I remember a previous version from about 2 years ago... I think Lobe.ai was web-based, at the time? And you could drag and drop various blocks around to do image recognition and analysis? I probably have some of the details wrong but the demos were very impressive. While I never got approved for that beta (probably rightly so, I'm just some random person with no actual connection to ML or AI), I was excited to see what their work led to. Congrats on releasing this latest iteration and acquisition!

Thank you! And you are right, the general idea of Lobe 1.0 is in your message! For Lobe 2.0 we switched a bit as you can see, and the good news is, you can go and download the app at lobe.ai without the need to wait any longer! The reasoning behind the change and the why we abstracted some of those details you are mentioning was to actually make it even more accessible for people to be able to build machine learning models. We think that this is a paradigm that should be used by everyone, and that’s why stripping down the onion of complexity was really important for us when we started with this project.

Thank you so much! We deeply explored how to make it easy for anyone to get started with machine learning. We looked at where people were spending the most time getting started and iterating on creating a custom machine learning model. This is why we expanded Lobe to focus on 3 fundamental steps: 1. Collecting & labeling images 2. Training your model and evaluating the results 3. Playing with your model and seeing how well its performing
