The present disclosure provides an application development platform and associated software development kits (“SDKs”) that provide comprehensive services for generation, deployment, and management of machine-learned models used by computer applications such as, for example, mobile applications executed by a mobile computing device. In particular, the application development platform and SDKs can provide or otherwise leverage a unified, cross-platform application programming interface (“API”) that enables access to all of the different machine learning services needed for full machine learning functionality within the application. In such fashion, developers can have access to a single SDK for all machine learning services.
