Its ease of use and time to deploy.

LM Studio makes it really easy to deploy LLMs locally and makes it brilliantly simple to harvest the power of Apple Silicone chips with their built in Neural Cores and benefit from Unified memory which allows you to dedicate previously unimaginable amount of VRAM for the purposes of running LLMs. You can finally have a really powerful AI running on your laptop that helps you to use leverage to achieve more when dealing with sensitive information on your device.

Absolutely beautiful User Interface. It's super easy to setup and start using. I've used ollama, but since the UI is a separate project, it's a bit difficult to setup. LM Studio also have very good collection of models available compared to Ollama. My favourite thing about LMS is it shows the model size upfront and I don't have to dig through to find it. CUDA runtime is also a great plus.
