LLMFit is a free, open-source terminal tool that analyzes your CPU, GPU, RAM, and VRAM to recommend which local LLMs will actually run well on your hardware. It ranks over 250 models by composite score across quality, speed, fit, and context dimensions, and integrates directly with Ollama and llama.cpp so you can launch models without switching apps. Each recommendation includes a workload label (coding, chat, image generation, MoE) to help newcomers pick the right model. Installation on Windows requires just three commands via Scoop. The main caveat is that the model list is somewhat outdated and needs more frequent updates, but it's a solid starting point before committing to large downloads.
