You're labeling datasets in a browser tab. Your images are on someone else's server.

Upload gigabytes of sensitive images. Wait for the cloud to process every click. Hope their security holds. And if you work in defense, manufacturing, or anything with NDAs — cloud annotation is a non-starter. There's a better way.

How it works

Label offline. Train anywhere.

Open your image folder. No upload — everything stays on your machine, fully offline.

Draw bounding boxes at native speed. Keyboard-driven, zero lag per click.

Export YOLO txt, COCO JSON, or drop straight into your training pipeline.

What makes LabelForge different

Your data, your machine

Your data never leaves your machine. No cloud upload, no account, no privacy risk — period.

Native vs cloud

Cloud annotation tools make you upload everything before you can draw a single box. That means privacy risk, browser lag, and a subscription that follows you forever. LabelForge is a native desktop app: your images stay on your machine, 100% offline. Free to start; license it when you ship.

How is this different from Roboflow?

Roboflow is a cloud platform: you upload your data, you pay a recurring subscription, and every click waits on the browser. LabelForge is a native desktop app: your images never leave your machine, it works fully offline, and you license it — no subscription that follows you forever.
