Open WebUI is an open-source, self-hosted web interface for interacting with and managing Large Language models. It supports multiple AI backends, multi-user access, and extensible integrations, enabling secure and customizable deployment for local or remote model inference.

Our Marketplace applcation deploys Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3 as an instruction-tuned, open-weight LLM model optimized for prompt following, reasoning, and conversational tasks. It is designed for efficient inference and integrates well with self-hosted platforms like Open WebUI for general-purpose assistance, coding, and knowledge-based workflows.

## Getting Started After Deployment

### Accessing Open WebUI Frontend

Once your app has finished deplying, you can log into Open WebUI using your browser.

1. Log into the instance as your limited sudo user, replacing `{{< placeholder "USER" >}}` with the sudo username you created, and `{{< placeholder "IP_ADDRESS" >}}` with the instance's IPv4 address:

```command
ssh {{< placeholder "USER" >}}@{{< placeholder "IP_ADDRESS" >}}
```

2. Upon logging into the instance you will notice that a banner will appear and will contain the **App URL**. Open your browser and paste the link which will direct you to the login for Open WebUI.
