Dyad supports a wide range of AI models, including:
- cloud model: Google Gemini, Claude, OpenAI, etc., which require networking to call the API.
- local model: Ollama, LM Studio, can run completely offline.
Recommendations for selecting a model:
- privacy first: Use of local models (e.g. Ollama), suitable for sensitive data projects.
- Free Experience: Google Gemini offers a daily API quota of 250 free messages.
- performance needs: Cloud-based models are typically more responsive and suitable for rapid iterative development.
Users have the flexibility to switch between models in the Dyad setup without having to reinstall the tool.
