No release since 0.8.4 on 23 July 2026, while a security fix waits on main.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### GPT4All\n\n1. Ask the owner to tick Enable Local API Server in Settings. Nothing answers on port 4891 until they do\n2. Leave out `stream`, `tools`, `tool_choice` and `response_format`. The server returns 400 for each\n3. Use the model's display name from /v1/models, such as \"Phi-3 Mini Instruct\"\n4. Read LocalDocs snippets from `choices[0].references`. Collections can only be switched on in the app\n5. Plan tool use outside GPT4All. Its API can't call tools\n\n### Jan\n\n1. Ask the owner to start the server (Settings, Local API Server) or run `jan serve`. Nothing listens until then\n2. Call http://127.0.0.1:1337/v1 for the app and localhost:6767/v1 for `jan serve`. The ports differ\n3. Read /openapi.json from the running server, not the spec on the docs site, which describes the retired Cortex API\n4. Branch on the status code. Error bodies are plain text\n5. Keep the bind at 127.0.0.1 on 0.8.4. Trusted Hosts is ignored on 0.0.0.0 until the next release\n\n## Other comparisons with GPT4All or Jan\n\n- [AnythingLLM vs GPT4All](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/anythingllm-vs-gpt4all.md)\n- [AnythingLLM vs Jan](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/anythingllm-vs-jan.md)\n- [GPT4All vs Khoj](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-khoj.md)\n- [GPT4All vs llama.cpp](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-llama-cpp.md)\n- [GPT4All vs LM Studio](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-lm-studio.md)\n- [GPT4All vs LocalAI](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-localai.md)\n- [GPT4All vs Ollama](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-ollama.md)\n- [GPT4All vs Open WebUI](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-open-webui.md)\n- [GPT4All vs screenpipe](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-screenpipe.md)\n- [Jan vs Khoj](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/jan-vs-khoj.md)\n- [Jan vs llama.cpp](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/jan-vs-llama-cpp.md)\n- [Jan vs LM Studio](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/jan-vs-lm-studio.md)\n- [Jan vs LocalAI](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/jan-vs-localai.md)\n- [Jan vs Ollama](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/jan-vs-ollama.md)\n- [Jan vs Open WebUI](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/jan-vs-open-webui.md)\n- [Jan vs screenpipe](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/jan-vs-screenpipe.md)\n- [GPT4All vs Underdog](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-underdog.md)\n- [Jan vs Underdog](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/jan-vs-underdog.md)\n- [GPT4All vs LocalGhost](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gpt4all-vs-localghost.md)\n",
