Computer Vision Annotation Tool (CVAT)

CVAT – Computer Vision Annotation Tool - The open data annotation platform for AI | Product Hunt

CI Gitter chat Discord Coverage Status server pulls ui pulls DOI

CVAT is an interactive video and image annotation tool for computer vision. It is used by tens of thousands of users and companies around the world. CVAT is free and open-source.

A new repo: CVAT core team moved the active development of the tool to this new repository. Our mission is to help developers, companies and organizations around the world to solve real problems using the Data-centric AI approach.

Start using CVAT online for free: cvat.ai. Or set it up as a self-hosted solution: read here.

CVAT screencast

Quick start ⚡

Partners ❤️

CVAT is used by teams all over the world. If you use us, please drop us a line at contact@cvat.ai - and we'll add you to this list.

  • ATLANTIS, an open-source dataset for semantic segmentation of waterbody images, depeloped by iWERS group in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at University of South Carolina, is using CVAT. For developing a semantic segmentation dataset using CVAT, please check ATLANTIS published article, ATLANTIS Development Kit and annotation tutorial videos.
  • Onepanel is an open-source vision AI platform that fully integrates CVAT with scalable data processing and parallelized training pipelines.
  • DataIsKey uses CVAT as their prime data labeling tool to offer annotation services for projects of any size.
  • Human Protocol uses CVAT as a way of adding annotation service to the Human Protocol.
  • Cogito Tech LLC, a Human-in-the-Loop Workforce Solutions Provider, used CVAT in annotation of about 5,000 images for a brand operating in the fashion segment.
  • FiftyOne is an open-source dataset curation and model analysis tool for visualizing, exploring, and improving computer vision datasets and models that is tightly integrated with CVAT for annotation and label refinement.

CVAT online: cvat.ai

This is an online version of CVAT. It's free, efficient, and easy to use.

cvat.ai runs the latest version of the tool. You can create up to 10 tasks there and upload up to 500Mb of data to annotate. It will only be visible to you or people you assign to it.

For now, it does not have analytics features like management and monitoring the data annotation team.

We plan to enhance cvat.ai with new powerful features. Stay tuned!

Prebuilt Docker images 🐳

Prebuilt docker images are the easiest way to start using CVAT locally. They are available on Docker Hub:

The images have been downloaded more than 1M times so far.

REST API

CVAT has a REST API: documentation. Its current version is 2.0-alpha. We focus on its improvement, and the API may be changed in the next releases.

Screencasts 🎦

Here are some screencasts showing how to use CVAT.

Supported annotation formats

CVAT supports multiple annotation formats. You can select the format after clicking the "Upload annotation" and "Dump annotation" buttons. Datumaro dataset framework allows additional dataset transformations via its command line tool and Python library.
