Enterprise AI training data, annotation and evaluation services
A large selection of ready-to-use, ethically sourced datasets across audio, image, video, text and multimodal formats, with advanced filtering and free samples.
Expert-verified labeling for text, audio, image and video using model-first, human-in-the-loop workflows for accuracy and fairness.
High-quality multilingual content for global AI systems, drawing on 500+ languages, dialects and locales.
Global, diverse data collection at scale for training, with privacy and security vetting on every dataset.
The open platform where the machine learning community hosts models, datasets, and AI apps
Search, download, and publish across millions of models and hundreds of thousands of datasets, complete with model cards, versioning, and citations.
Deploy Gradio, Streamlit, or static apps directly from a repository to show off a model, run comparisons, or share a tool with a public link.
Transformers, Diffusers, Datasets, Tokenizers, Accelerate, PEFT, TRL, and smolagents give you end-to-end tooling for training, fine-tuning, and inference.
Inference Providers route a single API to tens of thousands of models from multiple vendors, while Inference Endpoints spin up dedicated GPU hardware on demand.
