At this point, the product could probably just use a greater integration with more machine learning model tools.

It has some disadvantages because when you're working with very complex models, neural networks if OpenVINO cannot convert them automatically and you have to do a custom layer and later add it to the model. It is difficult.

The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved.
