# Use supported local model providers

Version 3.0 supports local and self-hosted models through provider APIs rather than through the previous Python local server workflow.

Use one of the following options:

* [Ollama](/how-to/use-supported-local-model-providers/with-the-ollama-provider.md), when your model is served by Ollama.
* [OpenAI-compatible API](/how-to/use-supported-local-model-providers/with-openai-compatible-api.md), when your local or self-hosted runtime exposes an OpenAI-compatible `/v1` API.

{% hint style="info" %}
Local and self-hosted providers keep HTTP traffic on infrastructure you control. The extension still sends the selected request, response, prompt, and chat messages to the endpoint you configure.
{% endhint %}

After configuring a local provider, run `Test request` from `Provider settings` before scanning traffic or using `AI Chat`.
