| Providers | Supported providers with your keys | Local models in the app |
| Continuity | Plus adds Hermes Bots and recovery | Session in the runner |
| Hardware | GGUF in RAM or VRAM from measured headroom | Local load settings in the runner |
Use LM Studio when you only need to load a GGUF and talk to it.
Use Velociti when the job has files, instructions, and a next turn that must survive a model change.
