# Local models and compatible endpoints

Choose Ollama or an OpenAI-compatible API for your model endpoint.

Choose the integration that matches your model server:

* [Ollama](/model-setup/use-supported-local-model-providers/with-the-ollama-provider.md) for Ollama's native API.
* [OpenAI-compatible API](/model-setup/use-supported-local-model-providers/with-openai-compatible-api.md) for endpoints that support OpenAI-compatible chat completions.

Both integrations can connect to a model server on your machine or another host. An OpenAI-compatible endpoint can also be operated by a hosted provider; API compatibility does not determine where data is processed.

BurpGPT Pro sends selected traffic, prompts, and chat messages to the configured endpoint. To keep model processing on infrastructure you control, check that the endpoint and model runtime do not forward requests to a cloud service.

After configuration, run `Test request` in `Provider settings` before scanning or using AI Chat.
