This is Ultralytics

We are Ultralytics, and we’re here to make AI easy. Our purpose is to make model development accessible, efficient to train, and easy to deploy. It’s been a remarkable journey, but we’re just getting started.

Vision

To create a future where every person, regardless of means or background, has equal access to transformative AI, enabling them to seize opportunities and shape their own path. Aware that our time is finite, we strive to make a lasting impact that benefits future generations.

Mission

To move the world forward by first moving ourselves, continuously pushing the boundaries of AI through relentless execution, creating the world's best open-source solutions that benefit everyone equally and empower individuals to improve their lives and the lives of those around them.

Our values

Relentless Progress
We are constantly evolving and improving. Just as life is ever-changing, we never rest at the middle—we aim for continuous progress in everything we do. We rise after every fall, knowing that lasting success is built through consistency.
Strive for Excellence
True excellence is achieved through perseverance. We believe that even the smallest details matter, and through steady refinement, we create great things.
Actions, Not Words
We are defined by what we do, not what we say we will do. We focus on delivering results that truly matter, action by action.
Act with Urgency
Our time is finite, and we do not know how finite. Opportunities are fleeting, and we move swiftly to capture them in a competitive world.
Open Access to All
We value open, honest, and transparent communication, where everyone’s voice is heard and respected. We believe that sharing information openly and constructively empowers our team to collaborate effectively and innovate.

Fun facts

100K

Right now, Ultralytics open-source repositories have more than 100K stars on GitHub! Three years after the first release, we are thrilled that the community loves our technology as much as we do. It's been amazing to see all of the use cases you've come up with, and we've excited to see how you change the world with YOLO.

750+

At this time, we have over 750+ contributors to our open-source efforts. Without the support of the community and contributors, Ultralytics YOLO would not be what it is today.

6%

Did you know that 6% of Ultralytics YOLO users are high school students? And, we even have some users who are in middle school.
