Smart model router cuts AI costs by 70%, mixes providers and local models.
Core Features
- Intelligent routing based on complexity, specificity, and custom headers
- Mix providers: API keys, subscriptions, local models
- Track spending with notifications and limits
- Automatic fallback on model failure
- Supports 300+ models across 16 providers
What It Can't Do
- •Beta software, some features may be unstable. 2. Routing rules need tuning for optimal savings. 3. Self-hosted requires server maintenance.
Use Cases
- Startups reducing AI costs by blending subscriptions and pay-per-use
- Developers using local models for simple tasks to save money
- Enterprises centralizing model access and budget control
Manifest is an intelligent model routing layer for AI applications and agents. It automatically selects the most cost-effective model for each query based on complexity, specificity, and custom rules, reducing AI API costs by up to 70%. Supports 300+ models across 16 providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, local models (Ollama, LM Studio), and subscriptions (ChatGPT Plus, Claude Pro). Offers both cloud and self-hosted options with Docker. Features include provider mixing, fallback handling, spending tracking, and custom routing headers.

unsloth
Unsloth is the first desktop app to run and train AI models locally. It supports a wide range of models including Qwen3.8, Kimi K3, MiniMax-H3, Gemma 4, DeepSeek-V4, and FLUX. Unlike most local model tools that focus only on inference, Unsloth adds a full training stack: fine-tune LLMs, diffusion, TTS, and embedding models 2× faster with 70% less VRAM. It also supports LoRA, QLoRA, RL, GRPO, DPO, and FP8. The app includes built-in Agents & Tools integration (Claude Code, Codex, MCP), private search and RAG, image/video diffusion, and audio support. With hardware support for CPU, NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, macOS, and multi-GPU setups, plus remote access via Cloudflare, Unsloth is a comprehensive local AI studio. It can export to GGUF, NVFP4, FP8 and offers an OpenAI-compatible API for easy deployment.
