Early access: DeGirum Cloud Compiler is live!

Over the past few months, we’ve seen a steady stream of questions from developers trying to compile YOLO models for different edge AI devices—especially Hailo. We offered help where we could, but it became clear the toolchains were a common pain point.

So we built a tool to simplify things: the DeGirum Cloud Compiler.

It’s now in early access, and we’d love for you to try it out and let us know what works (and what doesn’t).

What is it?

The Cloud Compiler is a browser-based tool that converts YOLOv8 and YOLO11 PyTorch checkpoints into formats ready to deploy on a range of supported runtimes and devices. You upload a checkpoint, select a few options, and get back a compiled model—no local setup or toolchain required.

Compiled models can be tested in the browser right away or downloaded for use with DeGirum’s PySDK.

What it supports

Model types:

  • YOLOv8 and YOLO11 (n, s, m, l, x variants)
  • Tasks: object detection, classification, segmentation, keypoints, and oriented bounding boxes
  • Compatible with DeGirum PySDK

Target runtimes and devices:

  • HailoRT: Hailo-8, Hailo-8L
  • MemryX: MX3
  • OpenVINO: CPU, GPU, NPU
  • TFLite (LiteRT): CPU, Edge TPU
  • RKNN: RK3566, RK3568, RK3588
  • N2X: Orca1, CPU

(Support for DEEPX and Axelera AI is in progress.)

How it works

  1. Upload your PyTorch .pt checkpoint
  2. Select your input resolution and target hardware
  3. Optionally adjust advanced settings (e.g., quantization dataset)
  4. Click Compile

Your model will be compiled and added to the private Model Zoo in your AI Hub workspace. From there, you can test it in the browser or use it with PySDK.

Most compiles complete in under 10 minutes.

Why early access?

This is a new tool and we’re still improving it. We want to hear from developers using it in real-world workflows—what’s confusing, what’s missing, and what’s useful.

Early access is free, but access may change in the future. If it does, we’ll notify participants ahead of time.

How to get access

  1. Sign up for a free AI Hub account
  2. Request access here: Cloud Compiler Early Access Form
  3. Once enabled, you’ll have access to the Cloud Compiler in your workspace
