It’s an easy to use inference server for computer vision models.

The end result is a Docker container that serves a standardized API as a microservice that your application uses to get predictions from computer vision models (though there is also a native Python interface).

It’s backed by a bunch of component pieces:

* a server (so you don’t have to reimplement things like image processing & prediction visualization on every project)

* standardized APIs for computer vision tasks (so switching out the model weights and architecture can be done independently of your application code)

* model architecture implementations (which implement the tensor parsing glue between images & predictions) for supervised models that you've fine-tuned to perform custom tasks

* foundation model implementations (like CLIP & SAM) that tend to chain well with fine-tuned models

* reusable utils to make adding support for new models easier

* a model registry (so your code can be independent from your model weights & you don't have to re-build and re-deploy every time you want to iterate on your model weights)

* data management integrations (so you can collect more images of edge cases to improve your dataset & model the more it sees in the wild)

* ecosystem (there are tens of thousands of fine-tuned models shared by users that you can use off the shelf via Roboflow Universe[1])

Additionally, since it's focused specifically on computer vision, it has specific CV-focused features (like direct camera stream input) and makes some different tradeoffs than other more general ML solutions (namely, optimized for small-fast models that run at the edge & need support for running on many different devices like NVIDIA Jetsons and Raspberry Pis in addition to beefy cloud servers).

* Most of the time I find Roboflow extremely handy, I used it to merge datasets, augmentate, read tutorials and that kind of thing. Basically you just create your dataset with roboflow and focus on other aspects.

For computer vision, there are 100k+ open source classification, object detection, and segmentation datasets available on Roboflow Universe: https://universe.roboflow.com

Solid website and app overall for learning more about computer vision, discovering datasets, and keeping up with advancements in the field: * https://roboflow.com/learn * https://universe.roboflow.com (datasets) | https://blog.roboflow.com/computer-vision-datasets-and-apis/ * https://blog.roboflow.com

If you're lacking training images, you can also use [Roboflow Universe](https://universe.roboflow.com) to obtain them (over 100 million labeled images available)

Roboflow is the fastest way to use computer vision in production. We help developers give their software the sense of sight. Our end-to-end platform[1] provides tooling for image collection, annotation, dataset exploration and curation, training, and deployment.

Over 100k engineers (including engineers from 2/3 Fortune 100 companies) build with Roboflow. And we now host the largest collection[2] of open source computer vision datasets and pre-trained models[3].

We have several openings available, but are primarily looking for strong technical generalists who want to help us democratize computer vision and like to wear many hats and have an outsized impact. (We especially love hiring past and future founders.)

We're hiring 3 full-stack engineers this quarter and we're also looking for an infrastructure engineer with Elasticsearch experience.

Based on what I do/use when I prepare models: A good framework for creating and improving this dataset faster is to use Roboflow Universe and search “flowers” and “bouquets of flowers” in the search bar (it’s like Google Images for CV Datasets). You can search images by subject, or metadata, and clone them directly into a free public workspace (they house up to 10k images without charge). * https://universe.roboflow.com/ * https://universe.roboflow.com/search?q=flowers * https://universe.roboflow.com/search?q=bouqets

Lots of ideas will come to mind if you look and search through open source datasets: https://universe.roboflow.com/

It would be a shame not to mention PostHog as the telemetry provider we are using, since it turned out to be extremely useful. Because it is hard to find people who will talk with you about your product, gathering statistics gave us a much greater insight into our users.

6- PostHog

Hi HN, PostHog employee here. I'm working on our Web Analytics product, which is currently in beta. It's fun to see us mentioned here :)

I should mention that we have a ton of SDKs (see https://posthog.com/docs/libraries) for back end frameworks and languages, so if you wanted to use PostHog without any client-side JS you could send pageviews and other events manually, but for the vast majority of people it makes more sense to use our JS snippet.

Hijacking this comment to share the roadmap for web analytics https://github.com/PostHog/posthog/issues/18547. It's very much in the launch-early-and-be-embarassed phase, but I would love to hear any feedback or suggestions that people have, particularly if you're already a PostHog user.

how's this different than https://posthog.com/ ?

PostHog - Open Source Alternative to Mixpanel

Don't insert the logs/events/analytics into your Application DB. Usually, you send those to specialist datastores (OLAP etc) that process such high volume of data. You can use something like clickhouse [0] for example or use 3rd party SAAS solutions like posthog [1] etc that are built on top of clickhouse

I may use Flask-Admin initially to offload the "CRUD" operations to have an initial prototype fast but then drop it ASAP because I don't want to write a "flask-admin application" to fight against later on. If the application is mainly "CRUD", then Flask-Admin is suitable.

Now...

Would you do a breakdown/list of all the jobs you've done by sector/vertical and by function/role and by application functionality?

PostHog | Remote (US/Europe timezones) | Full stack engineer, technical ex-founder, tech lead | https://posthog.com

PostHog is the only open-source Product OS, combining product analytics, session recordings, feature flags, cdp and a data warehouse in one.

We have a culture of written async communication (see our handbook [0]), lots of individual responsibility and an opportunity to make a huge impact. Being fully remote means we're able to create a team that is truly diverse. We're based all over the world, and the team includes former YC founders, CTOs turned developers and recent grads.

There seems to be posthog.com analytics and AB or feature flag functionality that is blocked by adblockers. Probably that?
