## Choose when

### Choose classifai if…

- classifai is primarily PHP; alice is JavaScript.
- License: classifai is GPL-2.0, alice is Other.
- Tags unique to classifai: ai, artificial-intelligence, classification, content-tagging.
- Also covers Computer Vision.
- When you need advanced content tagging and automatic categorization through computer vision on a WordPress site.

### Choose alice if…

- alice is primarily JavaScript; classifai is PHP.
- License: alice is Other, classifai is GPL-2.0.
- Tags unique to alice: ai-tools, annotation, dataset, frigate.
- Also covers Data & Retrieval.
- alice ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- When you need a toolkit that seamlessly integrates with Docker for dataset management in conjunction with YOLO models.

## When NOT to use classifai

- For projects where the minimum PHP version required is below 7.4, given that ClassifAI mandates at least this version.
- When there's a need for a more lightweight solution without the overhead of integrating with multiple external services like Microsoft Azure or IBM Watson.

## When NOT to use alice

- Do not use if your project does not require integration with the YOLO model for object detection tasks.
- Avoid if you prefer tools that handle NVIDIA drivers and CUDA toolkit installations automatically without requiring manual pre-installation by users.
