Create ML vs. Fritz AI Studio

Mobile Machine Learning Technology Comparison
 

Many engineers who are looking for an ML provider for their mobile project consider Create ML. This is Apple’s official model training platform, purpose-built for on-device iOS models. As such, it is closely connected to other Apple tools and systems. As such, it is a useful option for building initial ML models for iOS deployment, and includes a wide range of model types to start building with, in computer vision, natural language processing, and more. Create ML is also readily-accessible from Xcode, Apple’s IDE for building iOS apps. However, models built with Create ML can’t be deployed to Android, and developers must come to Create ML with fully-constructed and labeled datasets.

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.
