Answer first

How do I decide whether a workflow should use a local model?

Score the workflow for privacy sensitivity, regulatory pull, latency need, volume, hardware readiness, open-weight fit, and team capability; strong local candidates should start with a small specialist and a fitness packet.

Answer first

Use this planner when a workflow has private context, regulated data, high latency sensitivity, high token volume, or strong user trust value. The tool recommends a first local model path and a model-breeding next step.

Local AI Adoption Planner

Score a workflow for local-first, hybrid, or lab-first adoption. The result is a teaching aid and starting point for an evidence packet.

How to use it

Score the workflow honestly. A high score means the first implementation should probably be local-first. A medium score suggests hybrid routing. A low score suggests using local AI as a learning lab before production.

Local-first model ecologyBuild local retrieval, choose a small parent, and preserve a first release packet.
Hybrid local-cloud routeKeep private and high-volume subtasks local; escalate minimized context when approved.
Lab-first explorationStart with a local demo, scorecard, or classroom/workbench experiment.
