Machine learning becomes more accessible to companies and individuals when there is less coding involved. If you are just starting your path in ML, feel free to check out these low-code and no-code platforms.

## What is the difference between low-code and no-code?

You have probably heard the terms ‘low-code’ and ‘no-code’ before.

Low-code simply stands for a reduced amount of coding. A lot of elements can be simply dragged and dropped from the library. However, it is also possible to customize them by writing your own code, which gives increased flexibility.

No-code platforms require no knowledge of programming at all. They can be used by different people like artists, teachers, top managers. They need AI in their work but don’t want to dive deep into programming and computer science. No-code solutions are quite limited in functionality but allow you to build something simple quickly.

In practice, the border between no-code and low-code platforms is pretty thin. Platforms that promote themselves as ‘no-code’ still usually leave some space for customization.

## Low-code platforms for beginners

### Lobe

This [ML platform](https://lobe.ai/) has project templates that are easy to use even for your first ML project. The project is relatively new, so only image classification is available right now. In the future, its creators also want to launch object detection and data classification templates. However, an image classifier is one of the most useful tools for retailers, advertisers, and business professionals, so be sure to check it out.

### Obviously AI

If you are looking for a convenient tool for making predictions based on data without writing code, [Obviously AI](https://www.obviously.ai/) is for you. It can be used by marketers and business owners who want to forecast revenue flow, optimize business processes, build a more effective supply chain, and conduct personalized automated marketing campaigns. All you need is to provide data, pick a column based on which your custom ML algorithm would be created, and get your report.
