Deploy Ultralytics YOLO on Intel for high-performance inference

About Intel

Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) is an industry leader creating world-changing technology that enables global progress and enriches lives. Intel continuously advances semiconductor design and manufacturing to help address its customers' greatest challenges, embedding intelligence in the cloud, network, edge, and every computing device to transform business and society. OpenVINO™ is an open source toolkit that accelerates AI inference with lower latency and higher throughput, while maintaining accuracy and optimizing hardware use. It streamlines AI development and deep learning integration across computer vision, large language models, and generative AI.

Why choose Intel for YOLO?

Optimized for Ultralytics YOLO

Maximum throughput, minimal latency across Intel's full device lineup.

Edge-native performance

Edge-ready YOLO inference with FP32, FP16, and INT8 support. No accuracy trade-offs required.

Real-time inference

Sub-10ms inference across all major YOLO tasks, verified on Intel CPUs, GPUs, and NPUs.

Lower cost of ownership

Inference on existing Intel silicon. Lower costs, without compromising accuracy.

Easy integration

Up and running in minutes with the Ultralytics Python package or CLI. Same API, same workflow.

Future-proof

Always up to date with the latest YOLO models and Intel hardware. No pipeline rework required.

The complete solution

Build and refine your custom YOLO models on Ultralytics' industry-leading platform. From Ultralytics YOLO11 to YOLO26, access state-of-the-art architectures, curated datasets, and powerful optimization tools, all designed to get you to production faster.
Convert and quantize your trained model to OpenVINO in a single command. The export process generates an optimized model package, including network topology, weights, and tensor mappings, making it run faster on the full range of Intel hardware.
Run inference on Intel CPUs, integrated GPUs, discrete GPUs, and NPUs with a unified API. No rewrites, no hardware-specific code, just consistent, accelerated performance wherever you deploy.
