---

ort is a Rust interface for performing hardware-accelerated inference & training on machine learning models in the Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) format.

Based on the now-inactive onnxruntime-rs crate, ort is primarily a wrapper for Microsoft's ONNX Runtime library, but offers support for other pure-Rust runtimes.

ort with ONNX Runtime is super quick - and it supports almost any hardware accelerator you can think of. Even still, it's light enough to run on your users' devices.

When you need to deploy a PyTorch/TensorFlow/Keras/scikit-learn/PaddlePaddle model either on-device or in the datacenter, ort has you covered.
