    README, read for a paid tier (none - "100% free and private"): local AI server with OpenAI/Anthropic/Ollama APIs, Lemonade Server and Embeddable Lemonade flavors, Windows/macOS/Linux/Docker/Snap/PPA distribution, chat, image gen, speech gen and transcription models on NPU and GPU.

Adoption

2 low confidence
2.0

Lemonade ships as OS installers, Docker images, a Snap and a PPA, none of which this map's pipeline can count, and the PyPI package once used for adoption no longer exists. That leaves GitHub stars as the only measurable signal, though a star reflects attention rather than actual use.

Capability

3 medium confidence
3.0

Lemonade sits two tiers below vLLM, level with llamafile and uzu among the local engines. Its NPU support and multi-modal coverage are broader than those other single-node engines, but it runs on llama.cpp and ONNX Runtime underneath and has no distributed or datacenter serving surface.
