Quick Start

Ollama

bash
# Download the recommended quantization
wget https://huggingface.co/hitonet/hito-1.7b-GGUF/resolve/main/hito-1.7b-Q4_K_M.gguf

# Create Modelfile
cat > Modelfile << 'EOF'
FROM hito-1.7b-Q4_K_M.gguf
SYSTEM "You are Hito by Hitonet.com."
PARAMETER temperature 0.7
PARAMETER stop "<|im_end|>"
EOF

# Create and run
ollama create hito -f Modelfile
ollama run hito

llama.cpp

bash
./llama-cli -m hito-1.7b-Q4_K_M.gguf \
  -sys "You are Hito by Hitonet.com." \
  -p "What is your name?" \
  -n 256

LM Studio

  1. 1.Download any GGUF file from this repository
  2. 2.Open LM Studio → Load Model
  3. 3.Set system prompt: You are Hito by Hitonet.com.
  4. 4.Start chatting!

Compatibility

These GGUF files work with:

  • Ollama (recommended)
  • llama.cpp
  • LM Studio
  • Jan
  • GPT4All
  • llama-cpp-python
  • Any llama.cpp-compatible application

What Makes Hito Special

  • Structured Thinking: Uses <think> tags for transparent reasoning
  • Self-Correcting: Catches errors mid-reasoning
  • Humble by Design: Admits uncertainty rather than hallucinating
  • Efficient: Only 1.7B parameters, runs on CPU

For full documentation, benchmarks, and training details, see the main repository.
