LM Link: Access models on your powerful devices you own, as if they were local

Tailscale and LM Studio have partnered to launch LM Link, a feature that lets users securely access open-weight LLMs running on remote hardware they own as if those models were local. Built on Tailscale's tsnet (a userspace Go library), LM Link creates end-to-end encrypted peer-to-peer connections between devices without exposing anything to the public internet. Setup requires just a few clicks or terminal commands. Use cases include home power users offloading to a beefy desktop GPU, teams sharing large models internally, regulated industries keeping data on-prem, and developers running CI tests against large models privately.
