AutoML software can automate parts of developing machine-learning models, but the listed capabilities vary. Compare automated model selection and feature engineering, then look at model explainability, deployment options and hosting model to understand the approaches available. Workflow interface is another consideration for how development tasks are organized. FEDOT, LightAutoML and AutoGluon are among the entries, alongside Amazon SageMaker Autopilot and Auto-PyTorch. Check for a free plan and compare paid-from pricing as well.
