Local LLM

Ask questions about your data and drive Studio by natural language. Fully on-device.

The local LLM adds a chat panel to Sensitify Studio. Rename a stack of scans, recolour a plot, walk through what a voltammogram shows, or ask what to do next.

It runs entirely on your machine. Your data never leaves the laptop.

When to use it

How it works

Studio ships a quantised open-weights language model that loads into CPU or GPU memory on launch. The first run downloads the weights once; after that it is fully offline.

The model is wired to Studio's data layer and plot controls through a tool-use interface. It can read your scans, parameters, and fit results, and make the same edits you would make by clicking.

Every action the assistant takes is recorded in an action log: you see exactly which trace it renamed, which parameter it changed, which fit it ran. Accept or undo in one click.

Parameters you set

Model

Typical: 8B-class quantised

Default is a compact instruction-tuned model sized for laptop use. A larger option is available for workstations with enough memory.

Compute

CPU by default; GPU (CUDA, Metal, or ROCm) used automatically when available.

Scope

Typical: Plot edits

Choose what the assistant can touch: read-only, plot edits, analysis actions, or full access. Scope is remembered per project.

Context

Which scans and analyses are in the assistant's view. Pinning a subset keeps the context focused and responses precise.

Example

Walkthrough

Batch-label a CV calibration series

  1. 1Open a folder of 12 CV scans recorded across a concentration sweep.
  2. 2In the assistant panel, type: "Rename each scan with the concentration from its metadata, formatted as 'DA 50 nM'."
  3. 3The assistant reads the metadata and proposes new names in a preview table.
  4. 4Click Apply. The scan list updates and the action log records the rename.
  5. 5Follow up: "Build a calibration curve from peak currents with a 3σ LOD."

Result

A labelled scan list ready for peak finding, with the renames and calibration fit reproducible from the chat log.

In Sensitify Studio

The assistant panel is a toggle in the right rail of Sensitify Studio. It ships with the software; the model downloads on first use. Nothing leaves your machine.
