Hugging Face Hub
FreemiumModels & Datasets
The GitHub of models, datasets and demos.
What it’s for
The Hub hosts over a million open models and datasets plus Spaces for hosting live demos. The transformers and datasets libraries pull straight from it, making it the backbone of the open-source ML ecosystem and the first place to look for any open model.
How to use it
pip install transformers, then from_pretrained('model-id') downloads and runs any open model. Free for public resources; PRO and paid endpoints add private repos and managed inference.
Pricing
Free for public models, datasets and Spaces. PRO is $9/month; Inference Endpoints and dedicated hardware are usage-based.
