Lightning Flash is a high-level PyTorch library built on PyTorch Lightning that provides ready-made 'recipes' for over 15 AI tasks across 7 data domains, including image classification, object detection, segmentation, tabular data, and more. It lets users load data, configure a task, and train or fine-tune state-of-the-art models with just a few lines of code.

Use cases

• fine-tune an image classifier on my own photos with minimal code
• train an object detection model without writing training loops
• do semantic segmentation on a folder of images and masks
• build a text classifier using pretrained transformers
• train a model on tabular csv data quickly
• quickly prototype deep learning models across many task types
• serve a trained model as an API endpoint

When to choose

• you want fast, few-lines-of-code fine-tuning of pretrained models for common tasks
• you are using PyTorch Lightning and want higher-level task abstractions
• you need to cover many data modalities (image, text, tabular, video, audio, graph) with one consistent API
• you are prototyping or teaching deep learning without boilerplate

When to avoid

• you need full control over model architecture and training loops
• you need cutting-edge or recently released models and techniques
• you require a project with frequent updates and active maintenance
• your task is not among the supported recipes
