to wrangle.
Pluggable inference
Engines sit behind a trait, so the app can grow new backends and hardware support without changing the APIs your clients use.
Installed and chatting in a minute.
No build, no toolchain. Download the app, sign in, and pull a model.
Pick a model & chat
Choose a model from the catalog; the app pulls, loads, and runs it locally. Start chatting.
Already running? Point your existing Ollama or OpenAI client at localhost:11434 — the /api/* and /v1/* endpoints work unchanged.
Pull models you're allowed to use.
We run a curated marketplace of open-source models whose licenses permit commercial use. We do the license homework so you don't have to: the license travels with every model, and a non-commercial license is a hard stop, not a footnote. You just sign in and pull — the app handles the rest.
