Model Card

A document recording a model's intended use, performance, and limitations.

A model card is a structured document that accompanies a machine learning model, recording its intended use cases, training data sources, evaluation results across different demographic groups, and known limitations. In AWS, Amazon SageMaker Model Cards provide a standardized way to create, store, and share this documentation, linking it to model versions in the Model Registry. The key exam distinction is that a model card captures full lifecycle context — purpose, fairness metrics, and out-of-scope uses — not just performance numbers, making it a governance artifact supporting transparency and auditability rather than a benchmark summary.
