Show HN: LocalClaw – Find the right local LLM for your exact hardware
localclaw.ioI built this because I kept seeing the same question everywhere / "what model should I run on my 16GB Mac?" or "will this fit on my 4060?"
LocalClaw matches your exact hardware (OS, RAM, GPU VRAM) to the right model + quantization out of 125+ options. Takes about 30 seconds.
It recommends for LM Studio specifically, shows file sizes, speed/quality scores, and explains WHY a model fits your setup (RAM usage %, VRAM fit, context window overhead).
Everything runs in the browser. No data collected, no account needed.
Built this in Switzerland, feedback welcome /|/ especially if a recommendation feels off for your hardware.
I'm currently building a full MAC application to install HomeBrew, Node, LM Studio, an adapted LLM, and OpenClaw locally.
WIP V1 is done, but I want a one-click solution
Major UI update on localclaw.io + Dark/Light version added
