Run and train AI models with a unified local interface.

Features • Quickstart • Notebooks • Documentation • Reddit

Unsloth Studio (Beta) lets you run and train text, audio, embedding, vision models on Windows, Linux and macOS.

⭐ Features

Unsloth provides several key features for both inference and training:

Inference

• Search + download + run models including GGUF, LoRA adapters, safetensors
• Export models: Save or export models to GGUF, 16-bit safetensors and other formats.
• Tool calling: Support for self-healing tool calling and web search
• Code execution: lets LLMs test code in Claude artifacts and sandbox environments
• Auto-tune inference parameters and customize chat templates.
• We work directly with teams behind gpt-oss, Qwen3, Llama 4, Mistral, Gemma 1-3, and Phi-4, where we’ve fixed bugs that improve model accuracy.
• Upload images, audio, PDFs, code, DOCX and more file types to chat with.

Training

• Train and RL 500+ models up to 2x faster with up to 70% less VRAM, with no accuracy loss.
• Custom Triton and mathematical kernels. See some collabs we did with PyTorch and Hugging Face.
• Data Recipes: Auto-create datasets from PDF, CSV, DOCX etc. Edit data in a visual-node workflow.
• Reinforcement Learning (RL): The most efficient RL library, using 80% less VRAM for GRPO, FP8 etc.
• Supports full fine-tuning, RL, pretraining, 4-bit, 16-bit and, FP8 training.
• Observability: Monitor training live, track loss and GPU usage and customize graphs.
• Multi-GPU training is supported, with major improvements coming soon.

⚡ Quickstart

Unsloth can be used in two ways: through Unsloth Studio, the web UI, or through Unsloth Core, the code-based version. Each has different requirements.

Unsloth Studio (web UI)

Unsloth Studio (Beta) works on Windows, Linux, WSL and macOS.

• CPU: Supported for Chat and Data Recipes currently
• NVIDIA: Training works on RTX 30/40/50, Blackwell, DGX Spark, Station and more
• macOS: Currently supports chat and Data Recipes. MLX training is coming very soon
• AMD: Chat + Data works. Train with Unsloth Core. Studio support is out soon.
• Coming soon: Training support for Apple MLX, AMD, and Intel.
• Multi-GPU: Available now, with a major upgrade on the way

macOS, Linux, WSL:

curl -fsSL https://unsloth.ai/install.sh | sh

Windows:

irm https://unsloth.ai/install.ps1 | iex

Launch

unsloth studio -H 0.0.0.0 -p 8888

Update

To update, use the same install commands as above. Or run (does not work on Windows):

unsloth studio update

Docker

Use our Docker image unsloth/unsloth container. Run:

docker run -d -e JUPYTER_PASSWORD="mypassword" \
  -p 8888:8888 -p 8000:8000 -p 2222:22 \
  -v $(pwd)/work:/workspace/work \
  --gpus all \
  unsloth/unsloth

Developer, Nightly, Uninstall

To see developer, nightly and uninstallation etc. instructions, see advanced installation.

Unsloth Core (code-based)

Linux, WSL:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
uv venv unsloth_env --python 3.13
source unsloth_env/bin/activate
uv pip install unsloth --torch-backend=auto

Windows:

winget install -e --id Python.Python.3.13
winget install --id=astral-sh.uv  -e
uv venv unsloth_env --python 3.13
.\unsloth_env\Scripts\activate
uv pip install unsloth --torch-backend=auto

For Windows, pip install unsloth works only if you have PyTorch installed. Read our Windows Guide. You can use the same Docker image as Unsloth Studio.

AMD, Intel:

For RTX 50x, B200, 6000 GPUs: uv pip install unsloth --torch-backend=auto. Read our guides for: Blackwell and DGX Spark.
To install Unsloth on AMD and Intel GPUs, follow our AMD Guide and Intel Guide.

Uninstall

You can uninstall Unsloth Studio by deleting its install folder usually located under $HOME/.unsloth/studio on Mac/Linux/WSL and %USERPROFILE%\.unsloth\studio on Windows. Using the rm -rf commands will delete everything, including your history, cache:

• ​ MacOS, WSL, Linux: rm -rf ~/.unsloth/studio
• ​ Windows (PowerShell): Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$HOME\.unsloth\studio"

For more info, see our docs.

Deleting model files

You can delete old model files either from the bin icon in model search or by removing the relevant cached model folder from the default Hugging Face cache directory. By default, HF uses:

• ​ MacOS, Linux, WSL: ~/.cache/huggingface/hub/
• ​ Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.cache\huggingface\hub\
