Unsloth Studio (Beta) lets you run and train text, [audio](https://unsloth.ai/docs/basics/text-to-speech-tts-fine-tuning), [embedding](https://unsloth.ai/docs/new/embedding-finetuning), [vision](https://unsloth.ai/docs/basics/vision-fine-tuning) models on Windows, Linux and macOS.
## ⭐ Features
Unsloth provides several key features for both inference and training:
### Inference
* **Search + download + run models** including GGUF, LoRA adapters, safetensors
* **Export models**: [Save or export](https://unsloth.ai/docs/new/studio/export) models to GGUF, 16-bit safetensors and other formats.
* **Tool calling**: Support for [self-healing tool calling](https://unsloth.ai/docs/new/studio/chat#auto-healing-tool-calling) and web search
* **[Code execution](https://unsloth.ai/docs/new/studio/chat#code-execution)**: lets LLMs test code in Claude artifacts and sandbox environments
* [Auto-tune inference parameters](https://unsloth.ai/docs/new/studio/chat#auto-parameter-tuning) and customize chat templates.
* Upload images, audio, PDFs, code, DOCX and more file types to chat with.
### Training
* Train **500+ models** up to **2x faster** with up to **70% less VRAM**, with no accuracy loss.
* Supports full fine-tuning, pretraining, 4-bit, 16-bit and, FP8 training.
* **Observability**: Monitor training live, track loss and GPU usage and customize graphs.
* **Data Recipes**: [Auto-create datasets](https://unsloth.ai/docs/new/studio/data-recipe) from **PDF, CSV, DOCX** etc. Edit data in a visual-node workflow.
* **Reinforcement Learning**: The most efficient [RL](https://unsloth.ai/docs/get-started/reinforcement-learning-rl-guide) library, using **80% less VRAM** for GRPO, [FP8](https://unsloth.ai/docs/get-started/reinforcement-learning-rl-guide/fp8-reinforcement-learning) etc.
* [Multi-GPU](https://unsloth.ai/docs/basics/multi-gpu-training-with-unsloth) training is supported, with major improvements coming soon.
## ⚡ Quickstart
Unsloth can be used in two ways: through **[Unsloth Studio](https://unsloth.ai/docs/new/studio/)**, the web UI, or through **Unsloth Core**, the code-based version. Each has different requirements.
### Unsloth Studio (web UI)
Unsloth Studio (Beta) works on **Windows, Linux, WSL** and **macOS**.
* **CPU:** Supported for Chat and Data Recipes currently
* **NVIDIA:** Training works on RTX 30/40/50, Blackwell, DGX Spark, Station and more
* **macOS:** Currently supports chat and Data Recipes. **MLX training** is coming very soon
* **AMD:** Chat works. Train with [Unsloth Core](#unsloth-core-code-based). Studio support is coming soon.
* **Coming soon:** Training support for Apple MLX, AMD, and Intel.
* **Multi-GPU:** Available now, with a major upgrade on the way
