When NOT to use lemonade
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- - If you do not have access to a compatible GPU or NPU device for running the LLMs locally.
- - For projects requiring cloud-based services and APIs over local deployment, Lemonade may introduce additional complexity in setup and maintenance compared to fully managed solutions.
