Supervision

A Python toolkit that helps programmers build computer-vision apps, such as counting objects in video.

What it does

Computer vision is AI that understands images and video, for example spotting cars, people or products. Supervision doesn't provide the AI model itself; it's the toolkit around it. You plug in a detection or classification model of your choice and Supervision handles the common jobs.

Those jobs include drawing boxes and labels on images, tracking objects across video frames, counting things that enter a zone, and loading, splitting, merging and converting image datasets between popular formats.

Who it's for

Python developers and researchers building image or video analysis tools.
