# Profiling models

[qc-ai-test-docs-examples/profile-models/](https://github.com/edgeimpulse/qc-ai-test-docs-examples/tree/master/profile-models) contains scripts to quickly run multiple models on CPU and NPU on your Dragonwing development board. This is a great place to quickly track model support and model performance. The README of this repository has all the info you'll need.
