Hugging Face

Model and dataset repositories, AI libraries, demos, and hosted inference.

  • Hub repositories for models, datasets, and Spaces
  • Libraries including Transformers and Diffusers
  • Inference Providers and dedicated Inference Endpoints

Hugging Face combines a model and dataset hub with development libraries and hosted services. Spaces publishes demo applications; Inference Providers connects applications to partner-hosted models, while Inference Endpoints supplies dedicated managed deployments. Each repository sets its own license, including any restrictions on commercial use.

How pricing works

Costs depend on the service: account plans, storage, Space hardware, inference usage, and dedicated endpoints have different meters. Local model use avoids a hosted inference bill but requires suitable hardware. Check the repository license before selecting either route.
