# AI & Models

## Overview

The [AI & Models](https://hub.luxonis.com/ai) area in Luxonis Hub is built for managing models across the Luxonis ecosystem. It
provides an integrated interface for converting and adapting custom models, along with a growing collection of pre-trained models
prepared for deployment across Luxonis devices. From rapid experimentation to scalable production workflows, Hub enables fast
testing, iteration, and deployment from a single platform.

## Quick Conversion

When you need the fastest path from a raw model file to a deployable Luxonis format, the [Quick
Conversion](https://hub.luxonis.com/ai/tools) interface is the most direct option. It enables rapid, one-off conversions without
creating a model entry or maintaining version history. Just upload your model, convert it immediately, and download a variant
optimized for your Luxonis device.

## Model Registry

For long-term workflows, collaboration, or managing model variants, the [Model Registry](https://hub.luxonis.com/ai/models) serves
as the core of this area of Hub. Here, you can browse a curated collection of public models categorized by task and ready for
deployment, or upload your own models to maintain versions, share them with your team or the community, and keep track of updates
over time.

Unlike Quick Conversion — which focuses on speed and simplicity — the Model Registry includes a more robust workflow for
conversion called [Detailed Conversion](https://docs.luxonis.com/cloud/hubai/model-registry/detailed-conversion.md). This workflow
offers advanced configuration, supports multiple variants of a model, and fits naturally into versioned model management — making
it ideal for production-ready and collaborative development.
