Show HN: Goethe – The infrastructure for self-hosted AI

https://github.com/meshapplied/Goethe

Hey, we launched Goethe, because deploying models on hardware you control end-to-end is pain in the ass.

Goethe is like Vercel, but for AI models and hardware. It manages your models and hardware you point it and runs corresponding optimal inference. -- install it -- deploy any model you want -- get an API you can use with any client securely

First off, I like the name. I'm a big fan of his. Why is it named Goethe, is it a reference to some of his work or just a cool name?

It seems like a lighter weight non SAAS version of Ollama so I'll have to install it and play around!
