5 releases in the last 90 days, the latest 7 days ago, with 173 contributors on GitHub.
The biggest single-day gain in the last year, +518 stars on Aug 18, coincided with release v1.1.10.
Use Cases & Benefits
- Provides a terminal tool that detects your hardware and recommends which large language models (LLMs) will run efficiently on it.
- Enables precise model fit scoring across quality, speed, memory, and context dimensions to find the best LLMs for your specific system configuration.
- Use for selecting optimal LLMs to run locally on diverse hardware setups including multi-GPU and CPU-only systems.
- Use for planning hardware upgrades by simulating model requirements and estimating needed RAM, VRAM, and CPU cores.
- Use for integrating LLM selection into automated workflows via its REST API and JSON CLI outputs for scripting and cluster scheduling.

From the README
Windows binaries are now code-signed! All Windows releases are signed via SignPath Foundation, providing Authenticode signatures so you can trust that downloads haven't been tampered with.
Hundreds of models & providers. One command to find what runs on your hardware.
A terminal tool that right-sizes LLM models to your system's RAM, CPU, and GPU. Detects your hardware, scores each model across quality, speed, fit, and context dimensions, and tells you which ones will actually run well on your machine.
Ships with an interactive TUI (default) and a classic CLI mode. Supports multi-GPU setups, MoE architectures, dynamic quantization selection, speed estimation, and local runtime providers (Ollama, llama.cpp, MLX, Docker Model Runner, LM Studio).
New: Download Manager (
D), Advanced Configuration (A), and Hardware Simulation — PressDto manage downloads, view history, delete models, and configure the download directory. PressAto tune TPS efficiency, run mode factors, and scoring weights. PressSto simulate different hardware.Sister projects:
- sympozium — managing agents in Kubernetes.
- llmserve — a simple TUI for serving local LLM models. Pick a model, pick a backend, serve it.
- llama-panel — a native macOS app for managing local llama-server instances.
