Peekaboo has a high degree of flexibility and compatibility in its visual analytics capabilities. It supports both locally running AI models such as llava and qwen2-vl models under the Ollama platform, and advanced models such as GPT-4 Vision and Claude, which are accessed in the cloud. This dual-mode design allows users to choose different computation methods according to their needs: using local models in scenarios that emphasize privacy and data security, and using cloud models for tasks that require more computational power.
The process of configuring AI models is also very convenient, and users can complete model switching and parameter setting through simple command line operations. For example, when using an Ollama native model, users simply install the Ollama service, download the required visual model, and then specify which model to use in Peekaboo's configuration file. This modular design makes it incredibly easy to change or upgrade analysis models, ensuring the long-term usability and scalability of the tool.
