Amazon SageMaker vs. Fritz AI Studio

Mobile Machine Learning Technology Comparison
 

Many engineers who are looking for an ML provider for their mobile project consider Amazon SageMaker. It’s a platform to build, train, and deploy machine learning models and is a part of the Amazon Web Services family. The platform includes a selection of tools that span the machine learning project lifecycle, from managing datasets, all the way deploying and managing models in production. Though it does have a toolkit (SageMaker Neo) for deploying models to edge devices like mobile phones, SageMaker is primarily focused on cloud-based deployment, making some of its features limited in terms of helping build and deploy mobile-ready models.

Fritz AI Studio is a machine learning platform built specifically for iOS and Android developers who may not have an ML background. Customers use it to generate and collect labeled datasets, train optimized models without code, deploy and manage on any mobile platforms, and improve models and app UX based on real-world data.
