DagsHub vs Lamin

DagsHub helps developers and teams manage machine-learning projects, from data collection and dataset curation through annotation, experimentation, and model management. A project workspace can hold code, data, experiments, models, pipelines, and annotations together. The platform is designed for text, images, audio, video, documents, medical imaging, and binary files. Experiment tracking supports run comparison, metric and parameter visualization, real-time progress monitoring, and reproducibility. Data Engine provides curation, visualization, quality review, lineage, hard-example mining, labeling, auto-labeling, and data streaming. Official integrations include tools such as GitHub, Google Colab, DVC, MLflow, Jenkins, Label Studio, Google Drive, Weights & Biases, and Hugging Face; hosted projects also have support for the MLflow and Label Studio APIs. DagsHub hosts data but does not provide compute, so projects rely on local, cloud, or edge infrastructure. Enterprise installations can run on-premises, in a VPC, in air-gapped environments, and in OpenShift environments. The Individual plan is free, with stated private-repository limits; paid pricing starts at $99/user/mo billed annually, and a 14-day trial is available.

LaminDB is Lamin's open-source, format-agnostic lakehouse and programmable memory layer for research and development. It tracks data, code and agent activity across notebooks, scripts and workflows, and provides schema-based records for LIMS and ELN use cases, including ontologies and notes. Users can validate and annotate datasets, then manage changes through branching and versioning data and code. Documented integrations include Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Git, Nextflow with Seqera, PyTorch Lightning, Weights & Biases, MLflow and Vitessce. Read/write storage includes local filesystems, AWS S3, S3-compatible services such as MinIO and Cloudflare R2, and Google Cloud Storage; HTTP/HTTPS and Hugging Face are read-only. Lamin provides web, API and self-hosted options. The Free plan is free for open assets and public database queries, with no hosted database listed. Pro is $20 a month billed annually. Team and Enterprise are each $200 a month billed annually per seat; Enterprise includes full on-prem deployment in the customer's AWS account. Lamin says it is SOC 2 certified and encrypts Lamin-managed deployments in transit and at rest. The maker was founded in 2022 and is headquartered in Munich and New York City.
