Those are the two I thought it looked most similar to but i have zero experience identifying, not sure which markings and body shapes differentiate the two. From what I’ve read neither make webs (this one also doesn’t) and they are very similar in shape and markings.

Found this on my living room wall and curious as to what kind of spider it is?
I think this is a running crab spider.
I think family Sparassidae is correct. I’ve only identified one in-person, so far. So, I haven’t learned to tell them apart in more detail yet.
