| Deployment | After training, users can deploy Autopilot models to real-time endpoints or run batch inference jobs. | Generated Mercury apps can be previewed locally, published through MLJAR Platform, or self-hosted with Docker. |
| Headquarters | Seattle, Washington, United States | Łapy, Poland |
| Integrations | Reviewer evidence describes integrations with Amazon S3, IAM, CloudWatch and ECR, while AWS documents Studio and Canvas integration. | The Python package integrates with Mercury to generate prediction apps that support single predictions and batch CSV predictions. |
| Purpose | Autopilot automatically creates machine learning models with full visibility and is now in SageMaker Canvas. | MLJAR AutoML automates supervised machine learning for tabular data, including binary classification, multiclass classification, and regression. |
| Support | AWS provides support plans with proactive guidance, issue resolution, and tools. | MLJAR’s About page invites users to contact the team with questions and says they are happy to help. |
| Training modes | Autopilot supports ensembling with AutoGluon and hyperparameter optimization using Bayesian or multi-fidelity optimization. | The four modes are Explain, Perform, Compete, and Optuna, with defaults that users can configure for algorithms, validation, metrics, time budget, and explanations. |

MLJAR AutoML
MLJAR AutoML automates supervised machine learning for tabular data, including binary classification, multiclass classification, and regression. Users can work through MLJAR Studio notebooks or use the open-source Python package in scripts and notebooks. Its four modes—Explain, Perform, Compete, and Optuna—have configurable choices for algorithms, validation, metrics, time budget, and explanations. Depending on the selected mode and settings, workflows can preprocess data, select and tune models, engineer and select features, and create ensembles. Experiments include model comparisons, validation results, training times, explanations, and reusable artifacts; summaries are available in Markdown and JSON. Fairness-aware training evaluates models against a chosen metric and threshold and can try sample reweighting, but does not guarantee fairness. The Python package integrates with Mercury for prediction apps supporting individual and batch CSV predictions; apps can be previewed locally, published through MLJAR Platform, or self-hosted with Docker. The package is open source under the MIT license and costs nothing. AutoML is designed for supervised tabular tasks, and reports depend on task and settings.
