What do you like best about Lightly?

Lightly’s AL is great in determining which data points are worth labeling to feed my machine learning models, and with less time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightly?

Some of the labeling tools that lightly provides are also rather rigid by themselves. When it comes to more intricate datasets where the data points are differentiated fine, the current ways of labeling seem restricted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lightly solving and how is that benefiting you?

Lightly has been a good for my team to label data. By choosing the most relevant data features, it greatly minimizes the number of samples that is to be labeled, which in return saves a lot of time and costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lightly Overview

What is Lightly?

Lightly helps machine learning teams to build better models through better data. It allows companies to select the right data for model training by using active learning. Intelligently select the best samples for model training through advanced filtering and active-learning algorithms. Balance your class distributions, remove redundancies and dataset bias. Label only the best data for model training until you reach your target accuracy. Analyze the quality and diversity of your datasets. Better understand your data with Lightly's holistic views from the big picture down to the smallest nuances of your data. Uncover class distributions, dataset gaps, and representation biases before labeling to save time and money. Monitor your model performance in production. Spot outliers and failure cases. Select out-of-distribution data directly on the edge or cloud. Send data back for retraining and updating the model. Manage your dataset. Track different versions, and once your dataset is ready, simply share with labeling with the click of a button. That's Lightly: The end-to-end active learning solution.

What do you like best about Lightly?

Lightly's data labeling application is intuitive and you don't have to be an expert at coding due to the reusable examples. The active learning and pre-labeling tools are especially useful, and the integration with machine learning frameworks streamlines the entire workflow from labeling to model training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightly?

The advanced features can have a bit of a learning curve. More video examples, such as GIFs, in the tutorial docs would help new users get up to speed faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lightly solving and how is that benefiting you?

Lightly efficiently labels data for video summarization projects, crucial for training accurate machine learning models. This has accelerated our projects and improved productivity since you can work directly with the video as opposed to individual frames, allowing us to focus more on selecting the best summarized snippets and deliver better results for clients.

What do you like best about Lightly?

Automating data curation and selecting the most reasonable data for labeling is a significant time-saver, and it can also handle large datasets with ease, processing millions of images or thousands of videos daily swiftly- this feature is loved by my team. It is so easy to incorporate into our workflow. Implementation was super easy as our team was easily able to set it up in just a week, with full support from the Lightly team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightly?

While comprehensive, I feel documentation could be more detailed for complex use cases, and the platform UI could be more intuitive and visually appealing. I guess for smaller teams or startups, the pricing may be a bit steep; more flexible pricing options could be beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lightly solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have integrated it with multiple data sources like AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, and local storage, and our scheduling job runs directly from Python code ensures complete control and reproducibility- our ML teams' productivity has increased by huge margin.
