LM Studio is free for use at work. A notable policy change for LM Studio. Their excellent macOS app (and Linux and Windows, but I've only tried it on Mac) was previously free for personal use but required a license for commercial purposes:
Until now, the LM Studio app terms stated that for use at a company or organization, you should get in touch with us and get separate commercial license. This requirement is now removed.
Starting today, there's no need to fill a form or contact us. You and your team can just use LM Studio at work!
