For those unfamiliar, Open WebUI is a self-hosted AI interface, which you can use with local models with Ollama, OpenRouter, etc.

Also note there was a recent license change, which is why I didn't say 'Open source'. You can make your own judgements about that here:

See the link in the post for all the changes, there were too many to list and lots of quality of life improvements from what I can tell.

Should have just used AGPL from the start, instead of falling back to this fucked up modified BSD license. It wouldn't stop people from stripping the branding, but they'd have to release source code which would tell all users what they're actually using.
