About LightlyTrain
LightlyTrain is an open source Python package for training computer vision models, including YOLO, ViTs, RT-DETR and DINOv3. It supports pretraining DINOv2/v3 models on unlabeled data, fine-tuning transformer and YOLO models for detection and segmentation, and model distillation including custom teachers.
It installs with pip on Python 3.8+ for Windows, Linux and macOS, and includes ONNX and TensorRT export. Use at work, in production, on the edge, or for proprietary models likely requires a commercial license.
