Strengths and trade-offs
Intel Geti — where it wins
- Active learning ranks unlabeled images and suggests examples for annotation
- Built-in annotation, training, inference, and evaluation workflows
- Imports common dataset formats and exports models to OpenVINO IR
Where it doesn't
- The documented model framework is limited to OpenVINO
- Active-learning selection strategies are not named
- Installation options include local setup using Docker or source components
CVAT — where it wins
- Annotates images, video, and 3D data with brush/mask and shape tools
- AI-assisted labeling plus dataset import and export in computer-vision formats
- Offers a REST API, Python SDK, CLI, and cloud or self-hosted deployment
Where it doesn't
- The free online plan is limited to 1–2 members
- Solo plans are for personal workspaces; team collaboration requires a Team plan
- Its core focus is annotation and data workflows, not segmentation-model training
- Intel Geti9.2/10 · Free plan
